Arrive LHR 1110am;
pick up rental; drive to Bosham Jane’s Museum
(10am-5pm daily, except Monday), Chawton House (10a-430pm Wed-Sun) lunch and
tour -Budget rental guy tried the upsell. Gave us huge new
SUV. When we checked it out and said no he gave us an old run down beater.
Phil did ok with driving right off the bat (except he really likes to turn
the wheel and let it go in traffic which is mildly terrifying). -First stop was at Chawton at the pub across from
Jane’s House for unmemorable sandwiches and beers. -The roof is being repaired on the ticket office and
stables so the entry is where the workshop was last time. It’s also the shop.
The house was great. In the front room they had a sofa and a copy of P&P
with explanation that Jane read it aloud to family and friends. They found the original wallpaper for
several rooms. Great visit. Gardens were gorgeous. -We drove down to Chawton House, parked and walked
around the church and graveyard. The House was already closed. Very pretty
area and town. -Next to Bosham. Emma’s place was very nice, easy to
get in. We cleaned up and walked to the pub. Had drinks on the patio but it
was cold so got a table inside for dinner. Nice people, pretty good food. Very
comfortable bed. Nice little studio for 3 nights. |
