A lovely country house with excellent facilities. Friendly owners.

Warm welcome, delicious breakfast and very cosy room. Everything was perfect!

The owners were very nice and very helpful, made us feel very welcome , lovely grounds and a good quality tennis courts. Home had a lovely character

Spacious bedroom, Lovely garden view from the room, Superb breakfast in the beautiful room, Long drive way to the Georgian House that made us feel we were approaching the famous manor house,,,,, I even had a go at lovely Bluthner grand piano in the lounge. We will definitely come back with friends! Thank you souch for relaxing/enjoyable stay!!

I stayed while on a trip for work. I much prefer the traditional properties than staying in a soulless travel lodge type hotel.

Excellent breakfast. Friendly welcoming hosts and beautiful house with comfortable spacious rooms and lovely views in a great setting. It felt like a little bit of luxury.

A charming well maintained house & grounds with the owner's family delighted to help in any way they can. A super experience which we will make every effort to repeat.

Location was amazing. Very quiet beautiful gardens to walk in. House was like a smaller version of Downton Abbey. Breakfast was very good with a selection of continental or full English. Hosts were very friendly and knowledgable about the area.

The house and grounds were delightful and the family extremely welcoming, friendly, helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was just right.

The house is just brilliant and has been modernised where appropriate, en-suite, electrics etc, and beautifully maintained in the original form to ensure the character of this great place is not lost and can be enjoyed by those that can appreciate it. The house is complemented perfectly by its' custodians. The family, 3 generations work together to colour and enhance your stay as staff maybe, couldn't. You are made to feel perfectly comfortable in someone else's home.

Hosted by The Williams Family

The Williams Family
Hollybank House is a Country House B&B and is a lovely alternative to a hotel, located in Emsworth between Portsmouth and Chichester, with free wi-fi and credit card facilities. On the outskirts of Emsworth at the top of a long private drive Hollybank House is a beautiful Georgian family home in a mature 10 acre garden, offering Bed and Breakfast accommodation in a wonderfully quiet haven but within easy reach of Portsmouth, the Historic Dockyard and Ferry Port, Chichester, Goodwood, Hayling Island, Chichester Harbour and the South Downs. Friendly, comfortable accommodation whether you are on business, visiting friends and family, exploring our diverse area, attending an event at Goodwood, enjoying a relaxing few days, or wanting a good nights rest before a Channel crossing. The perfect location for a family reunion or house party for a group of friends. Hollybank House was built in 1825 with many beautiful architectural features which remain unchanged. The house, which is a family home, offers spacious, friendly accommodation and guests enjoy breakfast around the large table in the elegant dining room.
Viv, Anna, Ian and Roz Williams look forward to welcoming you into our home now in its fourth generation of the Williams family.
The old fishing village of Emsworth is at the centre of a fascinating area with Portsmouth and its Historic Dockyard and the new Mary Rose Museum to the West, Chichester, a walled Roman Cathedral City with its famous Festival Theatre, and Goodwood, to the East, the South Downs National Park to the North and Chichester Harbour, an area of ‘Outstanding Natural Beauty’, to the South, all within a 10 mile radius. There is a large variety of restaurants and pubs in the town, providing a excellent range of food from a Michelin Star Restaurant to harbourside cafes. The Historic Dockyard at Portsmouth, featuring HMS Victory, HMS Warrior and the new Mary Rose Museum together with a boat trip around Portsmouth Harbour and all its associated history, makes a day out on its own without even visiting the shopping and restaurants at ‘Gunwharf Quays’ and the spectacular 130 m Spinnaker Tower from which the view of Portsmouth and the Solent is stunning.
