West Walk, Forest of Bere
Park
👍 Good place to go for a walk in the woods. Lots of parking spaces. It is pay and display but apparently not checked very often. £1.90 for two hours though isn't too unreasonable.
There is a hot drinks and snacks cabin although due to the poor Internet connectivity, it is cash only.
Lots of space t...

Rock Up
Rock climbing
👍 I have not been to such a place before, it was a tad expensive to me. My son took his 5 year old daughter and probably didn't get the most out of it, my daughter was with her 7 year old cousin who faired better. For the cost you really hope the children can get the full experience. Overall it is a p...

Winchester Science Centre & Planetarium
Tourist attraction
👍 Awesome concept and very well thought out. Only downside is that it was a little smaller than anticipated. We expected this trip to last most of the day, however it’s a half day outing at the very most. Would have been 5 stars if it wasn’t for the cheeky extra car parking charge that wasn’t needed,...

👍👍 Absolutely tranquil place with stunning views. The place has plenty of trails to walk along or if you prefer you can ride on a bicycle in some parts. I visited on a lovely warm day with lots of sun and I took some amazing photos. Parking (where I parked anyway) is free too, so that is a nice bonus....

Bishop's Waltham Palace
Historical place museum
👍👍 Free to enter the ruins, with parking on the adjacent station road. This Palace was quite a big concern, as you can tell from the extensive ruins.
Currently some parts are under restoration, but all still clearly visible. Information boards detail the Palace, what remains and how it would've looke...

Creech Wood
Park
👍👍 Fairly busy Saturday morning with plenty of dog walkers and only a couple of parking spaces free. The ground is very uneven so take care when driving into the carpark, many large pot holes and sunken surfaces. Plenty of pathways into the woods for a stroll and very pleasant on a sunny morning. If th...

The Grange at Northington
Historical place museum
👍 It's a very large building rather in the middle of nowhere! A beautiful "nowhere" though. We disbelieved Google Maps at first and missed the entrance and ended up driving all the way along a pretty but gravelly track! Google has it right! As soon as you are off the main road turn right. Could not ge...

Winchester City Museum
Museum
👍 Small museum highlighting the history of Winchester and the wider area.
Tickets are reasonable and last the year although I struggle to see the repeatability of this unless they have specific events
