Jane Austen House Museum, Chawton, England. Full Tour.
Jane Austen is one of England’s greatest writers, her novels are appreciated around the world and frequently adapted for film and tv. The Jane Austen House Museum lovingly preserves the house where she spent the last eight years of her life. My film takes you on a full tour around Jane Austen’s cottage.
Jane was born in Hampshire in 1775. She was the daughter of a rector and one of 8 children. The family moved to Bath in 1801. After the death of her father, Jane, her mother and sister returned to Hampshire, to live at Chawton cottage.
The years that Jane spent at Chawton cottage were happy and rewarding creatively, she wrote and published the novel Emma and completed 3 further novels including Pride & Prejudice.
Chawton Cottage is located in the tranquil Hampshire English village of Chawton. Today visitors enter through the courtyard. Visitors may sit and relax in the peaceful garden or watch an informative film in the summer house. After enjoying the garden enter the main house:
The Drawing Room - Jane’s father, George Austen, encouraged learning and creative thinking. On display in this room is the Mahogany bookcase from which he would have encouraged Jane to read. Early every morning Jane enjoyed practising playing the piano in this room.In the evening Jane would sit with her mother and sister and they would read and do needlework.
The Dining Room - This is the room where Jane would write. Pride of place on display is the table where Jane sat and wrote her novels. She wrote every day, sitting by the window for light. She was very modest about her writing and during her lifetime Jane’s works were published anonymously.
The Austen Family Room - This room was Mrs Austen snr’s bedroom but now houses a collection of family artefacts, portraits and items of furniture.
Jane’s Bedroom - This small room, overlooking the courtyard, is the one which Jane shared with her sister Cassandra. Here Jane would read to her sister the novels that she was writing. The room contains a replica of Jane’s bed. Jane’s health faded early in 1816, it is believed that she suffered from Addisons disease. In the latter weeks of her life she was confined to bed. In May of that year she was taken to Winchester to be treated but sadly passed away on the 18 July.
The Admiral’s Room - Two of Jane’s brothers had successful careers in the navy and the room houses memorabilia linked to the brothers’ lives in the navy.
The Exhibits Room - Here among the items on display are Jane’s gold ring set with a turquoise stone. Also on display is a quilt expertly sewn by Jane. The quilt is made from approximately 250 diamond shaped segments.
Handy to know - Allow 1 ½ hours for your visit, but you are allowed to stay as long as you wish. Tours are not provided.

A Visit to Jane Austen's Home in Chawton, England
Jane Austen is said to have changed the literary world forever. Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, were huge successes, as we're get other works. She started writing in her twenties and passed away at forty-one. She is deservedly loved and admired through the world, especially in the United Kingdom.
We rented our home and got rid of our stuff so we could explore the world unencumbered.

Visiting Jane Austen's House | Chawton and Winchester
Hey guys! My name's Michelle, and I'm studying abroad in Oxford, England for five weeks. This week we visited both Chawton and Winchester, which was really cool because we got to see our programs in real life! In Chawton we visited Jane Austen's house, her brother's house, and her mother and sister Casandra's graves. We also learned how Edward Austen Knight was adopted by wealthy distant cousins, allowing him to provide the cottage for his mother and two sisters, where Jane Austen spent most of her time writing. In Winchester, we visited the Winchester Catherdral where we saw Austen's grave as well as the house where Jane Austen lived out her final days. Finally, we visited the ruins of Wolvesey Castle!
Please like and subscribe! I put out videos every Tuesday and Friday. Make sure to hit the notification bell to see next Tuesday's video about Oxford Castle, the Tolkien Exhibition, and the Bodleian Library!
