Top Cafes in Froyle, Hampshire

Very well done and pretty good value for £13.50.
Ticket gives you multiple entries for a year which is great but not helpful if you live in another country.
Pack your lunch to take with you and picnic in the garden when you're done in the house. Chairs, rugs and cushions provided. Plus there are Regency dress up clothes to try on.

As a Jane Austen fan, I loved this museum. I highly recommend the trip from London to see this museum. The entrance fee is very reasonable and the self guided tour takes about 1-2 hours. I recommend making a reservation in advance, it can get busy especially on the weekends. The gift shop is great, but they offer everything online so you don't have to worry about saving space in your suitcase.

There is a walking trail which takes you to several places Jane Austen walked (the whole walk is about 5 miles round trip). Also to the chapel where her mother and sisters graves are. So wear good walking shoes.

We bought tickets on the door and had to wait for 45 mins to enter, so we went to the cafe across the road for a coffee. I would recommend purchasing tickets online beforehand. Even though I've never read a Jane Austin novel as such, I found the experience very interesting. There was so much information on offer of her lifestyle and writings. The reason I put 4 stars is the property and grounds are not accessible friendly, which would make it difficult for some to be able to fully enjoy the experience. I would definitely recommend this wonderful experience to any Jane Austin fans.

Experience the house & neighborhood where Jane Austen wrote or revised her 6 major works in her last years of life. Stand next to the small round writing table she actually used, and visit her cozy bedroom. Learn about Jane's family & friends, who inspired some of her literary characters, her writing process, and costumes and customs of her times. Well curated gift and book shop.

Walk the country lanes following in Jane's steps, and visit the ancient stone St Nicholas Church where she and her sister Cassandra worshipped. This compact area is worth a visit for history & literary lovers - this is the real inspiration for Bridgerton & regency romances! Thatched roof cottages, 13th C church, Chawton manor house, rolling fields, fences, walled gardens, a lovely tea room & lively pub in a real working village.

Book your JA house admissions tickets online in advance. Tour the small house at your own pace, with knowledgeable volunteers on each floor providing intros to the collections, house & Austen family who lived here, and answering your questions. The non-profit that owns the house have recently found swatches of the historic botanical wallpapers original to the house and installed the recreated papers in many rooms, so it's delightfully decorated. Jane's well-off brother gave the house to his mother & his sisters for their use, as his own large Chawton House is nearby.

I visited on a quiet Sat in November, with only a handful of other visitors there in low season. But the house staff are gearing up for Jane's 250th birthday year, starting Dec 16, 2024, with special events running all 2025 to celebrate, analyze & read Jane Austen, a great writer, wit and woman.

A must see for any Jane Austen fan! I was surprised how many original things of Jane they had - books, ring, bracelet, shawls, her desk, her quilt she made. Really incredible and well put together. Lovely gift shop.
Wear walking shoes! You can walk here from Alton Station and can continue down the road to her brother’s house where Cassandra and her mom are buried.
Check times and buy your tickets in advance! Rooms are small so there are limited tours going through and hours change for different seasons.
