“On a positive note the barn conversion is in a fabulous quiet peaceful location only a few miles from Kendal and it has been done beautifully converted ,bathrooms etc,then stuffed with what I imagine is dozens of unwanted ornaments and glassware .”
The bedlinen pillows and duvet & cover were appalling, old and worn
out ,again old stuff no longer needed by the owner and ‘ these will do for the barn .’
Manmade flat as a pancake pound shop pillows , brushed cotton bedlinen old and bobbled so awful that we went out and purchased cotton sheets and pillowcases .Certainly not what we would expect for the price of the rental, I have got better dust sheets . The towels were old & grey , tiny bath towels , my husband and I are slim ,heaven knows how a large overweight person would manage
Communication with lake lovers was appalling .The fortnight before our stay I telephoned and e mailed Lakelovers many times requesting information that had been posted previously on revues regarding shortage of mugs plates etc asking if we needed to take extra ,I wanted to know if there was a coffee machine so that I could take the appropriate pads . No one bothered to find out and reply . I requested the contact details if the owner to ask fir the information directly , ‘ oh no that’s not allowed .’
There are indeed only 4 of everything .How does that work ? Use the dishwasher after every meal wasting water electricity etc ???
I purchased Nespresso pods with my Tesco delivery & they were incompatible. No coffee for us then.
Other than basic china the kitchen is fantastically well stocked with all manner of utensils pans casserole dishes etc .
Regarding views as stated on your website , I don’t know who thinks one small kitchen window with overgrown shrubs and roses and a brick shed blocking the window constitutes a view . All the other windows were either slits or roof velux . There are no views from the barn . The lounge and dining area is SO DARK that lights needed to be left on all day .
So to be clear the fault is not with the owner the fault lies with Lakelovers misrepresentation in the barn description.
Come on Lakelovers pull your socks up .
We will avoid booking with you again .
