Jane Austen’s House in the picturesque Hampshire village of Chawton is one of the most important literary sites in the world. It was in this inspiring cottage that Jane Austen’s genius flourished and where she wrote, revised, and had published all six of her globally beloved novels. Step back in time to 1816 and follow in Jane’s footsteps; discover the rooms where she lived and wrote and see her writing table, jewellery, letters and first editions of her novels up close.
Explore the pretty cottage garden, try your hand at traditional garden games and enjoy Regency dress up, Regency letter writing, designing and more! Browse the unique rage of gifts and books in the beautiful Gift Shop and relax with an ice cream on the lawn.
Children can discover the secrets and stories of Jane Austen’s life and works via a beautifully illustrated trail and families can follow their visit with a trip to the village playground, set in stunning parkland just opposite the museum.
A range of events take place throughout the year including tours, walks, workshops and talks.
