Staying in Winchester and what to do for holidaymakers
The Winchester Hat Fair, which doesn’t really have much to do with hats at all, is the longest running street theatre, music and comedy festival in the UK, held during the first weekend in July. There is plenty on the historical front to do. In the centre, the Gurkha and Royal Green Jackets Museum are very popular and for those who might want to do something that involves taking in the wonderful restaurants, cafes and shopping along the way, there are numerous historical trails including Tudor, Military, Royal, Winchester Quiz and Walking trails as well as a Wheelchair Visitor trail.
