The caravan was very spacious and clean and we found everything we needed there. The location is beautiful, not in the heart of the Lake District but still surrounded by beautiful things to see and fun things to do.

This country guest house is situated just 3 kilometres (2 miles) from junction 40 of the M6/A66, offering you a small, luxurious and homely alternative to regular travel accommodation.

Some hotels and guest houses can be very impersonal and soulless, treating each guest as little more than a name or number. At The White House Guest House, we are very different, focusing our efforts on providing a personal and unique service, where all our guests are treated as individuals.

Lovely stay!!! Owner was the kindest person, who recommended me great trips around and was extremely nice to my dog. Breakfast was perfect, full English with fresh fruit, delicious porridge and many dog treats. Would be back anytime!

A traditional family-owned pub in Greystoke, The Boot and Shoe is only a 10-minute drive from the M6 motorway. The Lake District National Park is around 30 minutes’ drive away. There is free Wi-Fi and free parking on site.

The character of a delightful old pub I've known for over 50 years, has been well maintained.
