The Fox is an excellent B&B with attached first class dining. The staff were great about our late arrival due to M3 closure, phoning to get our breakfast order and being prepared to leave a key for us. Breakfast is one of the best in Winchester.

This was a lucky find. More an inn with rooms than a full-on hotel. Everything about this place is quiet quality. Lovely staff, good food and service and very reasonable rates. A great location too with plenty of lovely gardens and villages to visit. We will definitely be back.
