Miss Potter filming at Yew Tree Farm

MISS POTTER is an enchanting love story inspired by the life of Beatrix Potter - the most successful children’s author of all time.

Set in London and the Lake District in 1902, the film stars Academy Award winner Renée Zellweger as Beatrix Potter, and charts the developments of her early career and views on the world as she opens her eyes to the true nature of her relationship with her publisher, Norman Warne (Ewan McGregor). Despite delighting generations of children with her tales, there is one that she has kept secret.... until now.

The Lake District is just as enchanting as it looks in the new Miss Potter movie, but its hotels are often disappointing. Fiona Duncan finds a selection that won't break the bank - or the magical spell of the area.
