The inspiration for our name is the doughty Herdwick sheep, a breed unique to England’s Lake District and symbolic of the rugged beauty and charm of this special landscape.

Herdwick Landscapes is run by Kate and Peter Kelsall.  Peter has been familiar with the Lake District since childhood. When he married Kate in 1993, this was where he took her to spend their honeymoon. In 2002 they were lucky enough to be able to buy a holiday home on a quiet farm not far from Bowness.  Since then they have spent much of their free time there. This has enabled Peter to pursue his hobby of landscape photography in the most ideal of settings.

Kate has always been interested in dolls’ houses and for many years has restored her own houses as well as making furniture and fittings for them. She is also interested in the architecture of English houses, especially the vernacular architecture of Cumbria and the Borders.

In 2007 the opportunity arose for them to turn their hobbies into a joint business that makes distinctive dolls’ houses and sells fine landscape photographs.
