A short stay in Hampshire (just isn’t enough!)

November 5, 2024 by Amanda ChalmersLeave a Comment

While visiting family in Hampshire, I decided to make a weekend of it and accept an invitation to make our base the newly rebranded voco® Winchester Hotel & Spa. Previously part of the Holiday Inn group of hotels, we were lucky enough to be among the first to have the voco® experience as the wraps came off a £2m refurbishment.

The town retains its California Western feel, but now … [Read more...]

And while the country has come a long way, it’s also kept many of the things that make it such a neat experience. There’s far too much to see for … [Read more...]
