Lovely little house

Hill Top was Beatrix Potter's most beloved place, packed full of her favourite things and left just as she wanted it for visitors to enjoy. You will see why she loved it so much and used it and the surrounding countryside as inspiration for many of her famous children's tales. Your visit helps the National Trust continue her work to look after the Lake District.

    If you're a fan, you must go!
    This is a visit for the adult fans of BP. Her tiny home and garden are a marvel and you can see her sources of inspiration all around you. Be warned that the car park will hold a handful of vehicles, only, so do not plan to arrive until just 5-10 minutes before your ticketed admission.

    Very interesting!
    Make sure you pre book tickets , as is very busy , also the car park is extremely small , we only just managed to park , so leave extra time for parking. House is lovely very interesting , garden also enjoyable. Would not recommend for young children not really anything for them , did feel it was slightly expensive to get in but worth a visit!
