There is also a coal house and secure bike storage to the rear. Head up the traditional winding cottage staircase to find the two comfortable bedrooms, one double and one twin. The shower room is also located to the first floor. Grasmere is world-renowned for the inspiring surrounding that moved William Wordsworth to write some of his best-loved poetry. This charming village is home to a variety of cafes, bars and eateries as well as the famous Sarah Nelson’s Grasmere Gingerbread shop. There’s a host of walks directly from the village including Fairfield, Silver How, Helm Crag and Loughrigg. Further afield you can reach the market town of Keswick which lies on the showers of Derwentwater.
Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found".

Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District.
