Relaxing Walk in a Beautiful Lake District Village | GRASMERE, ENGLAND.

Join me on this Halloween walk around the historic and picturesque village of Grasmere in the English Lake District, a place described by William Wordsworth as 'the loveliest spot that man hath ever found.' In this video we visit his grave at St Oswald's Church and his old home Dove Cottage.

Wordsworth in particular has held a place in my heart since I was a teenager so it was a real pleasure filming this beautiful village that he once called home. It's nice to walk in his footsteps and visit the place where he was laid to rest. Grasmere is nestled in the English countryside surrounded by the Cumbrian mountains and crosses over the River Rothay which flows into the beautiful Grasmere lake about 500 metres to the south. The village is overlooked from the north-west by the rocky hill of Helm Crag, popularly known as The Lion and the Lamb or the Old Lady at the organ. These names derive from the shape of rock formations on its summit, depending on the side from which it is viewed. The Lake District villages are the heart of this stunning region, offering a blend of timeless charm, rich history, and breathtaking landscapes. Nestled among rolling hills, serene lakes, and rugged fells, these picturesque villages provide a peaceful retreat and a glimpse into the traditional way of life in rural England. One possible meaning for the name Grasmere is "the lake (mere) flanked by grass." Although early spellings with "Grys-" or "Gris(s)-" might suggest Old Norse "griss", meaning "young pig" as the first element, evidence points to the Old English/Old Norse "gres", meaning grass, with the modern form influenced by Standard English. St Oswald's Church is dedicated to the 7th-century saint Oswald of Northumbria, King of Northumbria. It is said to have been built on a site where Oswald preached. The present building dates from the 14th century and was doubled in size by the addition of a parallel nave to the north of the original nave between 1490 and 1500. The roof was rebuilt in about 1562, which involved adding a second tier of arches to the arcade. William Wordsworth lived in Grasmere from 1799 and was buried in the churchyard of St Oswald's. Inside the church, the monuments include one to Wordsworth by Thomas Woolner, with an epitaph by John Keble. In the southeast corner of the churchyard is a group of twelve graves surrounded by railings. These are the graves of members of the Wordsworth and Quillinan families, and are listed at Grade II. William Wordsworth (1770–1850) lived in Dove Cottage with his sister Dorothy Wordsworth (1771–1855), in the hamlet of Townend, outside Grasmere, from 1799. He breakfasted with Sir Walter Scott at The Swan, an inn on today's A591, whose sign quotes his line, "Who does not know the famous Swan?" In 1808 he moved to Allan Bank then to Rydal Mount.
