Wordsworth House in Cockermouth is a Georgian townhouse where William Wordsworth, England’s great nature poet, first discovered his twin loves of literature and the landscape. His childhood home features a walled, riverside garden presented as it may have been when William and his sister Dorothy played games along the flower beds. Winter blooms of snowdrops and crocuses prevail this time of year. You may still see them when the season opens in March. Take a guided tour of the house or explore at your own pace. Located on Main Street, the closest rail station is Maryport.
