Overview

If you happen to visit Southampton and have some free time, and if you are fans of Jane Austen, I would like to suggest a trip to her house in Chawton, Hampshire, was Jane Austen's final home. It was within these walls that Jane wrote and revised her six beloved novels. It is the most treasured Austen site in the world.

Jane Austen lived in this inspiring Hampshire cottage for the last eight years of her life. Here her genius flourished and she wrote, revised and had published all six of her globally beloved novels: Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion.

Our private tours offer an exclusive and comfortable way to explore these iconic sites without the hassle of public transportation. Travel in style and luxury with our premium cars and our dedicated team of professional and friendly drivers, ensuring a memorable experience throughout your journey.
