About
Whitehaven station serves as a key transport link for this coastal town, providing rail connections to surrounding areas. The compact terminal sits within walking distance of the harbour, where visitors can stroll along the quayside. While basic in facilities, the station is remembered fondly by long-term users. Nearby, the waterfront features independent cafes and bars. Parking is available at affordable rates near derelict sites undergoing regeneration. Staff are noted for helpfulness, though the ticket office has faced occasional closures. The station remains a practical gateway to Whitehaven’s maritime character.
Customer Reviews
Picturesque harbour and a nice walk around the quayside. Town itself is a bit run down, although plenty of car parks in derelict building sites. Some nice cafes/bars at the waterfront. Car parking is relatively cheap.
Warning no Uber taxis ,Book a private hire before you get off ones train ... Lovely staff friendly people .
Ticket office was closed due to a technical issue. Ticket machines do not accept cash. My partner checked the train times and also noticed the price was £1.80. Price on the train to pay was £5.30. The train was virtually empty. How many elderly people, people without smartphones and people who aren't technically able are being ripped off?
