Buckle Yeat is situated in the village of Near Sawrey.
The name Buckle Yeat is over 300 years old and it means fasten the gate.In years gone by the gate referred to would be the gate to the village.
Near Sawrey was once home to the children's writer Beatrix Potter about whom the movie Miss Potter is all about. Hill Top Farm where she wrote many of her stories is a museum and is open to the public.

Hot and humid this morning in Sawrey. We have had emails from Japan, Italy and New Zealand today all looking for accommodation at Buckle Yeat.
As I write this there is a small helicopter circling the village presumably taking pictures of Hill Top
