Anne Hathaway's Cottage, Grade I listed cottage in Shottery, Stratford-upon-Avon, England.

The twelve-roomed farmhouse features exposed timber framing, multiple chimneys, and a thatched roof characteristic of Tudor architectural design.

The original section of the building dates to 1463, with expansions occurring between 1610 and 1624 under the ownership of Bartholomew Hathaway.

The interior displays period furniture and artifacts that demonstrate the domestic life of Anne Hathaway before her marriage to William Shakespeare.

The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust maintains the property as a museum, offering guided tours and educational programs throughout the year.

The gardens contain plants specifically mentioned in Shakespeare's plays, following a 1920 design by horticulturist Ellen Willmott.
