Dove Cottage was the home of William Wordsworth from December 1799 to May 1808, the years of his supreme work as a poet. The cottage used to be an inn called the Dove and Olive and many of the building’s distinctive features date from this time; its white-washed walls, flagstone floors and dark, wood panelling.
