Liz Wakelin is an Ambleside-based artist who has been capturing the Lake District in pen, ink and watercolour for many years.
In her first dedicated sketchbook, walker, fell-runner and insatiable tea-drinker Liz records the passing of the seasons in the landscapes she loves.
Her snapshots of Lakeland life not only celebrate the natural beauty of hill country – the lakes, woods, fells and meadows – but also the quiet back lanes, the bustling cafes and the communities that call this corner of England home.

Inspired by Lakeland Title
Inspired by Lakeland was founded by Keswick-based publisher and Countrystride broadcaster Dave Felton.
“I set up Inspired by Lakeland to make books and gifts inspired by the wild places I love.
We believe in caring for our landscapes and communities. As such we print on paper that is FSC approved, with our local Penrith printers planting trees for each book printed. The cotton in our UK-made tea towels is 100% organic. And our place-mats and coasters use up-cycled eucalyptus.
Everything we sell is designed locally, with a percentage of profits ploughed back into local business and Cumbrian-based charities.
We have won multiple awards for our books, including Lakeland Book of the Year for Amy Bateman’s Forty Farms and The Lake District in 101 Maps & Infographics, and the Holyer An Gof Children’s Book of the Year award for The Cornwall Sticker Book.
