WhiteMoss and Veronica, Thank you respectively for the article and the appreciation of a charmingly pro-animal, pro-environment film and protagonist!

I love that film.

Lissie,
I like to visit in October when the stunning Autumn colours are like flame on the landscape.
Anytime is beautiful though. I go to "recharge my batteries" every year before winter.

The Beatrix Potter house is a delight. She was so unspoilt , Take a look at picture of Peter Rabbit's garden in the books and Hilltop veg garden is just like that.
I was tearful when we were leaving.
WhiteMoss, "Daffodils" is a poem that I recite every spring when first the yellow beauties emerge near my front, shade garden. Have you seen the film "Miss Potter"? It's a charming combination of information about her delightful children's stories and her environmental interests. Hill Top grounds and house epitomize what I'd have as a dream home and property.
I'd love to visit the Lake District, and the Beatrix Potter home in particular.
Thanks for your thought. You must visit if you can...
Never been there too but it a very beautiful location with such a rich cultural history.
Thanks- hope you make it someday.
I've been wanting to go to the Lake District for eons and have never yet quite managed to get there, thanks for this great information!
