Hotel du Vin – Winchester

sitting room

A bit on our hotel…this is a lovely place. From the moment we walked through the doors I was charmed. It is a Georgian building dating from 1715 – I’m not sure what the building’s original function was, but the complex consists of a few small buildings. There are only 24 rooms none with room numbers but all with names based on wines – ours is Freixenet. We have a lovely sitting terrace outside of our door which is along a pathway lined with huge trees, shrubberies, smaller plants and flowers – delightful! This is the perfect spot to spend a few days before the cruise.
