  • Description

    Dove Cottage, on the edge of Grasmere in the Lake District of England, was the home of poet William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy Wordsworth from 1799 to 1808. The house is a typical stone-constructed home with limewashed walls and a slate roof. It includes eight rooms, four upstairs and four below. "Opium Eater" Thomas de Quincey, a friend of the Wordsworths, resided in the cottage in 1809.
