From dawn to dusk. Sit back, relax, and be transported to the Lake District with a specially commissioned, immersive film that celebrates the sights and sounds of a landscape that inspired Beatrix Potter.
The Lake District is a region and national park in Cumbria, North West England known for its glacial lakes and rugged fell mountains. Beatrix Potter eventually settled here after growing up in her 'unloved birthplace' of London, becoming an award-winning sheep farmer and respected member of the local community. When Potter died aged 77 on 22 December 1943, she left 14 farms and more than 4,000 acres to the National Trust.
Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker and photographer Terry Abraham, this film captures intimate shots of the native wildlife that Potter would have sketched and later immortalised in her storybooks, alongside epic panoramic footage of its mountains and lakes, featuring locations where Potter lived, worked and admired: Catbells and Derwentwater; Newlands Valley; Watendlath; Yew Tree Farm, Coniston; Tarn Hows; Hill Top and Near Sawrey; Esthwaite Water; Ullswater and Great Langdale.
