Yew Tree Farm
The historic Yew Tree Farm is probably the most famous building in the Lake District because it was once owned by Beatrix Potter. Here Potter experimented with farming and in particular raising Herwick sheep. The biopic of Potter's life, Miss Potter, starring Renee Zellweger, was filmed on location at the farm. The Herdwick Experience introduces you to the farm's friendly flock of Herdwick sheep and explains their significance to the Cumbrian landscape.
