The Real Lake District

We were delighted when one of our star members Wordsworth Grasmere took Rydal Mount and Gardens under their wing, and now here's the inside story of the house where William Wordsworth lived https://gritstonecoop.co.uk/product/rydal-mount-the-story-of-wordsworths-home/

We’re currently looking for local stall holders to be part of Festival of the Lake at Windermere Jetty Museum this June.

Festival of the Lake is a celebration of Windermere, its rich heritage, traditional boating culture and the many ways people continue to connect with England’s largest lake. Alongside the festival programme, we’d love to welcome a thoughtful mix of local makers, producers and small businesses with a connection to Windermere and the Lake District.

We’d particularly love to hear from:
🍴 Local food and drink producers
🎨 Artists and craftspeople
🛍️ Independent makers and lifestyle brands
👕 Clothing, gifts and handmade goods

📆 Saturday 27 June 2026
📍 Windermere Jetty Museum
🎪 Stall cost: £40 + VAT

If you’d like to get involved, please get in touch via [email protected].
