Leslie Linder writes, "Beatrix Potter frequently visited her uncle and aunt at Gwaynynog, a fine old house in Denbigh, North Wales. She was staying wit then in March 1909 when working on the illustrations for The Tale of Flopsy Bunnies, so it was natural that she should choose their garden as the setting for the story."
