We believe that dogs are part of the family and there is no need to leave any four-legged guests behind for your staycation. We have created special packages for overnight stays in our bedrooms that we have designated as dog friendly.

They made me and my little dog so welcome. A dog bed, toy and treats for him. Very good value and lovely food.

In the leafy area of Hyde in Winchester, this charming traditional English pub now offers brand new, high-standard 4-star en suite guest accommodation in a great location.



Close to all of Winchester’s amenities and only a short walk from the city centre and the train station, the King Alfred introduced its brand new en suite rooms in March 2008. The rooms feature all the modern comforts and facilities you need in a relaxing base, including LCD flat-screen TVs, radio and tea/coffee making facilities. Guests can also take advantage of the dining facilities and the charming garden.

Easy check in, staff was very helpful. I arrived early and my room was ready. Location was close to the train station and a short walk into the center. The breakfast in the closet refrigerator was a wonderful idea and was everything I needed to start my day. I had lunch downstairs in the pub and it was also good. I would book it again in an instant.

In the beautiful Hampshire countryside, this colonial-style hotel has a pool, a sauna and free parking. Marwell Zoo is opposite the hotel and both Winchester and Southampton are within a 10-mile radius for the property.

The staff were all lovely which makes a place. Dinner and breakfast were both excellent & I loved the swimming pool.

This 4-star Georgian coaching inn offers a traditional pub and restaurant serving fresh local produce. Surrounded by Hampshire countryside, it features individually styled rooms with free Wi-Fi.

Dating back to 1810, The Kings Head is fitted with antique furnishings and fireplaces. It is supposed that the inn was given its present name for its close connection with the family of Oliver Cromwell.

Very charming and professional staff in a most lovely setting with cozy rooms in a darling Hampshire village. Quite close to Winchester and there's some public transport if you don't have a car to get you down to Hursley. Worth a detour for the Sunday roast!

    Lovely interior design and attention to detail. Very stylish and well thought out layout of the room and shared living space. Really nice shower gel, shampoo, etc (I don't normally notice). Top marks for the ethical loo paper and extra points for having my favourite brand of unbleached tea bags! And thank you for the excellent welcome chocolate (delicious!). So pleased to have found Two Bare Feet, really enjoyed my stay and look forward to coming back again. Thank you Hannah.

    The whole environment and interior design was quirky and interesting and as expected having read the reviews. Great to be able to access the kitchen area and get a hot drink at any time day or night. Breakfast was fine. Plumbing was quite quiet considering (can be so noisy in these places), ensuite shower was nice and the bathroom overall was lovely. Car parking nearby was useful.

    Our stay at Esme’s was absolutely delightful. Perfectly situated for easy access to all that Winchester has to offer. Esme was very welcoming and an exceptional host. Our room was decorated beautifully - such an eye for interior design! Everything was spotless and we had such a good sleep as the bed was so comfortable. Lovely extras left for us to enjoy. Would highly recommend.
