    • I’ve visited twice and I think it’s fair to say the Grasmere Gather is the best shop in the Lake District. There were so many things I wanted to buy from locally made Herdwick tweeds caps and bags, to beautiful hand crafted pottery, to high end toiletries, pictures, prints, cards, chocolates and locally produced gin.
