Room was absolutely lovely, very homely and Dotty made us feel very welcome. We felt like we were at an old friends house for breakfast the next morning, it's a beautiful kitchen/dining area and Dotty made the best scrambled eggs. Would highly recommend.

Very neat and tidy bedroom, warm & friendly welcome, excellent location for Winchester centre, only a 5 minute walk. St Johns Croft has a lovely quirky ambience, the whole place smells of lovely old timber, gardens are delightful, the breakfast wholesome, much of it locally sourced.

A lovely place to stay - home from home.

Really enjoyed our stay. Very friendly hosts and liked the accommodation very much. Only drawback was that the wifi connection in my room was unreliable but I think the hosts plan to get that fixed. Really enjoyed the cosy informality. Definitely plan to return.
