For a family day out, you cannot beat Marwell Zoo, home to over 135 species of animals across 140 acres.

Winchester Schools & Education
Winchester has a reputation for providing excellent schools for all ages and it has become one of the main reasons why people relocate to the city.
Practically all its primary and secondary schools have been rated as good or outstanding by Ofsted.
Due to their popularity, many parents add their names to local school admission waiting lists long before their children start education.
St Peter’s Catholic School, St Faiths CofE and Kings secondary school are among the best-performing and most popular schools in the area all gaining an “outstanding” rating from Ofsted.
Winchester is perhaps most famously regarded as being well serviced by the private sector with many of the best public schools in the country found within the city’s reach.
There is the co-educational Prince’s Mead School just to the north, The Pilgrims’ School boys’ prep, St Swithun’s for girls and of course, the oldest public school in the form of Winchester College.

Winchester Property
Winchester offers a wide variety of properties to suit different preferences and budgets.
You will find a mix of property styles, including Georgian and Victorian homes, as well as traditional period properties. This provides a range of architectural options for those seeking a specific style.
The city also has new developments and individual brand-new houses. These range from one-bedroom apartments to large executive homes located to the west of the city centre.
Winchester’s reputation as an upmarket location and its proximity to London has contributed to rising house prices which are often out of reach for many.
However, it is still possible to buy a one-bedroom property for under £120,000 ideal for first-time buyers if you have the patience to wait.
The most expensive streets are found in The Valley and Twyford areas, where properties can sell for several million pounds.
It is advisable to consult local estate agents or property websites to get the most accurate and up-to-date information on available properties and prices in Winchester.
