Beatrix Potter Hill Top House Postcard A6

Where Peter Rabbit Was Born

Tucked away in the quiet hamlet of Near Sawrey on the western shore of Esthwaite Water, Hill Top is one of the most visited and beloved houses in the entire Lake District. This charming 17th-century farmhouse was purchased by Beatrix Potter in 1905 with the proceeds from her first books, and it was here, in the rooms and garden of Hill Top, that she found the inspiration for many of her most famous tales. The house, the garden, the surrounding fields and lanes — all appear in the pages of Peter Rabbit, Tom Kitten, Jemima Puddle-Duck, and many more.

This beautifully produced postcard captures the timeless charm of Hill Top — a place of pilgrimage for Beatrix Potter fans from around the world, and one of the most evocative literary landmarks in England.
