Cumbria's valleys and fells (as the low mountains are known) are home to idyllic villages, high moorlands and picturesque lakes. Literary buffs will enjoy Wordsworth's Dove Cottage (go in March to see daffodils), and if you've got kids in tow, visit The World of Beatrix Potter. Or just enjoy a leisurely drive through beautiful scenery.

The simple tombstone of William Wadsworth and his wife Mary is located in the churchyard, making this church one of the most visited literary shrines in the world.
Lovely wee church with plenty of interesting information and a good stock of items for sale such as local postcards, books etc. The organist was playing when we went in, a real treat!

This was our second visit to the site, the member of staff was fantastic, was so enthusiastic and nothing was to much trouble, she was full of information and very passionate about the abbey, its history & surrounding area, this was worth our visit alone. It was very peaceful even with the restoration work that is taking place, we look forward to visiting again
