Explore Winchester — before your adventure begins

Picking up your campervan in Winchester? Take a moment to explore the city first. Before you hit the road, a last wander is well worth it — Winchester has plenty to offer to build the excitement for the journey ahead.

History and heritage

Winchester was the capital of England before London took over, and that deep history is embedded in every street. The Cathedral, begun in 1079, has the longest nave of any Gothic cathedral in Europe and contains the grave of Jane Austen. The Great Hall on Castle Avenue is all that remains of Winchester Castle and houses the painted Winchester Round Table — a medieval creation that has hung on the wall since at least the 14th century. The City Museum on The Square traces Winchester's story from Roman Venta Belgarum through Saxon capital to modern market town, giving genuine depth to any visit before a Camplify campervan trip.

Local food and markets

Winchester's high street market runs on most days, with stalls along the pedestrianised section selling Hampshire watercress, locally baked bread, and seasonal produce from the Itchen Valley. The Chesil Rectory on Chesil Street — a 600-year-old building — serves modern British food in one of the oldest surviving houses in the city. For motorhome provisions, the Winchester Farmers' Market on the second and last Sunday of each month is one of the largest in the country, with over 90 stalls stretching along the High Street from the Buttercross to the King Alfred statue.

Old town and landmarks

Winchester's medieval heart is remarkably walkable. Kingsgate, one of only two surviving medieval city gates, leads into Cathedral Close and past the Pilgrims' School, whose buildings incorporate parts of the original priory. The College, founded by William of Wykeham in 1382, can be visited and its cloistered grounds feel properly timeless. A walk along the River Itchen from the City Mill — a working watermill managed by the National Trust — through the water meadows to St Cross Hospital, a medieval almshouse still dispensing the Wayfarer's Dole, captures something essential about Winchester. It is a walk worth taking before collecting your Camplify motorhome.

The best thing about a campervan holiday: everything you need is right there with you. Most vehicles from private owners on Camplify are fully equipped — often with more care and attention than you'd find from a commercial hire company.

• Kitchenette with hob, sink and fridge

• Comfortable sleeping areas with bedding or sleeping bag option

• Shower and WC (on many models)

• Camping chairs, table and awning for outdoors

Little extras for an unforgettable experience

Many owners in Winchester include extras: a coffee maker, Bluetooth speaker, camping crockery or even a bike rack. Check the listing for full details — or message the owner through the Camplify messaging system.

Travelling with pets?

Many Camplify owners welcome dogs and other pets. Use the pet-friendly filter to find vehicles where your four-legged friend is welcome. Some owners even provide dog bowls and blankets.
