Fun for all the family and romantic for couples: Whitbarrow village is a great place for a family holiday be as energetic or relaxed as you wish. There are many beautiful walks around and about. The pretty village of Greystoke is only a few minutes by car and is well worth a visit with its beautiful old church, village post office and of course the local pub which serves food during the evening and Sunday lunch. During the summer the open air pool is available and along side that is the kiddies playground. From there travel on to Penrith a market town that has the charm of how towns used to be, with its small friendly cinema, this is a great experience and far away from the multi-plex cinemas of many towns these days it is well worth a visit.

This area is lovely for those who wish to go back in time and enjoy life at a leisurely pace.

Rheged with its huge cinema, Keswick with its lake: Rheged is one of the lakes popular tourist attractions, its has huge cinemas which show film of a very different nature to the local cinema these are educational and thoroughly enjoyable for example discover Everest, or a bugs world as well as the cinema there are also exhibitions, small shops and coffee shop and all this is underground for further info try their web page. Not far from Rheged is the Dalmain House a beautiful old house set in fabulous grounds with gardens and a delicious tea shop opening times vary depending on time of year again they hold various events and exhibitions.

Its a beautiful place regardless of the weather, cobbled streets, tea shops specialist shops and fun things for the kids, crazy golf, pitch and putt plus nice restaurants. The lake operates sailing trips these vary depending on the time of year, but its a great way to sit back and relax.

Two short video's are on You Tube (Whitbarrow Village)

Go further afield to Carlisle or down to Windermer: A beautiful old city with its castle it makes a lovely place to wander and is the gateway to the Scottish borders, whilst staying at Whitbarrow you really can see a large part of the lake district. Go south and you come to Windermere what some people regard as the main tourist place, it is well worth a visit as is Ambleside and so many more places in the lakes, everyday can be spent exploring one of the most beautiful places in England or if preferred just staying at Whitbarrow village and relaxing in the pool or jacuzzi, having a drink at the bar and enjoying the evening entertainment the choice is yours.

Great week away

5 out of 5
Review Submitted: 21 October 2012 Date of Stay: October 2012
We've just returned from a week at this holiday home and it was great. We went with our two kids (3 and 6) and we all had a ball! The house was lovely - very clean and it had everything you could need. The resort is great - the pool is open from 9am to 9pm each day and we went every day! There was a kids playground and crazy golf too and it's all included in the price as is wifi at the reception, bar and restaurant. We ate at the bar a few nights and it was very reasonable - around £20 for pizzas and drinks for 3 people. The staff at the resort were very helpful and very friendly. I emailed the owner of the holiday home several times before our trip to check various things and nothing was too much bother for her. We would definitely recommend this house and we would love to return to it again.

Tranquility

Review Submitted: 14 October 2012 Date of Stay: October 2012
We have just returned from a wonderful week at Kirkstone No.12, Whitbarrow Village.
We were a family of four, two children aged 8 & 6.
We had a glorious week of weather which allowed us to get out exploring the Lake District every day. It is an area neither my wife nor I knew at all, so we really wanted to get exploring.
The house is ideally located, very close to the A66, west of Penrith. A short drive from the delightful town of Keswick, from whence most of our movements around the area commenced.
The house is well described by the owners on the web page, 2 good size bedrooms, a double en suite & a twin, & a smaller room containing bunk beds, which of course our two commandeered. The twin room didn't stand a chance!
The open plan living area, lounge, dining room, & kitchen is located upstairs. For our family, this gave a lovely 'at one' atmosphere.Whilst an adult was preparing a meal, another could be watching TV or reading & kids playing a game at the table, but everyone was together.
The house is well equipped. I normally find beds away from home a problem but found this double extremely comfortable. The suite in the lounge likewise.
There was a good array of cutlery, dishes, & pots etc. The only thing I lacked the entire week was a wooden spoon, everything else was there.
The leisure facilities are very good, a beautiful pool, c/w jacuzzi, steam room & sauna, also a well equipped gym.
The changing room facilities are absolutely excellent.
We used the restaurant on the Sunday evening for the carvery & found it good quality & good value for money.
I arrived extraordinarily stressed from work issues & found within 48 hours, much to my wife's relief, I was relaxed & back to the person I prefer. I am in no doubt that this was due to the combined tranquility of the environment of the house & the wonderful outdoor surroundings of the Lake District.
Our kids had a blast & having left yesterday, simply want to know when we're going back.
I shall have no problem returning & conclude by saying that is the highest commendation I can give anywhere.
Enjoy....

A wonderful week!!!

Review Submitted: 03 September 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
We have just returned from an absolutely fabulous week at Whitbarrow Village and cannot recommend the property, resort and area highly enough! We are a family of 5 with 3 children (6, 4 and 1 years old). We were lucky with the weather and managed to get out and about each day which was great. There are so many things to do and places to visit nearby that we didn't do all we wanted to! (We didn;t have time to do the horse riding.) We did enjoy trips to Buttermere via Honiston Pass, Windermere, Beatrix Potter World, Keswick and the Pencil Museum, Dalemain Country House, Castlerigg stone circles, Ullswater Steamers and Grasmere. It really is an excellent place to explore the Lakes from. The property itself is super. Very nicely presented and well equipped. It is an interesting set up with the bedrooms downstairs and the living area upstairs which works really well - the kids loved it being a topsy turvy house! The resort is great too. We were in the pool every day with the kids learning to swim and ate in the restaurant twice. Would recommend it - very child friendly in the early evening. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and communication with the owners was easy and efficient. Many thanks for a wonderful week. Would love to return at some point.

Lake District Family Holiday

5 out of 5
Review Submitted: 16 August 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
We stayed at this beautiful cottage for a week from 6th August and on arrival, were very pleased indeed with the accomodation. Very clean, neat and tidy, and we liked the 'upside down' setout.

The site itself was also very well set out. Very clean and welcoming,

We used the pool every day which our children loved, it was always lovely and clean, the restaurant upstairs was great too, lovely food.

The staff were always very helpful indeed. We had nothing to complain about atall and would definately recommend this to anyone.

The only thing I would say is that the site would really benefit from a small shop and maybe a cashpoint machine. We found a lovely farm shop just at the bottom of the road on the A66, but we only found it on our last day, wish we had know about it sooner.

We would definately love to come back again. The owners of this cottage were excellent in taking our booking, you couldnt ask for a better service. Many many thanks, From The Harper Family of Hertfordshire.
