About Jigsaw Visits
From vibrant cities to hidden small town gems, these national hotspots continue to inspire our British heritage. Discover our daytime jaunts for the best places to eat, shop and relax.
When in Winchester
An hour outside of London, the culturally rich city of Winchester is home to historic landmarks, independent boutiques and one of the most-loved Christmas markets in Europe; open from 22 November - 22 December.
First things first
Jigsaw Winchester sits on the corner of Little Minster Street and the city's main shopping district, High Street. Discover our first ever gifting table this season, as well as the Winter 24 collection for all your Christmas needs.
Coffee Break
Not just a spot for great coffee, General Store sells groceries, provisions, wine, cheese and charcuterie in the heart of Winchester.
Local tip
Visit the National Trust’s City Mill, a restored water mill dating back to Saxon times, before taking a walk along the bank of River Itchen.
Out to lunch
Enjoy all-day breakfast, brunch or lunch at Josie's, a family-run chain open seven days a week; their pancakes are a particular favourite.
Afternoon stroll
You simply can't visit Winchester without going inside the city's famous cathedral. One of the largest of its kind, this breathtaking church is also the resting place of the great English novelist, Jane Austen.
Dinner Date
The Winchester Orangery is a chic, cosy eatery with outdoor seating serving dishes that feature locally sourced ingredients. We highly recommend the French Onion Soup as an indulgent winter warmer.
Stay
You won't have to walk far from the cathedral to find Hotel du Vin. This charismatic hotel resides in a charming Georgian building and is the perfect place to crash after a long day exploring.
