Lanes Barn in Whitby is highly praised for its cleanliness, cosy and well-furnished interiors, and well-equipped facilities including unexpected WiFi. The picturesque location is ideal for walkers, though some guests suggest it's less suited for cyclists. The property's rural charm is enhanced by nearby livestock, and it's a great base for exploring the North York Moors & Coast. Some minor issues with quilts and light in bedrooms were mentioned, but overall guests enjoyed their stay and many would love to return.
Guests consistently noted the property as very clean, with several reviews highlighting the spotlessness of the barn. The high standard of cleanliness contributed positively to their overall experience.
The location is appreciated for its quietness, suitability for walkers, and proximity to local attractions. However, some guests noted the lack of a view and the challenging terrain for cyclists, slightly affecting the score.
The property is described as cosy, warm, and comfortable, with a special mention of the underfloor heating. Some guests mentioned issues with heavy quilts and the need for blackout blinds, which impacted the comfort score.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen and the bonus of WiFi. However, some guests noted the absence of certain expected amenities like a DVD/CD player and the need for summer-weight quilts, which slightly lowers the score.
While guests have mentioned a welcome bottle of wine and the helpfulness of the property owner, there are not enough references to specific thoughtful gestures or gifts to accurately score this category.
