Other Potter's magical world

There is a beautiful village in the Lake District that feels as if you're stepping back in time with its cobbled streets, whitewashed cottages, and absence of cars.

Hawkshead, nestled in the heart of the National Park, offers a picturesque glimpse into a bygone era. Beatrix Potter was the village's most famous child and one of its biggest supporters.

The Tale of Peter Rabbit author bought up large stretches of land around Hawkshead, and worked with the National Trust to keep the idyllic landscape as untouched as possible.
