Welcome to The Independent Holiday Shop

Located in the centre of the historic city of Winchester, we are an award winning, fully bonded, independent Travel Agency owned and managed by Hilary Honess and Sharron Brammall.

In November 2025 we celebrated our 20th Anniversary and, to mark the occasion, we held an Open Day in the office. We were thrilled that so many of our lovely clients chose to join us and raise a glass to our achievements.

Our small team of four – Hilary, Sharron, Alison & Olatz - have been together since 2006 and between us have a combined experience in the travel industry of over 100 years.

We have all travelled extensively and love nothing better than helping to plan and book memorable trips whilst sharing our knowledge and experience of different cultures in some of the most amazing destinations around the World.
