Hello, I'm Esther
I lived in England for several years and fell for its countryside as much as for Jane Austen's novels. Since moving back to Spain, I return every year.
I know the lanes, the tea rooms and the villages the guidebooks leave out. Austen Travel was born to share them with anyone who feels what I feel when opening Pride and Prejudice.
English verdure, English culture, English comfort, seen under a sun bright, without being oppressive.
Dear Esther,
Tell us what you'd love to experience and we'll send you a tailor-made proposal, with no obligation.
