Visited with a 1 year old and a 5 year old. They both had a magical time, the 5 year old had a quiz to complete that was reasonably set for her age group. We all loved the garden and the wee tips on how to make your garden inviting to animals and allow them to keep warm and safe over the weekend. The attraction is well laid out and allows you to step into the tales of Beatrix Potters characters, the figures and scenes are really well done. Only thing I’d say is the hill up to entrance is quite steep, if you have any issues or concerns with mobility it might be too much for you.

A small, clean, attraction but very nicely done, starting with a short introductory film. A walk through exhibit with models in displays. An interactive screen near each display for extra information about the relevant story and the truths they were based upon. Items for the youngsters to look for in the displays too. The sets all blended nicely together in a sort of woodland walk feel. Music and lighting effects and lovely photo opportunities if not too busy. A section of more in depth history about the buildings/local area and Beatrix's life is at the end, which was more interesting for adults. There is a door to the small outside garden which is small but had a lot of thought put into in and obviously would be nicer in summer than a rainy day in November. This is near the start of the walk though so you are quickly back inside. I was actually in there for about 80 minutes which I was surprised by as it was small. Nice shop and large cafe with some outside seating at the end and clean loos etc. Prices same as everywhere else. The staff were all lovely and smiley and polite in every section but particularly the young girl at the entrance Chelsea, who was smiley and enthusiastic despite the atrocious weather, She put my brolly behind the counter as it was dripping. Great welcoming customer service. I actually learned a lot .Nice way to spend a wet afternoon, concession for over 60's, £8 not too bad these days.

The venue appears small and the entrance fee was very reasonable, so we were not expecting much, however the building was like a Tardis with excellent use of space. The standard of the characters are at Disney levels. The exhibition was exemplary and a joy for all ages. I highly recommend a visit

Wonderful attraction for families young and old. Kept my boy engaged with the great attractions and (perhaps sadly) I was very engaged by the garden. A reminder of why Beatrix Potter’s works are still popular to this day, a celebration of English country life.

Let’s get the negative out of the way first-it’s expensive for something that took 1 hour to do but it may have taken longer if we’d have had children with us. Aside from the cost there isn’t really much else to moan about. It’s a beautiful, well put together experience of all things Beatrix Potter. It’s such a lovely walk through of all her characters from the series of books. We loved looking in the trees at the mice & the garden part was beautiful especially seeing the miniature statue before seeing the full size water feature. We enjoyed the part which showed parts of her real life too. My particular favourite was the Lily pond feature. We didn’t not visit the cafe on this trip so cannot comment on that.

I have visited the exhibition during a very busy bank holiday. It was like living the stories that Beatrix Potter wrote. However the best experience has been in the shop and in the caffee. I was looking for the book "The fairy caravan" but could not find it so I've asked to a blonde lady with glasses at the till if they had any copy left. The lady rang their other shop and confirmed me they had three copies left then a girl with blue hair (apologies if I don't remember your names, you all had a name tag... it's me, not you) went to the shop to get me a copy. This sounds like nothing special but considering how busy it was I believe they walked the extra mile in order to make me happy and I really appreciated that. I then decided to have the afternoon tea in the caffee and while it was mad busy, a girl called Mia explained me how the afternoon tea worked and that I had to get a table first. She has been very nice and was happy to get my order once I finally got a table. A big plus of the afternoon tea was that unlike others you could choose any hot drink so it wasn't just tea or americano. The sandwitches were all freshly made (or at least that's how they tasted like which it was another plus) and Mia served me the afternoon tea at the table, constantly smiling despite the amount of adults and kids coming in from the exhibition. Indeed I enjoyed my experience but maily I enjoyed the customer service provided, every single staff member went above their standard duties and loved what they were doing showing passion in keeping Beatrix Potter stories alive and serving guests in what I would say, was one of the best customer service ever. Well done guys, I will pay another visit next time I'm in the area.

Having visited Windermere lots of times this was the first time we visited this attraction with two children aged 4 and 8. It is a must do but I felt it was a little pricey for £30 for the four of us, they did give us £1.20 blue light NHS discount though. The attraction itself is beautiful and the displays I can imagine have taken a lot of time and effort to create. You can go round all the attractions within 40mins so it isn't a place where you can spend half a day or a full day but still something one must do. The booklets with activities for kids were a nice touch. Gift shop is gorgeous with a mixture of pocket money priced items to those more expensive.

Excellent I loved the models & cute animals. Also very interesting learning about Beatrix potter herself. I possibly enjoyed it more than my children 😂 will come back when the baby is a bit older & I can enjoy it a second time!

Just like a storybook! It's such a cute, wonderful place to explore. It's really interesting, the design/ details are fantastic. You start in a theatre showing the history of Beatrix Potter, then you get to explore the attraction. Me and my husband came alone during a coach trip, but our children would have loved it! Cost £21 for two adults. Spent about 45 minutes inside. They do have a small interactive area for the children and a camera for photos at the end. So would have spent longer if the children were with us. Bought the children beautiful mirrors from the gift shop at £2.50 each!

Such a lovely little attraction. Great for little ones but my 21 year old daughter also loved the trip down memory lane. Lovely gift shop attached with more just outside the exit.
