A popular holiday destination famed for its fells and mountains, Grasmere sits just beyond Ambleside within the Lake District of Cumbria. Some look to take in the scenery on scenic walks around Grasmere Lake, the banks of the River Rothay, and the natural beauty of Rydal Cave. Others turn to the iconic fells like Helm Crag - affectionately dubbed ‘The Lion and the Lamb’ in reference to a local legend of a farmer returned to safety by the benevolent animal duo. Still more visit to take in the 14th-century architecture at St Oswald's Church, and explore the shops and restaurants in Grasmere’s town centre. The literary amongst you will know already that this is the hometown of the romantic poet William Wordsworth, and visit his former home at Dove Cottage to ponder what it is to wander lonely as a cloud.

Whatever the reason for a trip to the area, there are plenty of eateries in Grasmere to explore. Perhaps, you need a well-earned spa pitstop complete with afternoon tea to not-so-daintily stuff in your face, a classic pub lunch, or a fine dining experience to celebrate an anniversary. In any case, once you find your match go ahead and book your table today.
