Listed building so it was a novel experience. My toilet was down the corridor and I had a bath but no shower. Owners were very friendly.

Liked: Staff & service
The bed and breakfast was good. The room was large and warm. Nice big windows and a desk. The internet worked well. There could have been an improved TV and Remote. A few more teas, coffee and biscuits. A refreshed tray. The bathroom was large and nice as well. Three guests could have slept in the room. It had a couch and (2) chairs. Dottie and her daughter were very nice. I enjoyed my stay for (2) nights. Helen DeVries

Weekend get away
Really good location within walking distance to town. Beautiful property with lots of quirky features that added to character. Our hosts were really nice and had a good chat with Rosie during breakdown. I would say the only negative was the bed. I found it a bit too hard for my comfort level and struggled to sleep but it was only for one night so was ok ; )

We absolutely loved our stay at St. John's Croft! Such a dreamy setting for a very lovely home. Our room was gorgeous and had a beautiful view of the garden and town beyond. Zoe's breakfast was delicious! Winchester is one of my favorite places and I know we will be back--and now we have found the perfect place to stay.

We found the double bed to be rather small and the mattress too firm for our liking but our room had an additional more comfortable single bed which we got made up.

We had absolutely no complaints except for the lack of en suite, although the bathroom was private and a short distance from our room.
