More about this scene

This is the land of Swallows and Amazons, for near the foot of Coniston Water lies High Nibthwaite, where the author, Arthur Ransome spent his childhood holidays and developed a passion for the area that was to last throughout his life. Beyond the promontories of Park Nab and High Peel Near is Peel Island, renamed 'Wild Cat Island' in his famous tales.
