The Whitehouse features a public bar area, a larger room for TV sport and live music at the weekends. There is a very popular cosy snug, accessed internally, and unusually via a sliding door (see photo). The snug has its own separate bar area, where the guest ales are usually to be found. This pub had been a prolific winner of the Isle of Man CAMRA Pub of the Year competition during the last 20 years and was again in 2018 the winner. The Whitehouse interior is of regional pub historic inventory listings significance. There is a heavy focus on community and the pub has two pool tables, along with darts, with as many as seven teams operating. Under new management as of late 2025, change is afoot, and the former long term operator has returned, Neil Keig being the father and still working some shifts, but now with son Jamie along with Marge running the pub. Several local groups use the pub including Manx language enthusiasts.
Historic Interest
Regional heritage listing
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: Not listed
Built in the 19th century, substantially remodelled in Edwardian times and again in the 1930s, when a large extension was added to the left and rear, and refurbished yet again in the late 1960s.
The lobby bar has glazed sashes (no longer working) while the small front bar has a venerable baffle and some fixed seating but the bar counter is modern. The rear room and right-hand room were refurbished in the 1960s and have some decent wood-panelled bench seating and an Edwardian fireplace, but the rest is typical of late 1960s and of no real distinction.
