The Swan dates back to 1377 and retains many of its original features. The intimate restaurant serves traditional dishes and has an extensive wine list.
Our guests include many people of sense and sensibility - that is to say, devotees of Jane Austen, who make their pilgrimage to her cottage in the Chawton area of Alton during their stay with us. The cottage now is a popular tourist attraction and museum dedicated to Jane's life and work. Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice were written here.
But you don't have to be a fan of Jane Austen to enjoy the pretty village of Chawton or the attractions of the Swan Hotel. The hotel, dating back to 1554, has an intimate restaurant serving a varied menu of well cooked dishes. It also has a reasonably priced wine list. The bar and lounge are rich in character, with open fireplaces, and filling bar meals and real ales. | Swan Hotel
