Dove Cottage è una casa ai confini di Grasmere nel Lake District inglese. È molto nota perché fu la casa dove il poeta William Wordsworth e sua sorella Dorothy trascorsero nove anni di "vita semplice, ma colma di importanti riflessioni". Durante questo periodo, Wordsworth scrisse molte delle poesie per le quali è ricordato tutt'oggi, tra cui Ode: Intimations of Immortality, Ode to Duty, My Heart Leaps Up e I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud, insieme a parti del suo poema autobiografico, The Prelude. Il poeta si sposò nel 1802 e sua moglie Mary venne a vivere con la cognata al Dove Cottage. La famiglia si espanse in fretta, con l'arrivo di tre bambini in quattro anni, e i Wordsworth lasciarono il Dove Cottage nel 1808 per trasferirsi in una casa più ampia. Il cottage divenne quindi l'abitazione di Thomas de Quincey per un certo numero di anni, prima di essere occupato da altri inquilini.
