Located on the edge of the South Downs National Park, Winchester is a city packed with culture and filled with vibrant shops, restaurants and pubs, where you will be charmed by ancient streets and surroundings as you enjoy the best of both worlds; bustling county town meets scenic countryside.
From your central base at the Mercure Winchester Wessex Hotel, you can explore this magnificent city on foot before venturing further afield to picturesque riverside villages, the county of Hampshire and stunning New Forest scenery.
This tour is perfect to customise, as there are so many great places within reach. To get you started, please find below our suggested itinerary below.
We've included suggested attraction visits (at an extra charge) to make your tour even more memorable, and to cater for those not bowling - why not visit Portsmouth’s Historic Dockyard, or stay close to home with a visit to the legendary Cathedral?
Please note all attractions and fixtures mentioned are subject to availability.
The executive coach will pick-up from your bowls club (or location of your choice) and proceed to the hotel.
After a hearty breakfast, we head to Beaulieu- noted as one of the prettiest villages in the New Forest. Situated at the head of the tidal Beaulieu River, the village dates back to the 13th century, and is great for a riverside picnic.
Spend the morning at leisure or take in the magnificent cathedral on a guided tour.
Today we journey to Portsmouth- the Waterfront City. With its proud maritime history, Portsmouth offers world-class visitor attractions, including the Historic Dockyard.
We’ll say a fond farewell to Winchester and make our journey home.
