A
short drive from the Kirkstone Pass Inn, ‘down the Struggle’, through
Ambleside
Village
, you come to the
village
of
Grasmere
. The graves outside the Church include many of the Wordsworth
Family, together with William and his wife Mary.
Just outside the Churchyard
is the
Wordsworth
Daffodil
Garden
.
Wordsworth’s Grave
What used to be that Parish Church School is now a world famous
Gingerbread shop,
The aroma hits you before you’ve even walked through the door - well
worth the visit.
Just on the edge of the village is a modern style building,
but with a traditional stone facade which is the Grasmere and
Wordsworth Museum,
nearby is Dove Cottage and the gift shop, where you can purchase
tickets for the Museum
and Dove Cottage Wordsworth's famous home.
