2nd time at this wonderful, cosy cottage, we had such a relaxing, peaceful break. Fully equipped to a high standard with lovely walks from the door -incl 2x nature reserves -we saw osprey and cuckoos. No shop in the village so take what you need but perfect for a complete break away

We have just returned from our second visit to 2 Kiln Houses, our first was in July. We had an amazing time, and it was lovely to see the surrounding landscape change with the seasons. The cottage is very clean, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. We would highly recommend 2 Kiln Houses, and we will definitely be returning!

We had a wonderful holiday at 2 Kiln Houses. The cottage is very cosy, and beautifully decorated. The local pub is amazing, definitely worth a visit. Bouth is a quiet village, and we enjoyed some great walks around the local area. We loved it so much, we have already booked to go back!

Despite multiple issues we enjoyed our stay in the cottage. Attention to all the minor issues will make a significant improvement for future customers. I recommend that instead of the TV amplifier behind the TV, one installed right at the aerial (a masthead pre-amplifier) would probably resolve the TV reception issue.

Location

Map
Note: As the postcode is used to identify the general area of the property, it may not always reflect its precise location, therefore please only use this map as a guide.

Adventure, memories and awe-inspiring natural beauty await you in the rugged, wild and unique Cumbrian Lake District where beautiful expanses of water merge with magical forests against a backdrop of dramatic mountains and fells.

This ancient land has been sculpted by time and nature and is the newest UNESCO World Heritage Site and the first UK National Park to be awarded this outstanding accolade. Poets, writers and artists throughout the ages have been instinctively drawn here; William Wordsworth, Beatrix Potter and John Ruskin, to name a few. The attractions and the diverse landscape will not fail to charm the young and the young at heart, whether that be thrill-seeking activities you seek, pure and cathartic inspiration or simply just some relaxation, you will find it here.

Cycling, walking, canoeing, white-water rafting, flying, parachuting and ballooning are just some of the offerings for any level of adrenalin junky. Experience the glory of nature in the wild or in a setting such as the Predator Experience where you can walk with wolves and learn about the importance of conservation. For a complete day of family, enjoy treetop capers at Go-Ape in the Grizedale Forest.

Vibrant towns and villages are there to be discovered, be it by land or water. You can step back in time and enjoy a steamboat cruise on a lake or leisurely unearth the dynamic scene of contemporary art, culture and some of the best dining in the UK by foot, bus or car.

The National Park is an area of breath-taking beauty that will leave you spoilt for choice, refuelled and inspired. So much so that you’ll want to come back time and time again.
