Dress Up Day is one of our favourite days of the year. Get a head-start on the festivities by joining this special guided tour of Jane Austen’s House, in full Regency dress!

As part of a small group, you will enjoy an early morning tour of the House before it is open to the public. Before we begin, we’ll make sure everyone is correctly attired – either come in your own Regency dress or borrow what you need from our dressing up box.

Once we are happy with our appearance we’ll explore the House, walking in Jane Austen’s footsteps through rooms that she knew and loved. In each room, you’ll discover precious objects from Jane Austen’s life, from her father’s Mahogany bookcase to her sister Cassandra’s hand-stitched sampler, Jane’s turquoise ring and the topaz crosses belonging to Jane and Cassandra, to first editions of her novels and her own hand-written music books.

With plenty of opportunities to chat and ask questions along the way, this unique tour will transport you back in time to get a sense of Regency life and to experience the House in a new way.
