Snaptrip says

High Kiln Bank Cottage receives high praise for its peacefulness, stunning views, and welcoming hosts. Guests appreciate the comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped accommodation, ideal for both relaxation and exploring the Duddon Valley. The lack of Wi-Fi and phone coverage is noted, yet often seen as a positive for those seeking to disconnect.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviews consistently mention the cottage being clean and tidy upon arrival, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that guests appreciate.

The location is celebrated for its tranquility, spectacular views, and proximity to local walks and peaks. The remoteness is a highlight for many, though it may not suit everyone.

Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of cosy rooms, comfortable beds, and a warm atmosphere, contributing to a restful stay.

The cottage is described as well-equipped and spacious, with efficient heating and great showers. Some guests suggest minor improvements in kitchen supplies, but overall the facilities meet the needs of visitors.

While guests express gratitude for the hospitality and mention friendly hosts, there are no specific references to gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews provided, so a score cannot be accurately given.

About this property

Broughton-in-Furness 5 miles. This charming cottage, attached to a Lakeland farmhouse, nestles on a fellside, 2 miles from the tiny village of Seathwaite, in the beautiful Duddon Valley in the Lake District National Park. This cottage in Seathwaite is surrounded by spectacular countryside, with breathtaking mountain views in every direction. Carefully appointed to provide spacious holiday accommodation, this Seathwaite cottage has been sympathetically restored to retain many original features including oak beams and stone flag floors. The large sitting room has a cosy woodburning stove to snuggle next to after a day exploring this beautiful area, and is very spacious with lots of room to spread out. The charming farmhouse-style kitchen has a stone flagged floor and exposed stonework, highlighting the character of this lovely old traditional Seathwaite cottage. Outside is a small terraced garden, a perfect place to sit back and admire the valley below. This Seathwaite cottage offers superb walking and mountain biking from the doorstep, with ever-changing scenery to invigorate and relax every guest. Just 2 miles down the lane is the tiny village of Seathwaite together with an excellent pub. Follow the lane as it weaves its way alongside the River Duddon, passing the picturesque Birks Bridge into the valley floor with Harter Fell and The Old Man of Coniston standing proudly at either side. This Seathwaite cottage is a perfect place to escape to at any time of the year.

Broughton-in-Furness is situated in the south western corner of the Lake District and is just six miles from Coniston Water. The village offers a cobbled square, shops and pubs. From Broughton-in-Furness walking and climbing can be enjoyed, plus the Furness railway line runs from nearby Foxfield and makes for an ideal day out.
