    Now, my dears, if you love the stories of Peter Rabbit, Mrs Tiggy-winkle and Jemima Puddle-duck, then run along to The Lake District to go and play in the charming World of Beatrix Potter Attraction. But don't get into mischief amongst the sights, sounds and smells of Beatrix Potter’s stories, and take great care if you find yourself in the shop! This is one of the few museums in which children keep their parents waiting, not the other way round.

    Anyone not acquainted with Beatrix Potter should watch the film Miss Potter to give themselves a quick primer on all things Peter Rabbit. Grown up children might want to venture out for a nice, long walk which takes in Hill Top, the farm Beatrix Potter bought with the royalties from her books, and the excellent National Trust Beatrix Potter Gallery in Hawkshead.
