The Beatrix Potter scenic Lake District tour is ideal for those who wish to combine a leisurely half day scenic tour through the south lakes with some of the most popular attractions. The tour focuses on the life of Beatrix Potter and her importance to the Lake District not only as a children's storyteller but also as a farmer and conservationist. Some of the scenic sights include the beauty spot of Tarn Hows and the lake of Coniston Water. You will visit the former home of Beatrix Potter at Hill Top with its beautiful garden and original furnishings.

In Hawkshead village you will have time to visit the Beatrix Potter Gallery and view some of her original drawings held in the former office of her husband William Heelis. The tour finishes with a steam train journey from Haverthwaite to Lakeside that then connects with the Windermere Steamers for a cruise on the largest lake in England.Entry fees to Hill Top, steam train and cruise fares are not included and payable locally to your guide in cash only £25 per adult
