Magic in the Lake District with Beatrix Pitter.

Published on Oct, 2024

A truly magical tour which brings Beatrix Pottet to life. Tim is an excellent guide. He is incredibly knowledgeable. His showing us Potter's watercolors in her books was a stunning addition. He showed us the inspiration of each painting with the real life scene. The half day went by way too fast. I could have spent a whole day on this tour.

A private tour that makes you feel “in the know.”

Our driver and guide was so knowledgeable. He timed the whole experience perfectly with all the right stories at the right time. He spoke just enough at each stop to set the stage for what we were seeing and to be excited about it. He was responsive to questions and had a great sense of humor. I liked all the stops we took. They helped paint a perfect picture of Beatrix Potter’s life and of the Lake District.

Best tour guide ever! I learned so much I did not know about the Lake District! Visiting Hill Top was like stepping back in time-you could feel Ms. Potter’s spirit!
