Jane Austen in Bath – 60 minutes

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a Georgian townhouse in Bath must have a Jane Austen story to tell! Our Jane Austen tour looks at life in Britain in the 1790s – 1820, (the Regency into Late Georgian period), including when Austen was writing, and for a time living in Bath. Using the rooms of the house as inspiration, passages and conversations from Austen’s novels bring to life the activities that took place in such domestic spaces, as well as questioning the thoughts and feelings of the people who inhabited them.
