We stayed in 4 Sydney Place, Bath. Join us as we seek any clues to the former famous resident. What will we find?
Although, this house looks like many other houses in Bath, it has a claim to fame. A national icon lived here not long after it was built. Have you guessed who? It was Jane Austen. Her family took the lease in 1801 and lived here for 4 years.
Jane Austen is a novelist and although she was published in her lifetime, she did not make a fortune from her work. In fact, her name was not printed in her books until after her death. Her stories have endured over the past two centuries to become among the most successful romantic novels of the period with over 30 million copies sold worldwide. Pride and Prejudice accounts for 20 million of those sales (wordsrated.com).
We also enjoy a visit to the Jane Austen Centre, 40 Gay Street Bath to discover if the experience is worth it?
Later in the video we will search for some of the other houses Jane lived in and explore Syndey Gardens where she was said to find inspiration for some of her novels.

The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film our walks around Cornwall and publish on YouTube, usually weekly. Sometimes we stay in accommodation in Cornwall and upload our vlog. Sarah is fascinated by sea glass and likes to collect it so there may be the occasional sea glass video too. The channel is a hobby and we both have normal day jobs!
Unfortunately we cannot answer comments coming in more than a week after the publishing date of the video.
Frequently asked questions:
Do we do meet ups?
We regularly receive requests to meet up from viewers and subscribers, but unfortunately we do not have availability to be able to do this.
The channel is a very time consuming hobby, fitted around our employment and family commitments. Setting aside time for meet ups, means that we are not able to film and edit our weekly videos that you love to watch.
If you happen to bump into us while out and about, we will be more than happy to have a quick chat!

What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book three times. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
What is your dog’s name?
Sorry but we do not release the name of our dog, perhaps you can make up your own name for him.
