    “A really lovely, spacious house in an area ideal for walking and cycling.”

    My group have stayed in numerous holiday lets in both Scotland and Yorkshire and we found that White Gables is one of the best we have been accommodated in. Although we didn't use it, there is a downstairs bunkroom with 2 beds; lots of videos, books and a pool table.

About the location

GREAT CLIFTON

Cockermouth 5 miles; Bassenthwaite Lake 15 miles; Keswick 18 miles.

The small country village of Great Clifton is in the borough of Allerdale, just five miles from Cockermouth on the western fringes of the Lake District National Park. Great Clifton has a thriving community centred round the village pub, with the area largely undiscovered and unspoilt. The countryside offers dramatic panoramic views across this constantly changing landscape to the Loweswater valley and mountains beyond, including the imposing Melbreak. The nearby rugged coastline of the Solway Firth is within a short drive and the dramatic coastal route south to Ravenglass and beyond is one of the more scenic and peaceful journeys in the UK. The nearby market town of Cockermouth is famous as the birthplace of both William Wordsworth and Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) with Wordsworth's Georgian family home, on the main street, now a popular visitor attraction, owned by the National Trust. Cockermouth boasts a variety of shops, pubs and places to eat, with the area renowned for the beautiful scenery and superb walking in the northern lakes around Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water and Derwent Water.

From 19th Feb 19 - No Stag, hen or similar
From 19th Feb 19 - This property has a £150.00 Good housekeeping bond
