The Hotel

Surrounded by greenery, neighbouring the Marwell Wildlife Park, the safari lodge-style Marwell Hotel invites travellers for a relaxing countryside break in Hampshire. A 20-minute drive to the north, the town of Winchester awaits visitors with an array of attractions and historic buildings such as the 900-year-old Winchester Cathedral or The Great Hall of Winchester Castle, famous for its legendary Arthurian Round table.

68 bedrooms split between four lodges feature en suite bathrooms, flat-screen LCD TVs and hospitality trays.

Using local ingredients, the on-site restaurant serves a wealth of British pub classics and European dishes, while the lounge bar menu provides lighter snacks, sandwiches and burgers.

Groupon's Guide To Hampshire

Naturally rich in waterways, wildlife, and rugged terrain, Hampshire offers historic attractions and a variety of outdoor activities such as horse riding, river rafting, and coarse fishing.

Travellers may head to Jane Austen's House Museum, where memorabilia and artefacts that once belonged to the novelist are kept, while a historical outing can commence in Winchester Cathedral where her tomb lies. Straying off the beaten track, consider popping into the ArtSway Gallery in the heart of New Forest, where a rotating collection of local and international artworks is displayed. For those interested in the considerable sky-gliding heritage of the Hampshire coast, The Southampton Hall of Aviation with its vast collection of vintage aircrafts is also worth visiting.
