Wordsworth's village at the heart of the Lake District
Grasmere is a village in the Lake District National Park in Cumbria, set on the shores of Grasmere lake in the Vale of Grasmere — one of the most celebrated landscapes in England. The village is inseparably linked with William Wordsworth, who lived at Dove Cottage from 1799 to 1808 and described Grasmere as "the loveliest spot that man hath ever found." The village is also famous for its traditional gingerbread, made to a secret recipe at the tiny Sarah Nelson's Gingerbread Shop, and for the Grasmere Sports — one of the oldest traditional Lakeland sports events in the country.
