Dummer Vacation Packages

It's such a shame! The building of the old Mercure hotel holds ok. The double room was spacious, clean, comfortable and with an amazing close view of the Winchester cathedral (practically over its grounds). But there was no milk for the tea in the room and the television did not show a single BBC channel (not even radio stations), had no access to satelite, internet or cable. When I called reception to ask if perhaps there was something I was not doing properly with the remote control, I was asked if the TV was showing other channels. When I said that only commercial channels seemed to be available, I was told that this was what was on offer and that's it. In some way, I'm grateful for the experience because it opened my eyes to how miserable life would be without the BBC service. I'll certainly pay the BBC licence with gusto now!

Very clean, good size room, friendly staff, nice cooked breakfast and fast service

Great hotel, beautiful location by a river. Fantastic breakfast, lots of choice and everything was fresh. Highly recommended.

Amazing stay at Enchanted manor, from the moment we walked in the vibes were warm and friendly. The food and drinks were delicious and the red squirrels and badger feeding in the evenings was an amazing experience. Could not recommend this place more.

Lovely pub and very nice room looking over the water and the nearby marina with a big comfortable bed and beautiful spacious bathroom. All the staff were very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The weather was very ‘British’ (wet and windy!) during our short stay, so we loved the cosy ambience of the bar and the beautiful open fire. Ate there both nights and were grateful that the food was very good, meaning we didn’t need to venture outside. The second evening, having eaten out during the day, we didn’t need a full meal so ordered a selection of starters to share, Tapas style, which wasn’t a problem and just the right amount of food for us. We chose this pub for its proximity to Buckler’s Hard, which is only a few miles away and well worth a visit. Due to the time of year, our midweek stay and the weather, the place and surrounding areas were quiet, but we imagine the pub itself and everywhere around it would - deservedly - be heaving in the summer.
