    A really interesting place to visit. The portraits and pictures on the walls clearly show how the family was influenced by the 'Whigs' and the Protestant Settlement of 1688. I found the story about the Dr who lived there and mistreated his wife shocking.

    A small National Trust property in the centre of Cockermouth. We parked in the pay and display carpark on the opposite side of the river (2.80 for 2 hours), and crossed the bridge to get to Wordsworth House which was about a 2-3 minute walk from the carpark. Although the property is small, it is full of interesting things and history of William Wordsworth's childhood. Some rooms have a 'no touch' policy, but in others you are encouraged to explore the items on display - the free map provided, and the helpful staff and volunteers, make it clear which rooms have which policy. During our visit there were several rooms set up with dressing clothes for children and adults, a room with a quill pen and ink to try writing with, and some wool and beads to decorate cardboard Easter eggs. In the garden there were skittles, hoopla, and lots of painted pebbles to make your own (very daft) poems! The garden was well stocked with beautiful and unusual plants, and had beautiful views over the river. There was an exhibition in the house with memories from people who'd lived in the house in more recent times before it came to the National Trust. I'd definitely visit again!
