Meadowcroft lies at the heart of the Lake District in popular village of Near Sawrey, famous as home of author Beatrix Potter. Fans will be able to visit her house, Hill Top, and will see many of the buildings that featured in her books, including Meadowcroft itself. Once a shop in the village, Meadowcroft appears as the setting for Beatrix Potters Tale of Ginger and Pickles. You will find the house very different now, but you will also see many visitors passing by to inspect all of the featured properties so close at hand. Meadowcroft has undergone extensive refurbishment during 2010 making it a fine, semi detached Lake District house, set at the heart of the village. These works have been recognised by Visit England with the award of four star gold. From a small patio garden overlooking meadows, you enter into the shaker style fitted kitchen. Very well equipped you will be able to rustle up some fine meals. From the kitchen a small hall leads off to a sunny breakfast room. Off this is the utility room with laundry and drying facilities, and finally a newly fitted shower room with WC and basin.
