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 Wet and thundery Sawrey, the thunder started at about 5.30am today and continued for about three hours! It sounded like a bomb going off! The poor Lambs!!! But in the true spirit of Bank Holiday Weather, I guess its bang on!!!





Popped to Ambleside for the bread early this morning and just had to sample the new chocolate croissants! YUM YUM! The bread and bath bus sold out in record time this morning despite ordering extra for the bank holiday.



Above is one of the prints that we have started selling online, for those of who who know and love the village I am sure you know where it was painted and how true a representation of Near Sawrey it is..

The sunday papers are all full of political news following the local elections this past week. I do not think there is any more news fromSawrey this morning......weather update.............the sun has just popped out!!!!!!!! Hoooorah!!!
