Luxury self-catering accommodation in Winchester
Quietly cosmopolitan but holding an air of village charm, Winchester's cobbled streets and burbling river create a calming atmosphere.
From country walks to English heritage visits, there really is no limit to a long weekend in Winchester. One of its strongest appeals is its easy access into the Great British countryside offering the perfect self-catering break. Fringing this cathedral city and just a short drive from the historical centre, the South Downs National Park offers miles upon miles of cycle trails, soaring white cliffs and outstanding views over pretty Hampshire.
The author of Pride and Prejudice is rather famed in these parts, and for those wanting to walk in her footsteps, visit the house she lived in or even sit under a tree where she may have revised some of her oldest novels, Winchester and the surrounding area are positively bursting with locations and tales. In Winchester, join the Jane Austen trail to learn with a guide, or simply go it alone at your own pace.
