Rydal Mount and Gardens

Really worth a visit, especially because of the interesting young lady in the ticket office/gift shop who educated us on the family history. Lots of inspiring things to learn about the Wordsworths. Parking is a little tight but I believe there is a nearby car park if needed.

One of a number of Wordsworth sites to visit. Well worth taking the time to wander through the house and then go and relax in the garden s. It's full of interest and considering the other Wordsworth sites nearby it helps build a picture of the life they had in the area. Well worth a visit. Gift shop has a range of quality items and the reception was great, really helpful.

A beautifully kept house and tended to garden. Lots of interesting artifacts and a very informative snapshot into Wordsworth's family life. Such a shame we were the only visitors for the majority of the time we were there! The ladies in the tea room were lovely and the soup and cakes were fantastic. Definitely worth a visit, the gardens (in Autumn) were a highlight and I can imagine they're beautiful in all seasons.

Beautiful spot to see Wordsworths home. It's wonderful to walk in his footsteps and the gardens are a delight. Well worth a visit. There are toilets here but no cafe at the moment

Wonderful place in a beautiful setting. You can almost sense Wordsworth's presence. It is a calm space and it is easy to see how the great man drew his inspiration. Walking where he walked is most humbling.

Well kept beautiful gardens to walk through befote walking down to the Falls and its little viewing hut.

A vibrant museum with large garden. Of course a must visit for WW fans, but also to enjoy the garden and atmosphere. Excellent tour. A nice walking path to Grasmere starts just above the place, better that walking in a busy street. NOTE: many images in Maps are not from the Mount. They are from the Rydal Hall, which is just some 100m/yds away, but it is a different place.

Beautiful and historic place to visit, 3 hours from glasgow, scenic drive.
