Great location for walking into Keswick centre. Also turn right out of the site and onto route for Latrigg - no need to drive out to start walk! Comfortable lodge with great views

It was the first time that we stayed in Whiteside Lodge. Very impressed as the lodge was clean and well kept. The necessary amenities were all provided and there is an easy to follow manual in case you need help with anything. The what to do in and around Keswick guide was very useful. The view of the Northern Fell from the balcony, breathtaking. It was a stone’s throw away from the town centre maybe about 15 mins walk. It is a good base to explore the Lake District. We would love to comeback another time.

A great Lodge in a great location, perfect for the Town of Keswick which is around a 15 minute walk away and transport links to other surrounding areas. Probably the best equipped Self Catering accommodation we have ever used and extremely quick to rectify an issue with the washer dryer when it broke. Our only comment and not a complaint would be that it would be nice if the heating was switched on during colder months for arrival as it was very cold and took a while to warm up. Thank you for a great Stay! x
