Beatrix Potter's Lakeland and Wordsworth Tour 

  • Beatrix Potter's Hilltop Farm - home of Peter Rabbit
  • Jeremy Fisher's Esthwaite Water
  • Jemimah Puddleduck's village of Near Sawrey
  • Squirrel Nutkin's Derwentwater
  • Stunningly beautiful Tarn Hows and Monk Coniston Estate
  • Yewdale, Yew Tree farm, Loughrigg Tarn and Grasmere all featured in the "Miss Potter" movie starring Renee Zellweger
  • Coniston Water - lake cruise
  • Hawkshead Village
  • Ullswater - "Queen of the English Lakes"
  • Castlerigg Stone Circle - the enigmatic ancient stone circle
  • Grasmere - stopover in village for lunch

A visit to Hilltop farm is a highlight of this tour but lovers of Beatrix Potter know that her world extended throughout the Lake District, from Sawrey, Hawkshead, Yewdale and Tarn Hows in South Lakeland to Newlands and Derwentwater in the north and to the head of the Troutbeck Valley in the east. This most comprehensive Lake District tour not only visits places associated with Beatrix Potter, her delightful characters, her farms and locations featured in the “Miss Potter” movie but also includes a lake cruise on Coniston Water and some of the most beautiful lakes and spectacular mountain scenery the area has to offer. With frequent stops throughout the day for photographs and short walks, this tour is the ideal way to enjoy the landscape that Beatrix Potter so loved and sought to preserve.
