10 Speed To 11 Speed
I've just bought a winter bike but it's a 10 speed shimano ultegra set up.
I'm gona change to a 11 speed shimano set up.
I have different wheels with a shimano11-32 cassete on it and have bought a shimano long cage derauler.
Is that all I have to do, or do I have to change the shifters, some people say yes and some no.

You definitely have to change the shifters. Probably not worth the hassle, unless you really like spannering.
Yes you'll need to change the shifters.
Personally I'd have stuck with 10-speed if its a winter bike and gone with the 12-30 cassette option for 6700 if you need the range for the hills. It's a lot of faff for an extra cog.
