Staying in Portsmouth
There are attractions and things to do almost by the bucket-load in Portsmouth including miles of waterfront and beaches, The Pyramids entertainment complex, D-Day (closed until Spring 2018), Royal Marines and Cumberland Natural History Museums, as well as less sedate walking, cycling, tennis, swimming , yachting, watersports and so much more. And for the self-catering holiday maker, as in any major city, you won’t be disappointed with the food available from a rich panoply of shops selling produce from the ‘four corners’ of the globe. It’s also a great place for general shopping, and the one thing you will find with no trouble is a maritime-themed gift.
