If like us you're excited to follow in the wake of John, Susan, Titty, Roger, Nancy & Peggy, why not have an adventure of your own around Low and High Peel Near. Take a picnic and paddle in the shallows where the Swallows & Amazons took to the water and where 'Secret Harbour' was recreated for the film.
