Lake View Barn Reviews

A lovely property, very tasteful and comfortable for our family gathering. A lovely way for a trip down memory lane, my husbands family are from the area, thank you.
We have just returned from an amazing weeks stay at Lakeview barn. We could not of enjoyed the barn more it was fantastic. Very clean, comfortable and very well spec'd with everything we needed. It has some great modern features too which enhance the stay and experiance too. Its an ideal place to unwind and relax but situated in a perfect place to explore. The pictures whilst making it look good do not do the property justice! Its brilliant and we certainly hope to return soon.
What a beautiful, clean and inviting property. We felt welcome from the off, with lights prelit and a bottle of bubbles in the fridge waiting for us. The location is perfect for a relaxing break. We absolutely loved our time at Lake View Barn.
Valerie
From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with a warm and extremely clean interior. It was made even more special with the Christmas tree and decorations. The hot tub, games room, various board games, library of books, high speed WiFi, huge TV with the different streaming platforms to log in were all in situ for everyone to enjoy. The barn is situated close to local pubs and shops, with National Trust walks and beautiful parks all in close proximity. We will definitely book again.
Chibuzo
I felt it was a wonderful property and my wife and I even got design tips from the host. Mel was very approachable and helped us in every way possible. Everything was well laid out and worked to perfection.
We really loved our stay at Lake View Farm, very spacious, very clean, exactly as described. We appreciated the useful information on arrival regarding where to go in the area. Overall a lovely long weekend, we will definitely return.
Jeannie
The property was really lovely and perfect for our family group. Everything was spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and attractive. It had all the gadgets you could possibly need and lots of extra touches like note pad and pens, lots of board games and reading books. We loved playing pool and the fishing lake was fantastic as was the hot tub. Parking was easy and the nearby village provided a handy shop, petrol station and fish and chips takeaway. The only negative was the traffic noise, being next to a busy road, but this was not a problem for us. We had a wonderful week!
A very well equipped, clean and comfortable property. Nice and private with a lovely view of the lake. Would definitely recommend.
Nicola
Absolutely beautiful property will definitely be returning all 5 of us were very impressed. Thanks so much
Carrie

Alison
Really enjoyed our stay. Facility great. Host close by, nothing was any trouble to them. Definitely would return.
Just spent three nights at the Barn to celebrate my birthday with my husband and two adult children. The Barn is absolutely stunning, the photographs on the listing, although nice, really don't do justice to what you are getting. The Barn is immaculately clean throughout, there is nothing that has not been thought of to make the stay perfect. The owners are on hand if needed but there is nothing that you need them for as it is perfect. The hot tub is maintained daily to ensure it is ready for use, and it is perfect to sit in and watch the sunset. The lake and the wildlife that can be seen day and night is stunning. Would highly recommend the barn and would love to return and visit again. Thankyou so much x
Michael
Fantastic break would return again Would recommend to anyone who wants to CHILL
Weve just returned from a fabulous stay. What a find! Lovely setting by the lake watching the fish, the birds and the wildlife, lovely sunsets and views across the lake. The owners are on hand and are happy to help with anything, lovely, friendly and welcoming with their 3 dogs! The barn conversion is stunning, very well converted with as many original features as possible. The place is immaculately clean, the beautiful kitchen is equipped with everything you could think of. The three bedrooms are lovely, bright and airy with comfy beds, exceptionally clean. The hot tub is a lovely bonus and great in the evenings. We also used the wood fire pit and the BBQ, the electric fire pit is also available if you want to buy the gas for it nearby. The games room is a nice bonus, ideal for older children and teenagers, lots of outdoor games equipment too, even a tennis court! The outdoor seating area is lovely and we had lovely sunshine all weekend, the only thing missing was a parasol. The only negative is the nearby road noise but that can't be helped. This is the perfect place for a family get together. We shall certainly be returning, thank you for an amazing stay!
