“Fantastic weekend in a beautiful cottage.”
+Beautiful and thoughtful decoration of the cottage, well-equipped, great shower! The owner had put milk, eggs & wine in the fridge which was much appreciated. I cooked a meal each night and all the equipment I needed was there. Lovely patio & little garden. And it was extremely quiet, despite being really close to the train station and the town centre. We walked everywhere, Winchester is a very walkable town. It helped that we had glorious sunshine every day.
−Can't think of anything.

“A great stay.”
+The location couldn't be more convenient: a very quiet street close to the station and a short walk from central Winchester. Mike's put a lot of thought into the furnishings and decoration and has provided everything you could need. There's an extremely well equipped kitchen and many amenities not usually found in a rental. He's also quick to respond to any enquiry or problem.
−The small bed - needs to be replaced by a king size double. If coming by car be warned: even with the parking permit that's supplied, it's extremely difficult to park in Winchester.

“Absolutely perfect stay. Highly recommend.”
+Such a perfect cottage to stay in. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need with lots of extra supplies and goodies to enjoy. Fabulously clean. Very comfortable furnishings and lovely log fire with a wood supply. Very interesting cottage with lots of history. Handy guide book for any questions you may have but the owner was really good with his communications. Great garden area . Within easy walking distance to Winchester city centre. Could not fault this property. Perfect stay.

“Beautiful quiet haven with easy access to city”
+In a quiet location within easy reach of the city centre, Hang Your Hat is a beautifully presented haven. Mike has thought of everything you could need and provides comprehensive and thoughtful information about the property and city. We were there on a wet weekend and were warm and cosy. One of the most beautiful places we have stayed in the UK.

+The location was good and amenities close by. The cottage was beautifully decorated and very well appointed.
−Despite the owner providing a parking permit for our stay, parking is a problem in Winchester generally.
