Winchester is a unique heritage city just an hour South-West of London, with its magnificent Cathedral, award-winning pubs and restaurants and a tempting array of independent shops, all surrounded by fabulous rolling countryside and pretty Hampshire Villages.
A place of worship for over 900 years, Winchester’s world-famous cathedral is as remarkable for its hidden treasures (including the Winchester Bible and Jane Austen’s tomb) as its spectacular architecture. The only remaining part of Winchester Castle, the legendary Great Hall and King Arthur’s Round Table is also well worth visiting. Other destinations include Winchester City Mill, the medieval Wolvesey Castle, Abbey House and Gardens, and St Cross Hospital, displaying stunning medieval architecture.
A paradise for shopping connoisseurs, Winchester boasts a tempting array of independent shops, boutiques and markets amongst beautiful scenic settings.
Perfect Weekend can suggest the ideal note; for your stay in this richly cultures City.
