  A Great property let down by general maintenance.

  We enjoyed our stay but unless things change, we won't be back. I would suggest this was OK value for money on the price we paid but looking at next year’s fees it is asking too much and even at this year’s price unless there was some changes it won't be for us. Details 1st thing I must say is the cleaners / management staff are 1st class, they gave excellent, professional and speedy responses to our questions before and during our stay, the place felt clean on arrival. Things we loved : The general space, Kitchen, large dining area, the Karaoke, the Gym, Sauna & Jacuzzi. Kitchen: Cutlery is cheap and bendy, lack of wine glasses but overall, I would say 8/10 Bedrooms: Small towels provided but all clean and tidy, the master bedroom is pretty special although not all the functions worked on the Jacuzzi bath it was still a great addition, the lighting in the bathroom was also amazing but let down by low wattage bulbs and the toilet was dark, overall 9/10 Main room: (Party Room) suffers from a lot of lighting issues, cheap LED lights that flicker, Sky TV kept cutting out, this is not really a cosy place to sit and watch TV which is why it’s more of a party room and for that purpose its brilliant 10/10 for a party night ! Gym: Well-equipped but the treadmill was not great with the belt jamming which made it dangerous. Sauna was great (not much lighting) but did the job, Hot tub only goes to 38 Degrees unlike most that go to 40 so we didn't use as we are used to ours at 40. All of this in the same area and including a shower & toilet and as you don't get all this in most places, so we need to give it a 9/10 Cinema Room: This could be so much better, it needs a new projector, it does work but VERY dim, lighting in and around this area needs work, it smells of drains between the utility room and cinema also. You can't plug a games machine etc. Power Seating Transformers buzz as other reviews mentioned. Overall 3/10 but could be a 10/10 with not much investment. My Advice: If you have already booked, go there and enjoy it, perhaps check if any of the above has been resolved, I did provide the chap with a long list of smaller issues, if they were all resolved I would re-consider booking again. If you have not booked, check with Sykes to see if there has been improvements made and if not consider other properties but anyone booking large places like this will know they usually sound much better than they actually are, perhaps I am also too picky because as I said we really did have a good time, improving this place would really not take much.

  The property and surrounding was gorgeous.

  Was hard to find as sat nav took us to big green house ,Pendle stables, but it was next private road along. You can't really see the sign til you're on top of it and at night there is no lights just a small red reflector on post . Few lovely pub restaurants nearby and lovely villages to visit. Before arriving at property, we had a call to say oven door was broken (Saturday) that was fixed but Monday and they had provided an air fryer . There was no washing machine available. Although they have two ground floor bedrooms they had a big step going into them which was difficult for me and my mum to access , being disabled. They did come quick with a couple of wheelchair ramps but they weren't ideal as we needed to use as extra step. So they were folded but unstable, so my husband went out and bought a couple of blocks for us to use instead . My mum and I rarely used living room because there were two big steps into that . For any able bodied persons the house was great . Just need to be aware that it's not accessible for disabled. They toilet next to living room was blocked , we did make them aware of this but wasn't sorted, as I said we aren't using it anyway . The others enjoyed using the pool table upstairs. And my 4yr old also enjoyed the play area outside . Although there were a few little issues to deal with during our stay , we did enjoy our time there . We saw the owner the day oven was being sorted and had a nice chat. I would recommend staying at grains barn . Just need to be aware that the ground floor is not accessible for disabled .

  On arrival I would suggest a map of the site be available at reception as it took a while finding the Lodge.

  Also, having to walk to the lodge to pick up the key and the fob needed to gain access with car was a pain. The lodge was clean and the welcoming basket was a nice touch. The bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable however, the 2nd bedroom had a matress which was smaller than the base and not to comfortable. The recliner couch looked good on photo's (home from home), but wasn't comfy at all. The back was loose and to far back when upright. I felt like turning it up end to tighten any loose bolt's as I have done with my own. There was an upright vacumm which was empty on first sight but wasn't picking up. I took a closer look and found the pipe and filters totally blocked. I cleared it and washed the filters, although not the best it did pick up. Our stay was relaxing and the weather was good and hot which meant the balcony was very well used and enjoyed. The view of the lake was very nice. It would have been good to have the use of a cantilver umbrella as the deck was in full sun from midday until sunset, also a couple of fans would have given some relief from the heat indoors.These additions would have made are stay perfect. All in all we had a good stay, liked the site with all amenities close by. We would recommend this lodge.

  My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the charming Grains Barn for a weekend getaway in celebration of my grandmother's birthday.

  First and foremost, our hosts were exceptional. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel like welcome guests from the moment we stepped in. They were always on hand to answer our questions, provide recommendations for local attractions, and ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Their genuine care for our well-being was evident throughout our stay, and it made all the difference. Grains Barn itself was a hidden gem. It's a beautifully maintained property, and what struck us most was how spotlessly clean it was. The attention to detail in maintaining the cottage was impressive, and it contributed significantly to our overall enjoyment. The cottage was well-equipped with all the amenities we could possibly need. A fully stocked kitchen and a cosy living area with a fireplace was the perfect spot for family gatherings. The bedrooms were comfortable and provided a peaceful night's sleep. Grains Barn is an outstanding holiday cottage that provides everything you could wish for in a peaceful and well-maintained retreat. The hosts' genuine kindness, the cottage's impeccable cleanliness, and its homey atmosphere make it a standout choice for a relaxing getaway. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a memorable holiday.
