Hello from Sawrey (Miss Potter village)

Far Sawrey lies in rolling farmland and wooded hillsides above Lake Windermere. It is the area where the "Miss Potter" film is based upon. This is a blog from the village shop, which is not dis-similar to the Beatrix Potter Ginger and Pickles Shop here in the heart of the village where Beatrix Potter lived and wrote her world famous stories including "The Tale of Peter Rabbit"

Good Morning from Sawrey Stores.... Its a lovely May morning here in the village... The ram raiders are back with avengence this morning, they have stolen an apple, some red grapes and the plums.... I have dangled some CD's to try and deter them but they keep coming back!

The new bread from Munx lakeland bakery has gone down a treat! The chocolate and hazelnut danish pastries look divine and have all sold out very quickly... The crusty french sticks look lush and are proving very popular, we are not sure how to display them as yet tho

The doctor has advised that I do more walking to reduce the anxiety I am feeling regarding my case, so I set off last night and had a great walk around both near and far sawrey, it was really lush, I enjoyed seeing all of the baby lambs tucked away in the fields... A lush way to spend an hour...

More double yokers eggs have been reported in the free range eggs that we are selling, it all happens in Sawrey hey!

We have started selling raffle tickets for the up and coming may day festivities, they are 20p each or a book for £1, there are some great prizes including a cookery demo at Lucy Cooks in Staveley, a family ticket for Lake Cruises, afternoon tea for 2 at the Lakeside Hotel plus many other fab prizes, included a voucher to spend on ice creams here at the shop

Thats about all for now, off to order some cumberland sausage :-)
