Our Location
We are blessed with a truly idyllic location. Just an hour south of London by direct train, with easy access to all the major travel hubs, and yet we are surrounded by the stunning countryside of the South Downs National Park. The school is tucked away between Winchester Cathedral and Winchester College, within the secure and secluded Cathedral Close. Moments from our front door is the heart of the historic city of Winchester, or step through our back gate to find water meadows, countryside, and the South Downs Way.
Does your son love to sing?
Find out what it's like to be a Quirister
We have an exciting opportunity for young boys to sing for the Winchester College Chapel Choir and be educated and board at The Pilgrims' School. To find out more, book for the 'Be a Quirister for the Day' event, taking place on Saturday 11 June 2022. This is a great opportunity to sing with a famous choir, eat in the mediaeval College Hall and play football in the beautiful grounds.
