About

Grasmere is a small lake made famous by Wordsworth and his Romantic contemporaries in the 19th century. Grasmere's stunning location has inspired generations of poets and painters alike. For the fell walker and mountaineer Grasmere is the perfect base for an ascent of the nearby Helvellyn range, Fairfield and Dollywagon Pike.
The nearby village of the same name is the epitome of a traditional Lakeland setting, with a number of tearooms, pubs and shops selling local fare, with an unparalleled backdrop.
