Whiteside

About this property

Cockermouth 5 miles and Keswick 7 miles. Whiteside is a well-positioned, single-storey lodge located in the village of High Lorton, close to Cockermouth and Keswick, overlooking the undulating hills of the Lake District National Park. Whiteside is an excellent base for a group of four guests and their furry companions, situated in a prime area to enjoy the Lakes; the lodge also benefits from off-road parking, a private veranda, and an open-plan living area.

Once you've parked, unload your bags before heading up to the lodge. Be greeted into the open-plan living area, which has a well-equipped kitchen, a dining room table that seats four people, and lots of plush seating.

Take advantage of your magnificent surroundings by stepping outside, setting up the picnic bench, and enjoying the scenery with a glass of wine in hand. Choose between a double bedroom with an en suite shower room and a twin bedroom with a second shower room; both bedrooms are tastefully decorated, helping you feel at home.

Starting in Whiteside, be ready for an adventure-filled itinerary. Note: This property can be booked with Ref. 1133602, together sleeping up to 8 guests.

Despite being only 13 miles from Keswick, the sleepy agricultural market town of Cockermouth is located in the peaceful northwest region of the Lake District. The National Trust presently operates Wordsworth's Georgian family home on the main street, which is a well-liked tourist destination. The town is well-known for being the birthplace of both Fletcher Christian (of Mutiny on the Bounty fame) and William Wordsworth. Cockermouth has a nice selection of stores, bars, and restaurants, but (obviously) the area's major draw is the stunning scenery and fantastic hiking in the northern lakes, including Bassenthwaite Lake, Ennerdale Water, and Derwent Water.
