Discover Chawton: A Walking Tour of Jane Austen's Village

This is the only tour of Chawton led by someone who actually lives in the village: an Italian and British resident with a deep love for the English countryside, who regularly shares its places, traditions and way of life through Passione Campagna Inglese on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.

Laura’s unique perspective combines Jane Austen’s Chawton with the village as it exists today, allowing you to discover not only its literary history but also what it really feels like to live in this very special corner of rural England.

During this two-hour walking tour, offered separately in either Italian or English, Laura will take you on a journey through the village Jane Austen knew and loved. She will reveal its many connections with Austen’s life and novels, while also sharing what it is like to live in an English village today, drawing on her own experience as a resident of Chawton.

The tour is truly is an experience for everyone, not only Jane Austen's enthusiasts: a perfect day trip from London to one of the most beautiful and quintessentially English villages in southern England: a place with a very special atmosphere, offering a unique combination of culture, beauty, English country life and extraordinary connections with one of the giants of English and world literature.
