    “Our stay at Whitehouse was excellent for a group of 5 for a week - four bedrooms and bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen and plenty of space to relax, eat and talk.”

    Whitehouse is well located in a quiet street 10 minutes walk from Derwent Water and 5 minutes walk from the centre of Keswick, with private parking for two vehicles outside the kitchen at the back of the house - altogether a great place to stay for a family or group whether working, walking or site-seeing. The only reservation was the lack of egg-cups in an otherwise well provided kitchen including scales, salad-spinner and plenty of mugs. Are boiled eggs no longer a thing?

    Thank you for your lovely feedback. Sorry there weren’t any egg cups! I shall definitely buy some for the house. So glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
