“We would like to point out that the small village hall directly opposite was systematically demolished during the complete week of our stay, culminating in the concrete being totally crushed on Friday 14th.”
DID you not know this was going to be done, if not, perhaps you should continually review your portfolio, as all the locals new it was going to happen. (However, this did not impact our stay as we were out most of the days) Works commenced at between 8 - 8:30 each morning, except on Sunday.
There was NO spare toilet rolls left, which meant we had to purchase some.
The SWINSIDE INN is closed and according to all the neighbours we spoke to, this is NOT going to be opened as a pub in the near future, but as a shooting lodge for the Lingholme estate. (We feel your information should remove the fact that the Swinside inn is just but a mere 1/2 mile walk up the lane. Last year we would agree with that statement, as many an evening we visited it.
We did enjoy our stay and will almost certainly visit again.
We are sorry to hear your holiday was impacted with the demolition of the village hall, sadly this was totally out of our control. We had been told by a neighbour that this would happen the beginning of June, as you can testify it didn't but the week following. We have instructed Lakelovers to send you 10% compensation of which I hope you will find acceptable.
I am very surprised no spare toilet rolls were there as there should be at least 2 spare left on the cistern. Spares are kept under the stairs for future reference.
Thank you for informing us about the Swinside Inn, we are happy to tell you that the Inn is open and was very popular on Saturday when I visited. It is within walking distance of Swinside Cottage and has been recently refurbished.
