Overton’s  Summer of Walking, Culture, Music & Family Fun 

Step into the world of Jane Austen in beautiful Overton 🌿

Discover the charm of this historic Hampshire village with two delightful self-guided Jane Austen walks:

✨ The 2 mile village walk – a gentle stroll through picturesque streets, historic buildings and countryside views, perfect for families and relaxed explorers.

✨ The 9 mile countryside walk – a more adventurous route through the rolling landscapes that inspired Austen’s world of country estates and rural life.

Breathe in fresh country air, pause at welcoming cafés, and immerse yourself in the scenery that shaped some of England’s most beloved stories.

Make a weekend of it!

🎶 12–14 June – Experience the vibrant Overton Music Festival, bringing live music, community spirit and summer celebration to the heart of the village.

🌾 18–19 July – Enjoy the wonderfully creative Overton Scarecrow Festival Grand Fete, when the streets are transformed with imaginative scarecrows popping up around every corner, Scarecrows will be put up two weeks before  the festival.  

Whether you come for literature, live music, the fabulous North Hampshire countryside and walking trails, or good old family fun, Overton offers a perfect countryside escape filled with heritage, creativity and community warmth…. Lace up your walking shoes… and let Overton surprise you.
