The property is across the road from the St James' Tavern - a welcoming traditional pub which serves excellent food including an outstanding locally sourced brunch. The apartment's convenient location means it’s near many of the city’s restaurants. For summer evenings and warmer weather, there is a small courtyard garden for guests to enjoy their pre-dinner drinks or morning coffee. Parking permits allow guests on street parking. Please get in touch to discuss longer term let possibilities and reduced rates. Guests are welcome to use the courtyard garden and additional shared garden space. We welcome guests from all walks of life. I believe you should be able to enjoy your holiday uninterrupted however if there is anything you need or would like to know then please do not hesitate to get in touch. There is a comprehensive home pack available in the apartment but I know Winchester very well and would be more than happy to make recommendations. Winchester is a vibrant market city with a number of historic sites of religious and military interest. There are many restaurants to cater for all tastes and a daily market. Christmas in Winchester is particularly magical with events at the Cathedral, a renowned Christmas market and ice rink. The property is located less than a 5 minute stroll from Winchester train station. There is also a bus stop nearby for travel to Southampton and there are easy road links for the M3, M27, and A34 onto the A303. On-street parking is only allowed with a parking permit (visitors permit supplied) however parking is free after 6pm and before 8am Monday - Saturday and free all day Sunday. There is a multi-storey car park a couple of minutes walk away should you require more parking or parking is available at the train station. Possible noise issue for light sleepers, the property only has single glazing (grade II listed) therefore traffic/train noise can occasionally be heard during the night time. We want the space to be welcoming and clean and for you to do as little as possible during your stay, therefore we can arrange for the property to be professionally cleaned with a linen change at additional cost, just get in touch to organise. If you wish to use the sofa bed there will be a £25 extra charge to cover the laundry of the linen. Please let us know if you would like to use the sofa bed and we will get everything ready for your stay.
