"The cottage is charming. As we were attending Dress Up Day across the road at Jane Austen's House the location was perfect. The little Jane Austen/ Georgian details were delightful."

About this house rental

Renovated in June 2019, the house is a real haven ideally located in the heart of Chawton village and surrounding Hampshire. Farthings was built circa 1700 for the workers of the Squires big house, which is now the Jane Austen Library in the centre of Chawton. The writer's home, now a museum, is directly opposite the house and it's said that Austen family members stayed in Farthings when they ran out of room. They certainly smoked hams for Squire Knight's guests in the inglenook fireplace.

The host ,though we did not meet her, was attentive and helpful by mail and phone.The cottage is beautifully decorated and right in the middle of Chawton..There was one problem but apologies and refund were forthcoming.

The cottage is charming. As we were attending Dress Up Day across the road at Jane Austen's House the location was perfect. The little Jane Austen/ Georgian details were delightful.

We enjoyed out stay in this very quaint old cottage with a lovely garden. It was extremely clean and cosy and felt very homely compared to other impersonal places we have stayed in. It was directly opposite Jane Austen's house and the village was very quiet and picturesque. Louise phoned to check that everything was Ok and we felt that she was the perfect host.
