"There are a number of issues, 1st notified to the caretaker on day 1."
The toilet in the upstairs bathroom should be replaced completely due to the ill-fitting seat. 2nd bathrooms should have hooks on doors to hang, e.g., bath robes or towels. 3rd, the downstairs bathroom has an electric shower, and the water pressure is really poor. 4th, the front door has seen better times, and the wood was flaking off. 5th, in the bedrooms you need some furniture with mirrors and arranged near plug sockets for ladies to dry hair and apply make-up. 6th, again in the upstairs bathroom the mirror was not over the basin and no shelf over the basin to put e.g. tooth brush etc.
Hi Saeed thanks for your feedback on arrival there were two items reported you requested a fan as you were to hot due to weather & raised the point re toilet seat when offered to assist you said it would be fine on inspection at changeover seat working fine however as its soft close can take time to close . with regards to other items raised both bathrooms have hooks & towel rails shower/water pressure has been checked & seems to be working fine bedroom mirrors are located close to power points & upstairs bathroom mirror position to right of basin due to comb ceiling basin also on vanity unit for storage purposes . i,m so sorry you haven't raised these points during your stay as we would have been able to assist .
Thanks again for your feedback Kind regards Alexander

"Overall our stay was great."
The property is spacious and comfortable, the beds were very comfortable and the TV was great, giving us access to all streaming services. The property was clean and well presented, the flowers a lovely touch. The position of the property was perfect. The views were lovely, the railway station was only 10 mins away and it was within an hour or so of both the east and west coast. Was within easy reach of major supermarkets. We had a couple of minor issues that were resolved immediately. Thank you for a great stay.
Hi Lesley

"As 2 x families of 4, we had a wonderful stay at the Barn, Drumbow Farm."
Would recommend and stay again if visiting the area. Plenty of space for the children to play and the hot tub kept them very happy. Nice hot showers, washing machine came in very handy as did the rest of the amenities in the kitchen. Cot and highchair were also provided and clean (we did bring our own bedsheet for the cot), big table for us all to eat together, fresh flowers in vases was a nice touch along with the welcome fruit and cookies, tea and coffee etc. The kitchen tops, table, showers, toilets, beds and towels were all clean and comfortable to use. The barn was mostly clean throughout, only thing that could have been 5 star would have been if the fridge shelves were cleaned and the downstairs bathroom floor. However we had been left access to the broom, mop and bucket along with dishwasher tablets, washing machine tabs, washing up liquid/kitchen roll/wipes/sponges etc which was very helpful. Location is very remote and so is quiet and peaceful, surrounded by nature, but only a short drive to local shops. A good base if planning on being out visiting local attractions (Loch Lomond, the Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel were a highlight for us) and you want somewhere spacious, peaceful and comfortable to return to (with hot tub and TV for entertainment too!).

"We would like to thank the owners for a lovely stay."
But we do feel there are a few points that need to be given on first inspection the house looked lovely and clean. Although it is lovely and clean there are a few areas that were missed on having a tidy up we noticed it wasn't as clean/ tidy as first looked, on pulling out the sofa there were decorations from a previous guest, there were wotsits stuffed down the side of the sofa, the carpets upstairs were covered in fluff, the main bedroom upstairs the large one attached to the jack and Jill bathroom, the bedding was covered in black fibers.
There were packets of crisps in the back of cupboards.
The toilet seats in both bathrooms didn't fit the toilets and were loose. The doors in the jack and Jill bathroom kept popping open. When you shut one or other of the doors.
The most dangerous thing was one of the chairs in the kitchen, one of the chairs legs had no screws holding the chair leg in, luckily it was only a child who was sitting on it.
These are all small issues which have not spoilt our week.
The positives.
It's a beautiful large space for the families to relax, the sofas are so comfortable amazing to relax in after a long day of sight seeing,
The Barn has everything to you could positively want, and it was lovely that there was enough of everything .
The hot tub is immaculately clean and well maintained, a welcome treat at the end of an afternoon out
One thing you may want to add is a list of local takeaways that deliver to the Barn.
The views are stunning.
We had just about every type of weather Scotland could offer.
The busicuits and fruit on arrival were a lovely welcome treat.
Would we use the Barn again yes without a doubt.
Please dont read my comments as negatives as they are all minor issues,this is a stunning place and ab ideal location to explore Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Thanks again.

"Great stay until checking out."
Met with a very unprofessional abrupt rude and impatient cleaner who would not let me back into the property to collect my phone. Which is tracked to be inside the property and was turned off after we left
Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback, we are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at The Barn. I am sorry to hear about your later experience while leaving. Unfortunately, your check out was later than anticipated and left little time for our cleaner to prepare the house for the following guests arriving later that day. We tried to give you as much time as possible to find your phone, and we also checked the property thoroughly, including the bins, in hopes of finding your phone. If we ever do find anything we will be happy to send it to you, but truly it seems to not be in the property.

"The property is spacious and has lovely views."
Everything seemed brand new and very clean. We really enjoyed the hot tub and seeing the beautiful horses in the field.
There is a lot of equipment missing that we could have done with, such as:
Hair dryer
BBQ utensils
Plastics cups (for use in hot tub)
Blinds for all windows
Washing line
HI Marion thanks for your feedback im pleased your enjoyed the lovely views hot tub & cheeky horses during your time at the Barn im sorry you missed a few items there was BBQ utensils & dryer located in the kitchen i will make sure they are more viable for future guests we did leave the blind from the kitchen window to allow full view of the hot tub & will take your other comments on board .
