Pleasee keep following me on my
famous Gardners journey.
Beatrix Potter's Cumbrian life
in the beautiful Lake District.

| A view Beatrix Potter would have admired |
Beatrix Potter has become 'an icon'
and a special woman throughout history
and to the present day.
 |
| Beside Derwent Water (Lake) |
Her youth was relatively
comfortable and she travelled
and holidayed in many places.
This shows that her Father had
a good income and this enabled
the family to get away from
London and be in more pleasant
surroundings.
She strikes me as a very unusual
person from a young age. She was
always intrigued by animals, insects,
fungi and so much more.

| Peaceful still waters |
Beatrix Potter became a
real plants woman
and was able to create
almost anything.

| Village of Near Sawrey |
She was also a farmer
and nothing seemed
to phase her.
She was a real
entrepreneur and
was so ahead of her
time.
She fascinates me and
so many people still.
Being strong minded
as a woman was perhaps
quite unusual in her
day. I am sure she
inherited a lot
of this from her father.
with whom she had a good relationship.

| One of Beatrix Potter's stories was based here |
Beatrix Potter is such a legend. Her writings
are loved by so many people throughout the world.
But she has left it a better place with many
National Trust properties all over the
United Kingdom for us to enjoy and revisit.
Everyone has some link
to her with her famous
'Peter Rabbit' story and other
stories.
