Hill Top, Near Sawrey
Hill Top, Near Sawrey in the Lake District, Cumbria.
Beatrix Potter bought Hill Top Farm in 1905 and travelled here for holidays from her London home. Hill Top features in several books including ‘The Tale of Samuel Whiskers’. With the help of a farm manager, Beatrix started to breed herdwick sheep. In 1913, at the age of 47 Beatrix married William Heelis and moved to nearby Castle Cottage.
