Lake District & Beatrix Potter Day Tour from London

Begin your adventure at Euston Station, arriving by 8am with your outbound and return train e-tickets. The 8:30am train takes you to Oxenholme, arriving at 11:08am, where a tour guide will meet you outside the station. For extra comfort, you can upgrade to first class and enjoy refreshments and food served at your seat.

Discover the charm of Hawkshead, a medieval village filled with cobbled streets, stone houses, historic arches and 17th-century inns. Take in the surrounding Lake District scenery before enjoying a relaxing cruise across England’s largest lake, Lake Windermere, with views of mountains, villages and its 18 islands.

Continue to Tarn Hows, one of the Lake District’s most photographed locations and a favourite source of inspiration for artists and writers. Admire the peaceful landscape once associated with Beatrix Potter and, on clear days, enjoy views towards the Langdale Pikes, a popular destination for walkers.

Enjoy a traditional British cream tea at Lindeth Howe, Beatrix Potter’s former family home, set within six acres of private gardens. Then visit Hill Top Farm in Near Sawrey, purchased by Potter in 1905 using royalties from The Tale of Peter Rabbit. On selected days when Hill Top House is closed, the tour will visit the World of Beatrix Potter instead.
