Wonderful 40th Wedding Anniversary Gift

We had a wonderful champagne afternoon tea at Sopwell House. The room the tea was served in was beautifully decorated. The champagne was served in elegant glasses and was very well chilled. The sandwiches were soft, fresh and nicely filled. The scones were warm and delicious and there was a very good variety of cakes. Staff were attentive and supported all of our needs, yet were not intrusive. We would definitely go back.

Amazing 60th

It was my wife’s 60th birthday treat and we had some amazing cocktails in the American bar before heading for lunch. The food was absolutely delicious as you would expect and all the staff extremely attentive. An incredible experience and I couldn’t fault a thing. A superb place for a celebration meal or just a fantastic day out.

Great way to see Portsmouth sites

My wife bought me a voucher for my birthday back in January so I had a year to use it. We went to Portsmouth this week for a 2 day visit. It was fantastic - so much to see able so quick to get around with the pre-paid voucher. I absolutely loved it and I was surprised how much my wife enjoyed it too. We visited the Mary Rose, The Victory and other interesting historical ships in the Dockyard plus museums to see the conservation work being done. Everywhere is friendly, immaculate and so well presented. Can’t recommend it highly enough!
