Beautifully decorated apartment, with very good quality fixtures and fittings.
Great central location so we walked everywhere in Winchester.
The host could not have been more helpful, with great recommendations for visits/restaurants. She did her best to make our stay as good as it could possibly be.

The Sky Penthouse was perfect in every way, spotlessly clean, comfortable and charming. The host was extremely helpful and thoughtful throughout our stay initially by sending a video on how to access parking and property with recommendations on restaurants etc. There was Prosecco waiting in the fridge, chocolates and snacks, bottled water and fresh flowers. The apartment was a 5 min walk to town. Would happily recommend this property and would be more than happy to return if ever visiting again
Absolutely nothing to dislike

The property was immaculate and beautifully furnished, with lovely extra welcoming touches. It was well equipped for self catering and well positioned for all local places of interest, restaurants, pubs and shops. The host was very friendly and provided lots of useful information.

An immaculate third floor apartment - 2 bed, 1 wc/shower, sumptuously furnished, thoughtfully appointed, luxurious linen and towels, extremely well equipped kitchen, an extensive essentials welcome pack and a cheeky much appreciated gift too! Absolutely THE location to stay in Winchester with the high street and all tourist sights within 5 mins walking distance, free parking for your stay too.
Possible a portable A/C in summer, fans were provided, however being on the top floor and the new efficient windows and insulation - it was a little warm :)

Beautiful, comfortable, spacious apartment easily accessed using videos the owner, Julia sent to us. Julia was very thoughtful in providing a welcoming bottle of wine and snacks. The courtyard garden was stunning! Would definitely stay here again and will recommend to friends.
Great stay, no complaints from us!

Julia's two videos explained entry perfectly. Parking space is easy to access. Apartment is big, bathroom is huge. Welcome snacks and wine were a nice touch! Well stocked coffee/tea/salt/pepper/paper towels/ect. 300yd walk to city center.

My wife and I are pleased to recommend Julia and her apartment, Sky Penthouse, in Winchester, UK. We stayed there for about 16 days in April 2023. The two-bedroom apartment was clean, neat, and very well furnished and equipped, especially the kitchen where we had fine china and all the usual equipment for a kitchen. We cooked several meals without problems.
The living room was large with two very comfortable couches and a great TV. The dining room was just right for the two of us and would accommodate at least six people. Each bedroom had a king-sized bed, and these beds were the most comfortable that we had slept in during our 4-month vacation in Europe. The bathroom was quite nice with a great stand-up, walk-in shower. The views of the rooftops, gardens, and church spires of olde Winchester from the third floor windows were welcoming and seemed to draw us into the ancient history of this first capital of England. The elevator (lift, in UK-ese) worked perfectly. The Sky Penthouse has its own parking space just out the back door.
The apartment is located just one long block (a 5-minute walk) from the pedestrian way through the heart of olde Winchester. It is within easy walking distance to great restaurants and several historical attractions such as the famous Winchester Cathedral, the Great Hall (where King Arthur’s roundtable is), Wolvesey Castle, and the Royal Oak (the oldest pub in England), to name just a few.
Julia helped us settle in and gave us great advice on things to do and places to go and places to eat. She was attentive to our needs and always available if we had questions or needed advice or help with directions.
Winchester is a great place to visit in the UK. It has a population of only about 35,000 and is easy to get around in. If you go, stay in Julia’s Sky Penthouse. It’s in the heart of the olde part of Winchester.
Everything was wonderful. I cannot think of anything that needed to be improved or changed.

the location was perfect and the apartment was like a fully equipped flat
the bed could have been a bit softer for me personally but I understand you can’t cater for all tastes

Fantastic apartment, two comfy big double beds.. Good kitchen area and great sofas for socialising..
Top floor location with lift to access..
Wonderful location, easy to find and 5 minutes walk to the middle of Winchester
Only small issue would be limited storage for extended stays, but great for short breaks.

The host helpfully sent a video ahead of check in explaining how to access the key lock box & a video of the accommodation.
It was an excellent stay, no complaints at all.
Would highly recommend.

Everything! The penthouse was lovely and had everything you needed for comfort and enjoyment. Excellent location - 2 minutes from the cathedral which is where we wanted to go for the Christmas markets. Central location to excellent dining experiences.
Excellent instructions given by Julia meant that it was very easy to find and access the property. Julia was so helpful with her knowledge of the area and took into account everything that we found important. She made it so easy for us.
Nothing could have made it any better. It was perfect for us.

Sky Penthouse is a luxury experience. This is an extremely well located property with parking plus a further road space if needed. The information provided beforehand is set out in short videos to explain how to get into the apartment and also to show you around it. The apartment is well appointed with large comfy beds, lots of storage space, nice bathroom, and comfy living area. TV is a good size too. Kitchen has everything needed to cook full meals and the dining area comfortably seats 4. Julia provides loads of information about Winchester, and gives recommendations for restaurants and activities. We ate at The Ivy and Chesil Rectory which were both outstanding. Its just around the corner from the theatre too which we made use of. A brilliant stay - we will recommend and will return at some point!
