Anne Hathaway Cottage

The Anne Hathaway Cottage is a replica of the childhood home of Shakespeare's wife, Anne. The original "Hathaway Cottage", still standing in the little village of Shottery, England, was presented to Anne by her brother as a gift following her marriage to William Shakespeare. Our Anne Hathaway Cottage, which opened in 1988, is used for receptions, weddings, board meetings and teas. It also houses a small Shakespearean Library and several works of Shakespearean art.
