Itinerario
Beatrix Potter se quedó aquí en el verano de 1889 y 1895. Cazó fósiles y hongos en el bosque donde solía pintar acuarelas.
Uno de los valles favoritos de Beatrix Potter. Pasamos la granja del parque Troutbeck. Comprado en 1923 y donde se convirtió en experta en la cría de ovejas Herdwick.
Nos detenemos brevemente en Waterhead en Ambleside, ubicado en la cabecera del lago Windermere.
Beatrix tenía 16 años cuando sus padres alquilaron Wray Castle. La familia se quedó allí en 1882. Una de sus habitaciones favoritas era la biblioteca.
Hawkshead es un antiguo municipio que ha florecido desde los tiempos nórdicos, con muchos edificios que datan del siglo XVII. Mientras aquí visitamos la galería Beatrix Potter. El edificio del siglo XVII, que era la oficina de su esposo, ha permanecido inalterado desde su día. Una selección significativa de los dibujos e ilustraciones originales de Beatrix Potter se exhiben en la galería.
Comprada en 1905, Beatrix Potter usó el dinero que ganó de sus primeros libros para comprar esta pequeña casa de piedra del siglo XVII. Samuel Whiskers, Jemima Puddleduck y Tom Kitten fueron creados aquí.
La señorita Potter compró el patrimonio Monk Coniston, que incluía a Tarn Hows, por £ 15,000, en 1929. Luego vendió la mitad del patrimonio al National Trust y dejó la otra mitad al fideicomiso en su testamento.
El agua de Coniston es uno de los lagos ingleses más imponentes y hermosos. El lago está dominado por el "Viejo hombre de Coniston" que se eleva a 803 metros.
Pasando por el pueblo de Coniston llegamos a la granja de árboles de tejo. Propiedad del fideicomiso nacional. Beatrix compró la granja en 1930 y evitó que se convirtiera en una plantación forestal. Este impresionante e histórico edificio catalogado de grado dos es una de las granjas más famosas del Distrito de los Lagos.

My husband and I came to the Lake District for the first time on holiday and had the most incredible private tour with David. We had the best time seeing and learning all about the area and history of Beatrix Potter. He was so kind, super knowledgeable, accommodating, and professional! He showed up early to our accommodations, and helped create a very memorable day for us! We would highly recommend David, and are already looking forward to booking him again for our next trip back!
Thank you so much for your wonderful 5 star review. Absolutely delighted to hear that you had the best time seeing and learning about this beautiful part of the UK. We hope to welcome you back to the Lake District one day for another adventure!
David was knowledgeable and friendly, and he put me at ease from the moment I entered his spacious, clean and comfortable car. There were a number of different options available for doing the Beatrix Potter tour, Dave offers a private tour. There was no minimum number requirement for booking. Ok; it may have cost me more - but, I got to see what I was interested in. He stopped if I requested a photo stop. I didn’t have to hang about waiting for my fellow travellers to idle back to the car. At the various locations we visited; he pointed out things of interest; he also had a collection of photos that he could show comparisons from previous times (I found this most interesting and helpful). It added another dimension to the tour. David had an easy manner and I felt really relaxed in his company. I would 100% recommend David. He’s been taking ppl around this area for over 20 years. He puts life into what came before. The scenery is spectacular. Well worth investing your time and ££ on his tour. Thanks David. It was a fantastic day.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Taking a private tour gives you a lot of flexibility and we are able to customise the tour to maximise the experience for you. So glad you enjoyed the spectacular scenery and we really appreciate your 100% recommendation.
My adult daughter and I had the most outstanding time on our five-hour Beatrix Potter tour. David is an excellent and personable guide-- the experience felt more like a friend showing you their favorite sights than it did a booked tour. We were delighted with everything--to see in person what we'd only imagined was better than we'd even expected. Because of our personal interests, David added details on other celebrated figures, such as the Wordsworths and Charlotte Mason. Private tours allow for that sort of thing, which make them all the more enjoyable. Our private Beatrix Potter tour with David was the highlight of our visit to the Lakes!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback by posting this lovely review. We are so happy to hear it was the highlight of your visit to the Lake District. We always endeavour to make our tours personal and we are happy it seems we have done that.
