Probably the most important reason why many overseas visitors come to Bowness. The attraction brings to life the wonderful creatures brought to life by Beatrix Potter.

Carefull sightseeing! Basically a big hole in the ground! The entire area is interesting. If you walk back towards Little Langdale and turn right at Slater's Bridge you will find a fantastic cave.

Apparently the highest zipline in UK, but can't confirm. I'm told you can see Scotland from the top! I can recommend the drive: A591 to the junction with the A66 then B5292
