Nestled in Grasmere Village, Grasmere Gather offers visitors a selection of artisan goods that celebrate Cumbria’s rich heritage. From the region’s traditional farming and food production, weaving and textile mills, mining and minerals, and tourism, each product tells a story of craftsmanship and local industry. It’s the perfect place to browse, discover the producers we showcase, and to take home a reminder of your visit to the Lake District.

At the Grasmere Gather you’ll find hand-woven tweed, crafted on the loom or in one of our oldest British mills; hand-thrown pottery and ceramics; award-winning photography; design-led giftware by talented local artists; unique leather, wood and paper creations; and mouth-watering Cumbrian produce. All represent the highest quality the UK has to offer.

We select our suppliers very carefully, prioritising authentic Cumbrian provenance, quality, and sustainability. We are also home to the Gather Kitchen and a hub for our Gather Leaders, a group of outdoor professionals who embody the spirit of adventure, something many of the original tourists to the Lake District sought and is still sought by our visitors today.
