Whitegates Cottage is a cosy, two storey cottage constructed of traditional mud and stud walls. The thatched holiday home has been carefully restored and retains many original features including doorways, floors and low beamed ceilings.

Head out from the cottage on a short drive and you'll arrive at the heart of the Gunby estate. Discover the pretty walled garden before enjoying complimentary entry to the 18th-century Gunby Hall.

Explore a little further afield and have an adventure on the Lincolnshire Wold AONB. This stunning area is the ideal place to enjoy a long walk, surrounded by breath taking scenery.

We currently have Japanese Knotweed growing along the back of the house. We are taking the necessary steps to eradicate this. As this weed is so highly invasive and can grow from small fragments broken off, can we please ask guests to avoid the area where it is growing so that they do not stand on it and inadvertently break a piece, which will root and grow, thereby increasing the problem.
