If you're after a Beatrix Potter adventure on your next
holiday to the
Lake District, or simply wish to indulge in some of the most
beautiful countryside the UK has to offer, then a trip to Near
& Far Sawrey certainly won't disappoint.
Just a short distance from Hawkshead
and Windermere,
you'll find the small hamlets of Near Sawrey and Far Sawrey.
Near Sawrey was made famous after Beatrix Potter fell in love with
the area, buying Hill Top Farm in 1905. Beatrix's inspiration
for Peter Rabbit and her series of short tales came from the
magnificent countryside that can be found in this beautiful spot in
the Lakes. Hill Top Farm is now run by the National Trust and is
open to the public, telling the story of this famous author's
life. Moss Eccles Tarn is just a short walk from Near Sawrey and is
a beautiful spot to head to if you want to see Mother Nature at her
finest. Moss Eccles Tarn was one of Beatrix's favourite spots,
where she would spend hours fishing.
