Reviews
"Love this place, couldn't have asked for a better experience of the lakes will be going back again for sure. Owners were so nice and friendly made it even more worth the stay, pool table for the kids was awesome too."
"Such a fantastic place to stay we had a fantastic time as a family! The house was so well equipped with everything we could have needed! We enjoyed a fantastic week and shall be returning again!! "
"Enjoyed a lovely girlie weekend at White Gables. House very well appointed and spacious. We enjoyed the chimnea (chopped wood provided) and sat out until 10.30 one evening with a glass or two! Pub a the end of the lane too. Cheryl and Colin were great hosts and provided useful info on the local area. Handy for Keswick and the coast (half hour drive to Allonby). Fab weekend. Would recommend this property for larger groups"
"This house was brilliant. Suitable for larger groups and good for those with restricted mobility. The pictures don't do it justice, and Cheryl and Colin were very welcoming. Thanks for a great holiday :)"
"Spent a fantastic week in this lovely house, beautifully converted to accommodate 12 people in great comfort. Owners very friendly and helpful. Ideal for large parties of all ages with great lounge, dining and kitchen space. Very close to Northern lakes and coast."
"An excellent property well appointed with plenty of space for a large group [ we were a mixed age group of 12]. The plentiful supply of toilets and showers make bedtime and mornings so much easier. The owners who stay in the neighbouring cottage could not have been more helpful."
"Just back from a week staying in this cottage. There were 10 of us in total (5 adults, 5 kids) and the cottage accommodated us perfectly. A home from home that offers everything you could ask for. The owners could not be more friendly! The setting is so peaceful & idyllic. The cottage & garden are beautiful and spacious! The games room was a huge hit with the kids (and adults looking for a bit of peace)! It also offers an ideal base for exploring the surrounding towns - Workington, Keswick, Maryport & Whitehaven. I could not recommend this place enough & wound definitely go back!"
"We stayed at White Gables in end of april 2013 as part of a group of 12 Mountain Bikers. We were actually all on the honeymoon of two of the riders who had got married during the week! We had such a fantastic stay, in fact it was no less than perfect! The welcome was fantastic by the owners who we felt couldn't do enough for us. The property itself is spacious, modern, clean and warm and the layout suited us down to the ground with the lounge and kitchen area perfect for communal living, seating large groups comfortably. There are plenty of lovely bathrooms for all which is ideal when you are mountain biking and the property is situated very close to the local pub which is perfect for a group of bikers. We also had a meal there which was fantastic. So sorry for all the 'perfects' and 'fantastics' but I can't find any other words to describe our stay at White Gables. Book with confidence...we will be returning hopefully soon!"
"Great property for large family - younger children loved the games room with their own area and adults enjoyed the open plan upstairs.Friendly hosts, local pub good food and easy walk, recommend!"
