Why Visit?

You really don’t have to go far for a day out, Whitehaven has lots to offer.  Whether you’re trying to keep the kids entertained or just heading out as a couple there’s plenty to keep you busy. While only 30 minutes away from vast mountain landscapes, Whitehaven is your perfect retreat for a quiet holiday, or adventurous adventure!

The shopping experience in Whitehaven isn’t like many high streets and towns where the streets are lined with shop after shop, in Whitehaven you really have to potter the streets. But you can guarantee that no matter where you are in the town, there is always a fantastic little independent business nearby.

When it comes to food and drink Whitehaven has great variety and has upped the game massively over the last few years. Whether you are looking for a traditional pub/restaurant meal, fresh and funky dishes or traditional fish and chips to sit and eat on the harbour, there is something to tickle everyone’s taste buds.
