Rydal Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rydal Hall is an early 19th century Grade II listed historic house on the outskirts of the village of Rydal, Cumbria in the Lake District, England. It is opposite Rydal Mount, home of the poet William Wordsworth. It used to be owned by the Le Fleming family.
The house is now used for retreats, conferences, courses and holidays in a beautiful situation near Rydal Water, north of Lake Windermere. Close by are Grasmere to the north and Ambleside to the south-east. There are also formal gardens with a fountain and balustrades open to the public (for a donation) and a rambler's tea shop open every day except Christmas. It is on the route of the "Coffin Path" between Dove Cottage (also a home of Wordsworth before he moved to Rydal) and Rydal Mount, with good views [1].
