Hosted by Jonathan & Vanessa
Jonathan and Vanessa established The Cart House in late 2022 after dedicating a year to renovating the property. Upon discovering the location, they recognised its potential as an outstanding holiday retreat ideally situated for visitors wishing to explore Hampshire. With experience of growing up in the sector and years of renting holiday properties all over the world, they meticulously curated The Cart House to high standards, ensuring it offers both comfort and a welcoming atmosphere, complemented by select technological amenities. Since its launch, The Cart House has consistently held a VisitEngland 4 Star Gold Award and, in 2025, received the VisitEngland ROSE Award, reflecting Jonathan and Vanessa's commitment to guest satisfaction. Every stay is characterised by thoughtful touches that showcase Hampshire and ensure guests feel valued from arrival onward.
