A Walk up Roseberry

Roseberry Topping

We headed up to the summit of Roseberry Topping on a clear day, and the views across the surrounding Cleveland landscape stretched for miles, with the patchwork of fields and countryside below.

A Stop at Rydal Water

Rydal Water wasn't somewhere I'd visited before. We came across it while travelling towards Grasmere. After stopping for a look, we crossed the bridge and were greeted by beautiful views across the lake. We decided to follow the path alongside the water, which eventually took us to Rydal Cave.

The scenery was lovely, with the hills and trees around the lake and reflections across the water.

A Visit to Hill Top

During our trip to the Lake District, we visited Hill Top, the former home of Beatrix Potter.

The house is surrounded by beautiful countryside and gardens, and it was easy to see how the setting could have inspired some of her stories. Inside the house, many of Beatrix Potter's belongings remain. I also spotted copies of some of her original illustrations.
