Home of Beatrice Potter: Hilltop House
Details
Set in the peaceful village of Near Sawrey, a 30 minute drive from Lymestone, Hill Top House was once the cherished home of Beatrix Potter. Now cared for by the National Trust, this seventeenth century farmhouse remains much as she left it, filled with her personal treasures, sketches and pieces that inspired her famous tales. The pretty cottage garden and surrounding countryside offer the same charm and tranquillity that shaped her stories. A visit to Hill Top provides a wonderful connection to Potter’s life and a chance to step into the world that brought her characters to life. This is a very popular attraction and advance booking is recommended to ensure entry.
