Walking what feel like hundreds of steps up to the top of St Giles Hill in Winchester for the first time, can feel like a whole lot of effort. But after visiting once, I can promise you’ll understand why the effort is worth it! Upon making it to the top, not only are you greeted by a beautiful park, surrounded by the most beautiful houses (I dream of summer arriving again so I can enjoy picnics with fresh sandwiches and lemonade) but also a panoramic view across the whole of Winchester.

I can stand for what feels like hours, picking out the Cathedral, the High Street, and even the hospital right in the distance! Sometimes rushing around the city you forget about all the beautiful parts it holds and seeing them all together is a lovely reminder of where to explore next!
