This area of the world is a great place to live for Austen fans - with the city of Bath nearby as well as famous film locations from her works within reach. You might have read all her novels or watched some of the recent adaptations. You might have strong opinions on which of them is best - and plenty to say about the characters too. Or maybe you like the Regency era itself - that since the cravet and the bonnet fashion has gone downhill. If only it was possible to promenade or attend an as …
