The Old Coach House Reviews

Louise

Couldnt fault The Old Coach House. Photos on site dont actually do the property justice. Its huge, spotlessly clean and the decor is gorgeous its clearly a well looked after property! Beds were all super comfortable and bed linen all had a luxury feel! Owner popped around Friday with instructions for the hot tub but everything else we needed was easy to find in the property. Perfect property for ours girls weekend away would highly recommend!

Michelle

The description on the Vrbo and Sykes websites stated that there were three bathroomsshowers in addition to a cloakroom. This was the reason we selected the property, as we expected a minimum of three showers for 10 guests. There was no hot water until Wednesday morning. The owner's representative had no idea how to rectify the issue, and I ended up temporarily resolving it myself. The wireless thermostat still does not work as it is not connecting to the Hive, and the hot water is not on a timer, so it has to be turned on and off manually. The hot tub was not heating, and there were no instructions on how to operate it. The owner's representative did not initially know what to do. It was only on Thursday morning that the temperature reached 36C, so we were unable to make full use of it. Several visits to the property over Tuesday and Wednesday by the representative meant we were interrupted and could not go out. The lack of instructions at the property hampered us from sorting out these issues sooner.

The house is large and spacious and all bedrooms except the small twin bedded downstairs room were comfortable and well appointed. The hot tub was lovely and warm and well maintained.and enjoyed by all our family of 7. The garden is secluded and was much enjoyed by our son's dog, but the sound of the nearby motorway meant it was not exactly peaceful. The property is a little dated and some of the kitchen units could do with some attention, but I know that it is on the market, so can understand that this may not be a priority for the owners.

The house is absolutely stunning, and so much room. The location was also perfect, isolated enough that it was peaceful and we didn't have to worry too much about making noise when sitting outside but close enough to local, pubs, restaurants and other entertainment venues. There were a couple of minor issues, no towels, not enough toilet rolls and the garden furniture wasnt put out but these were swiftly rectified. If anything a little too swiftly as it was just after 9am, luckily we were awake but didn't expect to have someone at the door that early in the morning

Stefan

We spent 4 days at The Old Coach House as a family of four adults and five children it was a fantastic place to say. The house was spotlessly clean, well maintained and spacious with more than enough room for everyone to relax comfortably. The layout worked really well for a big family and the children especially loved having space to play. Everything we needed was provided, and the house felt homely, welcoming and thoughtfully set up. The location was also ideal peaceful and relaxing, yet still close enough to local amenities. We had a brilliant stay, and it suited us perfectly. We were really sad to have to leave. Thank you for having us!

We had a wonderful stay at the Old Coach House. Lovely accommodation and big enough for a family get together for three generations. Great to have a bedroom with ensuite on the ground floor. We had some minor issues with the heating, but the owner was happy to help. Some instructions would be useful for future guests. Great location, with lots of eating options around the Ribble Valley and plenty for the kids to do, including Blackpool Zoo. We hope to come back in the future.

Andrew

A fabulous property that enabled two families to share time together in a relaxed setting with all the comfort of home and a spa pool to add a touch of luxury. John was very helpful and on the end of a phone if we had any questions.

This is a wonderful property. It is beautifully furnished and well maintained. There was something for everyone in our party of 8 to do within the property and the surrounding area. We especially loved the hot tub and gardens. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners who made sure that we had everything we needed. We thoroughly recommend The Old Coach House for a perfect family holiday, without any hesitation!

Chayim

I would strongly advise thinking twice before booking this cottage, the kitchen has rugs on the floor which feels unhygienic, the bathroom has carpet which is completely unsuitable, and the dining chairs all have cushions that are bound to get dirty. The biggest issue is that I was charged 550 allegedly for damages, so unless you are prepared to pay this after your stay, it is not worth it. The twin bedroom has no windows, it is right next to the boiler room so it becomes unbearably hot, and it has no cupboards or storage at all. Overall this was a very disappointing experience, the cottage feels like a trap with its setup and excessive charges, and I would not recommend it.

A fabulous wellkept property with lots of thoughtful touches highly recommended!
