Portsmouth is a beautiful water city in Hampshire and is the gateway to several major attractions such as Stonehenge, Winchester, Bath, Brighton, Chichester, Isle of Wight, and several other places. But Portsmouth itself is steeped in treasures, history, and culture. You will never be short of anything to do. To get the most out of your time we suggest that you stay for at least 4 days.
