We were warmly welcomed by Jane our genuinely lovely landlady. We were shown to our immaculate, if not a little tight, room which was scrupulously clean, with a good size bed and its own front door.  …

Great place to stay if visiting this area. Wonderful host, Jane, who cooks a "mean" breakfast which sets us up for the day. I can highly recommend this guesthouse. So clean, tidy and peaceful. Absolutely brilliant!! |TATA family stay over weekend of 27/09 to 30/09

We stayed 2 nights for a wedding in Bosham. Wow what a lovely b & b, the owner was simply brilliant from start to finish, couldn't accommodate us more. Room was very clean and breakfast was really good. We would definitely stay again and recommend the Boathouse to family and friends.

What a wonderful stay. Jane was fantastic and made me feel right at home. Rooms were perfect in a lovely country setting. Was the perfect place to stay during Goodwood Revival, nice and close, but also close to so many other amenities.

Enjoyable stay ( again ). Jane is an extremely good host. The room was immaculate, clean and the Hypnos bed very comfortable. Breakfast is cooked individually and very enjoyable. Jane's garden is wonderful place to sit and relax. Looking forward to staying again next year.

What a lovely place - Jane was there to greet me on arrival and show me to my room. The room was quiet, comfortable and well appointed with coffee machine, toiletries, biscuits and a posy of flowers. Breakfast was superb, made even better outside on the patio.
