4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Research into Portsmouth's B & Bs indicated that they were not going to be cheap - however the Upper Mount House was priced more reasonably than most. If you add to that the good accommodation, large car park (a rarity), free wifi, good breakfast and good service - then you have a bargain. In addition whilst being tucked away and... More

We stayed at Upper Mount House for the 4th time and as usual had a great stay. Wayne was delightful and serves a lovely breakfast. As normal nothing was too much bother for him. The B&B is extreamly clean and welcoming, the rooms are all different and very reasonably priced. Would deffiantly recommend to anyone staying in the area

We have stayed here before, it is a lovely relaxed bed and breakfast in a big house. Wayne will greet you if you know your approximate arrival time....he lives right nearby. We had three rooms for our party and stayed three days. Lovely size rooms, and nice decor which can be seen online. The breakfast is great, lots to choose... More

This was our second stay at Upper Mount House and this time was even better than the last, which was 2 years ago. Wayne has obviously redecorated the rooms that I can comment on. We stayed in room 1, which I thought was superb and so tastefully decorated yet retained the old world charm of a more genteel era. Due... More

We were traveling by car without an itinerary. The Upper Mount House was recommended to us by another B&B that was fully booked. We walked there and phoned Wayne, who drove over within 5-10 minutes with a warm greeting and the keys to our spacious room. We walked all over town, getting a great introduction to the pleasant city of... More

Having been let down at short notice by another guest house, we were provided with the contact details for Upper Mount. Wayne was very accommodating, friendly and greeted us on arrival. Due to horrendous rain, I rang to say we would be arriving later than expected, but this was no problem and Wayne was grateful that I called. The room... More
