Tailor of Gloucester Beatrix Potter Museum is a charming shop and museum is open to the public every day where you will be served by our enthusiastic and knowledgeable volunteers. The house, pictured left is the original building used by Beatrix Potter in her wonderful story
Beatrix Potter's artfully written and beautifully illustrated stories have been nursery favourites for more than 100 years. Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny and Mrs Tiggy-winkle still come alive for countless children - and their parents, who remember the tales of the small animals from their own childhood.
Yet these stories, which continue to charm and delight, came from the pen of a woman who had no children of her own and whose childhood was not as happy as it might have been.
Their author became a passionate countrywoman and skilled farmer, although she was born to a wealthy upper middle-class family in London, a world away from the northern countryside where her characters were brought vividly to life by the genius of her words and pictures.
