Exploring Winchester

Winchester is famous for being the former capital of Wessex, and the home of Round Table from the Arthurian legends.

This integral piece of England’s history is still housed in Winchester’s Great Hall, where it has been for the past 700 years. Nearby, you’ll also find Westgate, a fortified gateway which was used to keep debtors in prison for 150 years.

Take advantage of the rich history all around you with an exploration of Winchester’s various heritage attractions. Follow the Keats Walk, which traces the steps the famous poet John Keats took during his own stay in this charming city. You can enjoy a self-guided walk or contact one of the many qualified tour guides in the city for an in-depth experience.

King Alfred the Great has an indelible presence on the city of Winchester, and you can take it all in on the City Walk. Starting at the Winchester Tourist Information Centre, this trail will guide you from the king’s statue in The Broadway to his last known resting place, in the Hyde Abbey Garden.

Between Winchester and nearby Chichester, you’ll find plenty of literary inspiration in the rolling South Downs countryside. This is the same scenery that inspired Jane Austen and naturalist Gilbert White, and there are plenty of picturesque views to enjoy here.

If you’re looking to indulge in the modern side of Winchester, make sure to check out the wide variety of eateries, inns, restaurants and pubs for a taste of the local produce. The Hampshire Food Festival and Winchester Farmers’ Market are both must-sees for any food lover, and the Itchen Valley Brewery will quench your thirst.
