Image for Mirehouse

Mirehouse is a living house full of history. Wordsworth, Southey, Coleridge and Tennyson were friends of the family and the poetic connection continues. There is live music and a relaxed welcome. The varied gardens give access to the park and Bassenthwaite Lake, home of the ospreys. This 'Best Heritage Property for Families' has woodland playgrounds and free nature notes.

Located on the A591, 3 miles north of Keswick.
