Charming period cottage quietly situated in one on Winchester's quaint old streets.

This renovated cottage still retains the old features which give it plenty of character - old fireplaces and doors and twisty old staircase.

It is ideally situated in the city centre, so all the historic sites, the world class restaurants, bars, live theatre and markets are a very short stroll, there are also many delightful walking and cycling trails along the river and up onto the famous SouthDowns.

This cottage makes a very homely and comfortable base to come back to after a day out exploring or at work, and the beautifully fitted out kitchen/dining room invites you to enjoy a take away or home cooked meal.

During the summer months you can enjoy the garden with its terrace for al-fresco dining or relaxing, this is accessed by a flight of quite steep steps which are unsuitable for those with restricted mobility and small children should be supervised when playing on them.

The cottage is a terraced cottage, typical of the Victorian old houses in many cities in England, this means it has other houses attached on each side of it, the area directly outside the back door is a yard half of which belongs to this cottage and half to the neighbouring cottage, there is a steep flight of stairs which is also shared with the next door house leading to another terrace which is for the exclusive use of guests in our cottage, each cottage has its own terraced garden.

The cottage is located in a quiet pretty old street which is part of a conservation area, as such we are unable to change the old windows, so they are single glazed and in the winter months are likely to have some condensation on the inside, but we provide attractive plantation shutters which improve the heat insulation at the front of the house - the windows at the back are all double glazed..

    We had a wonderful stay at this house. It was very clean and cozy. There were movies for the kiddo to watch, and it was easy walking to shops and groceries. The house was perfect for us.

    The house was well presented & as per the published description. It was in a very good location with a very easy walk into the city & attractions. The outside sitting area was good, although as stated by the owner, the steps were steep but manageable & I am in my eighties. The outside table has seen better days. Inside was OK, again the stairs were steep but manageable. An enjoyable place to stay.

    Very unpleasant experience for the 10 days I stayed in the house. The furniture in the house is very dilapidated and the outdoor furniture was broken and usuable when I arrived. In addition, on one day there was a gabbage came out in the courtyard which I suppose is private. Upon enquiry, the host told me that it was shared with another house. Subsequently, the information shown on the website was amended accordingly. The host is not very friendly at all.

    Really enjoyed our stay - the cottage is very nice and really couldn't be closer to the centre for access to historic sites (cathedral, college etc) and shops. Also convenient for walks out along the river and up St Catherine's Hill for great views. Good kitchen facilities etc within the property. Host was helpful as and when needed.

    We spent two weeks at the Pilgrims Way cottage. It was clean, comfortable and within 7-8 minutes walk to High Street and the Cathedral. The kitchen was fully furnished and we cooked several meals for 7 people there. The beds were comfortable and the shower worked perfectly. We spent time with our son and his family who live in Winchester and it was a special time of year. The Christmas market and the activities at the Cathedral were an added treat. We will definitely consider booking this cottage for future visits.

    This is a lovely, comfortable and clean cottage. Ideal location for exploring Winchester on foot. The photo of the rear steps is accurate but guests should note that access from the front of the property is easy with only one small step up to the front door so don’t be put off. Parking permit provided. Caroline was easy to communicate with. An all round enjoyable stay.
