If you go to Grasmere and visit Dove Cottage this is where he lived for several years and it’s now a museum showing his life there. There are many items of interest and he wrote poetry there.
He went to school in Hawkshead and wrote about it in his poem Prelude.
Ullswater area inspired the famous Daffodils poem.
Most of his life he lived at Rydal Mount which is in Rydal, between Ambleside and Grasmere. The house and extensive garden are open to visitors.
