THE Winchester Christmas Market has once again made a prestigious top 20 list.

European Best Destinations has named the market, which is set up annually in the cathedral grounds, as 14th best in the continent. It is the only one in the UK to make the top 15.

Budapest in Hungary topped the chart, receiving 39,448 votes – over 32,000 more than Winchester.

In 2018, Winchester's market was voted second best in the UK by Booking.com and one of the top eight in Europe by the New York Post.

This year it will stay until December 22, opening from 10.30am every day.
