One of UK’s ‘most historically important residences’ turned into holiday let

• Winchester Cathedral has opened its deanery for short-term holiday lets for the first time, with prices starting at £4,500 per week.
• The historic 16th-century property, which accommodates up to 10 people, will be available for a limited period until a new dean takes residence next year.
• Money generated from the bookings will directly support the maintenance and daily operation of Winchester Cathedral, which costs £14,000 per day.
• Guests will stay within the Inner Cathedral Close, experiencing its historical features, including a 70-foot gallery and a Roman mosaic.
• Georgia Metcalfe, founder of French Bedroom, a company that aided in the renovation, described The Deanery as “one of the most historically and architecturally important residences in the country”.
