We have stayed at Barn End twice before, a lovely quaint cottage in outgate that has previously been exactly as the listing and beautifully clean and well presented. This time we didn't find this was the case. The house was covered in cobwebs, particularly bad in the kitchen and shower area which was unfortunate. We completely appreciate the nature of the cottage location and that bugs are only natural but the extent to which these cobwebs covered the inside of the house just really wasn't acceptable. Additionally, the cutlery and kitchen crockery were dirty and needed dishwashing immediately. Overall we're really disappointed with the property state and it has reduced our want to book again. The property is quite expensive for the amount of space you have but we understand it is representative of the area it is located, this is something we didn't think twice about after our previous wonderful experiences. This time, we are questioning how well spent our money has been.

Ofcourse the end of the barn, is the end! But a nice space with all you need for a short week stay. We found the inside a bit dusty, it could do with a better cleaning at places under the bed, floors, the inside walls. The sofa or bench is not a comfortabel sit. But in general we liked it, well equiped kitchen. The suggestion of the owner to eat at the Outgate Inn....... better not! Terrible food for too much money!!

The accommodation itself was excellent, clean and comfortable. The only negative point is when the garage door directly beneath the flat is slammed shut, it makes a tremendous bang, shakes the flat and made us jump thinking there had been a crash outside. Other than that, we had a lovely stay!

Cosy little cottage in a great area. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed was very comfortable and the shower was great! There is some traffic noise but this wasnt an issue for us. Good value for money accommodation!

This is a lovely little cottage with everything you need for a week long stay, with a well equipped kitchen. Despite other reviews mentioning traffic noise, which yes you can hear, the best weeks sleep was had for a very long time. The bed is very comfortable. The cottage is ideally situated for travelling around the Lakes with some lovely walks right from the cottage with the local pub a 2 minute walk along the lane. We found no issues with parking by the barn plenty big enough for a Qashqai. All in all would be quite happy to book Barn End again. Only 1 tiny issue the heated towel rail in the bathroom was not working and only mention this as owners may need to sort this issue, but as the cottage gets lovely and warm especially with the log burner was not really a problem at all. A really nice week was enjoyed here both by ourselves and our labrador.

We really enjoyed this cottage which is perfect for two. However, coming to the end of the year it does need a bit of a refresh with the paint. Some of the walls were a bit grubbydirty marks. From other reviews people had commented on noise, you can hear the noise from here but it isn't a hugely busy road so was pretty quiet later on. Access was good and views were good too. Great pub The Outgate Inn a two minute walk from the property with good food and drink

The cottage was very cosy and warm. It had everything we needed. The welcome biscuits were appreciated and are a lovely touch. It felt modern and well equipped.The windows let every bit of noise from outside in, so they obviously need upgrading. However, luckily its a really quiet area so we wasnt too bothered. The car parking space outside the barn was just right for the car, however if access was needed to the barn, then this would have been an inconvenience as we dont always want to go out for the day, and there didnt seem like there was anywhere else to park. I liked the choice of tv channels and I loved the log fire. The sofa was comfortable. It was an induction hob in the kitchen so people with pace makers wouldnt be able to use it. Everywhere was clean except when you looked alittle closer there was dust here and there. There was also mould all over the bathroom. WiFi signal was great but no phone signal for me EE. It feels secluded somewhat but Hawkshead and Ambleside are very close by. Overall a lovely stay. I would recommend.

We arrived at 3. 45 and the bed was not made up and dirty towels in shower not impressed.not hovered or clean. 2 people came after phone call but not to standards . No mention of the bend of the road close to cottage as it is b road the traffic was a constant noise we left 2days early to get some sleep also no proper fire exit I work for draeger who make fire equipment!!!could do with some decorationkitchen upgrades as fridge is very noisy .

The accommodation was as described. Comfortable and equipped to a normal standard for holiday homes. It did look as if some of the information in the guide was missing. Heating instructions very sketchy we only managed to get 2 rads working. The awful weather we had meant we always had wet clothes to dry too. Cooker instructions non existent, but we managed. Nice touch that washing up equipment and bathroom bits were left. Nice to be able to bring our dog but the lack of outside space meant, to us, that Barn End wasn't particularly pet friendly. Overall we thought the accommodation was good.

We absolutely loved our stay at Barn End. It has been designed really well, with everything you need. Although small it makes really good use of the space. The bathroom is a really good size with a lovely hot radiator. We loved the foot stall as it made the sofa really comfy for two people. The kitchen is very well equipped, one of the best cottages we have stayed in The Lakes. Also there are 6 beautiful Le Creuset mugs which was fantastic. All the equipment is good quality. Only small criticism is it could have done with an additional frying pan. The fridgefreezer is an under counter one. However although the freezer section in the fridge is small, I managed to just fit in my dogs raw dog food for the week! The fire is so cute and extremely easy to use. It draws really well and therefore doesn't take much to get it going. The car park space in front of the barn to the right of the steps was plenty big enough for our Passat. We had no issues with this all week. Yes you can hear cars going past, but it didn't bother us at all and added to the charm of being in the village. They could do with updating the single glazed windows like next door have done. This would make a huge difference. There are some beautiful walks straight from the doorstep to Hawkshead and Wray Castle. A few cleaning bits here and there could been improved. For example the skirting boards and dog hair attached to the feet of the chair! But I'm being quite picky now. All in all we loved our stay and although we never go back to the same place, we would be tempted to do that with Barn End.

What a lovely place to stay. The cottage had everything we could possibly need for self catering. It was very comfortable, lovely big bed. Nice modern shower room and kitchen. Great location with walks right from the door down to the lake at Windermere and Wray Castle. And a nice pub just 2 mins walk away. Hadnt realised so much would be provided in terms of dishwasher tablets, tea towels, etc so that was a bonus. The little box of tea bags and biscuits etc was a nice touch too. Only negatives were that it was freezing cold inside when we arrived and took ages to warm up once we put the heating on. The towel rail in the bathroom didnt work but we reported that so hopefully already fixed. And we only tried parking inside the barn once very tight and we dont have a particularly big car. And we got back to find wed been blocked in by someone else parking in our outside space. None of these would stop us booking again though, we had a great time and thought everything was a really high standard. Thank you!

Lovely modern, bright and clean loft accommodation. All very comfortable. Would love to visit again.

Perfect size for us 2 people 1 dog. Loved the place and the area. Thank you for letting us stay!

Although the accommodation was as described, parking was an issue. The parking was along side their barn, space was limited to get the vehicle off the road. The barn was offered as alternative for parking but this would have been extremely dangerous manoeuvre requiring blocking the road by a blind bend with fast moving vehicles. Other points, the microwave was difficult to use due to its position, a small coffee table would be useful and the bathroom floor grouting could have done with a good clean. On the plus side the bed was extremely comfortable and kitchen well equipped
