- Everything, but the history lesson was a particular highlight for me.
- Absolutely nothing.
“Last year I visited the Jane Austin Centre and was truly amazed with what I found. This attraction is well worth anyones' time whilst in the city. To end my visit I had tea and the most delicious home made cake in the tea shop. The staff were welcoming, the service excellent and rounded the tour off to perfection.”
