In a tiny village called Chawton in Hampshire Jane Austen penned the novels that are now famous for their sharp irony and complex exploration of human interaction. The seventeenth century house and museum houses the very table Austen used to write her novels on and some first editions of her works are kept on the bookcase in the museum. There is an Old Bakehouse adjacent to the house that holds a donkey carriage that Austen used and, if you are seeking refreshment, there is a tea shop just across the road.
