“We liked the property very much!”

It was great for a large group, lovely spacious living area with fantastic kitchen. Really appreciated the number of bathrooms, comfy beds and the outdoor space.

Also, the couple of local paths that we tried to take (as mentioned in the description) were impassable, too many nettles, brambles etc Thankyou!

“We had a wonderful week at White Gables.”

On arrival the house was beautifully clean and well presented. White Gables was a relaxing home away from home. Well equipped with everything needed and more for a large group. Plenty of space in the lounge/dining room to accommodate everyone. All the bedrooms and bathrooms were immaculate. Outside areas were great. Cheryl was very friendly and helpful when contacted both before and during our stay. Sofas in the lounge and outside benches are a little tired but this did not detract from our experience of our stay. We have already recommended to family and friends. We would love to return for another family gathering. The area has so much to offer.

Kim August 2025

“We went as a large family 9 of us and we all felt very comfortable in this lovely house.”

The kitchen is very well equipped but if there is anything else you require the owner is very willing to try and get it for you. The owner is very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the large garden for playing and also a very nice outside sitting area. There was nice walks from the house down to the river and it was only about a 10 minute ride to the big supermarket. There is a very nice pub just at the end of the road. We would love to come back to this property in the future.

- Kim, August 2025

Thanks Kim for your lovely feedback Glad you & all the family had a great time. Hope to see you again Property Owner

“Amazing house which is really well equipped for a family get together.”

Adrian June 2025

“Wow - what a wonderful week we had!”

Cottage is immaculately clean, kitchen is very well stocked and all the bedrooms and bathrooms are superb. Wi-Fi is very fast. Garden is huge and we had the good fortune to go when the weather was warm and sunny so could enjoy it! Pub next door was well worth a visit and there are multiple stores within a ten minute drive. Cottage is well situated near Keswick, Workington, Cockermouth etc. One thing worth mentioning is that the 2 televisions, while having free view, were not smart TV’S - no access to Netflix, Prime etc. I took a firestick with me so would recommend doing the same. Would highly recommend!!

- Adrian, June 2025
John June 2025

“Great cottage in an excellent location for exploring the Lake District by bike.”

There was plenty of room for a party of 9 and the hosts were very helpful. We hope to get back there sometime soon.

Hilary May 2025

“We - an inter-generational family group of 9 - had an absolutely super week staying at White Gables.”

The house is really impressive - several times during the week one or other of us would comment on how perfect it was. It is very spacious with lovely, attractively decorated bedrooms, very well equipped kitchen/dining area and such a comfortable lounge area. It was so easy to just relax into the house from the beginning of our stay. It was lovely having seating outside the French windows as well as a large grassy area, which was ideal for football games! The house is decorated and furnished to a high standard - I really liked the upcycled furniture in the double bedroom I was in - and there were lots of attractive little touches that made the rooms more interesting and attractive. The lounge area had three long sofas with lots of cushions and some throws and was an ideal space in which to chill out and to play crazy games! There was ample parking and the directions we were sent beforehand were very helpful. We thought the house was in a great position - off the beaten track but within easy reach of the Western Lakes, Cockermouth, Keswick etc. Cheryl was really helpful if we needed anything but never intrusive in any way. It was clear she and Colin have put lots of thought into making the house somewhere very special in which to stay - and they have succeeded! We can't recommend it highly enough - it's brilliant!

- Hilary, May 2025

Thank you Hillary for your lovely feedback. It is nice to know that our guests have had a lovely time staying at White Gables and appreciate all the hard work we do to keep it to a high standard. Hope to see yous again the future Property Owner

Tabitha April 2025

“Highly recommend this cottage.”

It is beautifully decorated and there is a lot of space. Our kids especially liked the pool table and darts. The view from the lounge and garden is amazing. It was the perfect location to explore the Lakes and we recommend the Sunday roast at the local pub! We had a fantastic stay.

- Tabitha, April 2025
Anne March 2025

“We loved staying at White Gables.”

It was really well set up for a group of 10 friends. We all had our own bed and the social dining/sitting area was wonderful. Really nice kitchen and appreciated the 4 bathroom areas ( 1 en-suite). Great location for visiting the Lakes area generally. Would definitely recommend.

Craig October 2024

“Stayed with family of 12 of mixed ages from 6months old, up to 70.”

Could not fault the accommodation, games room was used every day, and kitchen was lovely, with ample space for us to all eat our meals. Pub was literally 2 min walk away, and there was plenty of places to see in the surrounding area on the occasions that we ventured out. Would definitely recommend the cottage. Communication with the owner was excellent.

- Craig, October 2024
David September 2024

“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.

Julie August 2024

“Amazing weekend away!”

! The photos for this house do not do it justice, it is huge!! Set in a beautiful quiet little village with a pub situated within a couple of minutes walk that serves lovely food, was ideal for our little break. The house is beautiful inside and was spotlessly clean. With a large garden at the rear, which we sat in to stargaze and a patio area leading off the living area, it was just perfect. I would highly recommend this property and we are already planning another visit next year. Communication has been excellent between Cheryl and myself and I just want to say a huge thank you for organising the return of my daughters make up bag, it is greatly appreciated.

Beverley June 2024

“Lovely house with comfy beds, plentiful bathrooms and all necessary kitchen accessories.”

Great location and excellent hotel with great food nearby! We’d booked a family holiday and took my elderly mum. Unfortunately, she found the settees in the lounge went too far back and were too low for her to get up from comfortably. Apart from this I would not hesitate to recommend this holiday home!

- Beverley, June 2024
Zara June 2024

“House was fantastic.”

Decor lovely and everywhere was spotlessly clean. The owner provided lots of games,books and DvDs which was a nice touch. There was also extra everything i.e towels, pillows and duvets. The garden was large and we enjoyed a good game of rounders. The only negative is that some of the beds were uncomfortable.

- Zara, June 2024

Hi Zara thank you for your feedback. Would you be kind enough to let us know which beds where not comfortable so we can address this issue please as we haven't had any comments regarding this before Kind regards Cheryl Property Owner
Leslie May 2024

“What a wonderful property.”

“We had a fantastic few days at White Gables.”

The property is clean , spacious and fully equipped with all the facilities we required, with the added bonus of a games room. There is also plenty of parking space. The location is good ,very quiet with views across open fields. Great Clifton is a good location for exploring the Area and we would recommend The Old Ginn House pub and restaurant, a 5 minute walk from White Gables , the food is very good. Cheryl ,the owner of the property was very helpful and friendly and it was lovely to meet her. Overall we would highly recommend White Gables, we could not fault it and we hope to revisit again in the future.

Hayley February 2024

“10 out of 10 White Gables was absolutely the perfect house for our group of twelve.”

It was a great place to celebrate my partners 50 birthday with family. Open plan lounge dining kitchen made it a fabulous area to socialise.House was very clean and everyone slept well. This property has 4 bathrooms which made things so much easier when getting ready. The queen room has a lovely view to open fields and was very peaceful. The games room was a great space to chill with DVDs and plenty of books to choose from. We would love to return in the summer months to make use of the outside space and BBQ. The local pub( The Old Gin House) is very close, I'd say less that two mins. We ate there and all our meals were marvellous. The hosts of White Gables are lovely and you feel nothing is to much trouble for them, they live nextdoor so were on hand, but in no way intrusive. There was nothing lacking whatsoever. Would recommend in a heartbeat . We enjoyed days out in St Bees, White Haven, loweswater Hayley and Family

- Hayley, February 2024

Thank you Hayley for your lovely feedback & hope to see you again in the summer Property Owner

“We had a lovely 3 night pre Christmas break with our children & Grandchildren.”

The property is beautiful, very comfortable and has everything you need. The location is good with it being close to Cockermouth, Keswick, Workington & Whitehaven and the local pub/restaurant (The Old Ginn House Inn), is a 2 minute walk away. We wouldn't hesitate recommending White Gables to others & we will definately book again.

Melissa October 2023

“What a great holiday cottage.”

Ideal for a large group, extremely clean and well equipped, a real home from home. Great location within east reach of many of the Lakes. Would highly recommend White Gables and would not hesitate to come back again.

- Melissa, October 2023
Kath October 2023

“White Gables is absolutely fantastic.”

If you are looking for somewhere for a large group, this is definitely the place for you. Ample easy parking for at least six cars. Six excellent bedrooms- including one which doubles as a large well equipped games room. Very comfortable beds. Beautifully made up rooms. Very handy storage room. Four bathrooms. Excellent large, spacious open plan living/dining/kitchen area with plentiful seating for everyone. Everything you could wish for in the kitchen. Spotlessly clean throughout. Cheryl was extremely helpful in answering my questions and helping with restaurant recommendations before our stay. And we knew that she was just next door if we had needed her during our stay - which we didn’t. All in all, a brilliant place to meet together with family or friends as there is plenty of room for everyone to have their own space but also fantastic communal areas. Add to that- it’s in The Lake District - what more needs to be said!

- Kath, October 2023

Thank you Kath for your lovely feedback. It was a pleasure to have your group staying with us. Glad you enjoyed your birthday celebrations & I will pass your comments on to my cleaning team. Property Owner

“Great house for a large family holiday.”

The host was brilliant, communicated well and there for any issues you may have. Lots of space inside and outside. Kids loved the downstairs games room/bedroom. Good for public transport routes and there is a cracking pub virtually next door that did really nice food. Highly recommend.

- Jo, August 2023
Sandra July 2023

“Beautiful, spacious property.”

Really clean. Great for a family holiday, there were 12 of us & there was plenty of room, so you were not on top of each other. Only a few quibbles, it could do with a larger oven & more freezer space, plus it would benefit guests to have a tumble dryer. We did lots of outdoor activities & because the weather was unpredictable, we struggled to get items dried. All in all a fantastic house, would highly recommend

It was very well equipped and comfortable. It included plenty of toys and equipment for very small children. The broadband and TV worked very well. The outside area was excellent for sitting out and included a large grassy play area. The owners who live next door were very helpful. If anything, the property was better than the Sykes photos suggested.

Inside great to have a games room with a pool table and dart board as well as a good selection of DVDs to watch and books to read. Plenty of board games also provided to get everyone involved! Plenty of bedrooms with drawers and wardrobes to store everything in and a big living room/dining/kitchen open plan present with very comfortable sofas and dining area and kitchen well stocked with everything you can think of from cutlery/plates/mugs/glasses (for all types of drinks) to pots/pans/steamers/food processor/dishwasher/washing machine etc etc!

Book now without worrying about anything!!

- Adnan, October 2020
Marie July 2020

“Beautiful, large house with excellent facilities.”

The huge, open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area is a definite bonus for a large family gathering. The house looks out onto open countryside and the large garden was well used. The games room was also a definite asset and the kids (men included!) spent lots of time in there. The local pub/hotel, which is literally a few yards away, served excellent food, very reasonably priced. The owners (who live next door) were very friendly and helpful but completely respected our privacy.

- Marie, July 2020
Kelly January 2020

“An absolutely stunning house in a beautiful area, stayed in many houses via Sykes but this was the best by far for 6 adults and 3 children ranging in age.”

Everything was catered for and everything you could possibly need was available in the house. It was spotless on arrival and the pictures dont give it the full justice as to how beautiful it really is! The owners were quick to reply to any questions prior to our visit and after an unfortunate car breakdown they were absolutely amazing in assisting us and couldn't have done more. We will be back to visit and thanks again for a lovely few days!

- Kelly, January 2020
Rachel November 2019

“What a fantastic house!”

- Rachel, November 2019
Sian October 2019

“Very spacious cottage.”

Perfectly clean, with great facilities. Loved the games room and a big open kitchen/diner/lounge. Kitchen had everything we needed also. Was very close to a great pub which served lovely food with friendly staff. Would highly recommend, be great to return in the summer months.

- Sian, October 2019
Kathleen October 2019

“This was a beautiful, well equipped cottage, beautifully decorated in a beautiful area.”

The owners were very friendly and helpful. We were there for 3 days and hardly left the cottage. The weather was nice enough for us to sit outside, plenty space for the children to run about and with the games room and loads of board games etc there was more than enough to keep everyone (adults and children) entertained. Highly recommend

Richard August 2019

“White Gables is very easy to find from the directions supplied, being only a mile or so from the A66 but still having a lovely country feel.”

There is loads of parking and the hosts, Colin and Cheryl, are lovely, helpful people. The house is brilliant for family groups with the games room giving a separate area for any children who are well-catered for with separate TV, video player, loads of DVD's, books and games. The dartboard and pool table were great attractions! The dining table seats ten with ease and extra bar-stools are nearby. With four different bathrooms/WC's, there are plenty of options for different sections of the party. A large selection of crockery, cutlery and really big saucepans enables catering on a mass scale to be easy. Lots of fridge space, a freezer and dishwasher were much appreciated. There is also plenty of outdoor seating in two separate areas, along with a good-sized grassed area which is very safe for small children. The weather during our stay wasn't brilliant at times but be aware that no rain = no lakes to see! Just assume that you may get wet at times, dress appropriately and enjoy. The rivers and streams in this part of the world are the cleanest I have ever seen and the air-quality is excellent too.

Wendy October 2018

“White Gables is a beautiful House set in a lovely location.”

It doesn't have the 'Holiday Let' feeling at all - rather its very homely. The standard of decor, cleanliness, equipment etc was extremely high. We holiday each year (7 adults and 5 children) and this was definitely just right for us. Easy reach of main attractions and walks but very comfortable for just staying in with a great garden for the children to play in - even had toys and books !!

- Wendy, October 2018
Amanda October 2018

“Fantastic break at White Gables!”

“Fabulous house with more than enough room for everyone (our party was 6 adults, 3 children and a baby).”

The number of bedrooms and bathrooms helped our individual families to have their own routines yet be part of everything. The house is well equipped and the garden safe for the children. The owners were friendly and helpful. The location suited us well with many amenities, walks, lakes, and other places of interest just a short drive away. Can very happily recommend this accommodation.

- Avril, July 2018
Helen June 2018

“Lovely house.”

.. A bit TARDIS-like, seeming much bigger on the inside. Quiet location though the view could be better! Comfortable beds. It's a shame the two in the games room aren't proper beds as my 6'3" son didn't find his bed very comfortable. Talking of the games room, we all had great fun playing pool.. was a real treat having the table. Kitchen well equipped. Ample bathrooms and the showers were good. Good parking provision. There's a little garage shop about a mile down the road otherwise it's 4 to 5 miles to Workington for Asda or Tesco. About 5 miles to Maryport and South Allonby Bay which is a nice beach with a Roman fortlet and Anglon-Saxon saltpans to visit ( for free ) near Crosscanonby.

- Helen, June 2018
Tammy June 2018

“This place was fantastic, it was clean, and had all the things we needed for a great family holiday.”

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.
