The Coach House Reviews

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we could not fault anything . Our hosts couldnt have been any better, the accommodation was perfect and the gardens were perfect for our dog . Overall it was a lovely weekend a huge thanks to everyone involved.
Michelle
We had such a great time staying at the Coach House. The property was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The owners were really lovely and even invited our boys to collect eggs from the hen house and feed the donkeys which was a highlight of the stay for them. Thank you!
Another comfortable stay at the Coach House. We enjoyed meeting the donkeys and our dog loved playing ball in the garden.
We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend! !
Lynsey

The cottage was lovely, exactly as described. Sadly the heating and hot water went out on the 3rd day and for the day and morning of our departure we went without hot water but the hosts were fantastic so apologetic and tried to resolve the issue sadly wasnt possible. They were excellent in communication. Didnt put us off returning soon
The Coach House provided the perfect base for our short stay in the southern Cotswolds, and couldn't be situated better for visiting Westonbirt Arboretum, which is literally just the other side of the road. The property is excellently equipped and maintained to a very high standard throughout, and the central heating was very effective and easy to operate, despite the absence of any instructions that we could find. The reason for our fourstar rating is that we did not find the settee to be comfortable for sitting on for any length of time, but we do appreciate that this is entirely a personal matter and is in no way a criticism of the quality of the furniture.
Christine
Return visit to the Coach House and excellent as before. Lovely location and hot tub.
Parmjeet
The cottage was really cute, ideal for couple and 2 small children definitely not two teenagers. Didnt have any spare duvet, thankfully had brought extra blanket which my son had as he had to slept on the sofa. The main fridge smelt quite bad which wasnt pleasant on opening it. As you drive into through the gates would be ideal for a road mirror to see on coming traffic. Doesnt really accommodate a dog, or anything to welcome a pet, we took our own crate thankfully, and all our pets accessories.Could do with proper cleaning of spider webs. Having said this the cottage was cute, cosy and well facilitated, the fire place was lovely. Beds were comfy and the local nature reserve was ideal for dogs walk and great nearby pubs. We also did uber eat on first night lovely Italian Hare and hound does a lovely Sunday roast

Lovely cottage right next to the arboretum. Comfortable and cosy and access to a lovely garden with donkeys and chickens and a beautiful outside space to share a drink with our friends. The kitchen was really well supplied with everything needed to self cater. Would highly recommend.
We found the property to be very clean and comfortable. Our dog enjoyed the spacious adjoining garden. The location was ideal for the visits we planned and we appreciated the secure setting. Although we found the property was well equipped we were puzzled by the absence of any coat hooks.
Dominic
We had a great time and would love to come back again. We loved the cottage it has a great layout and the air conditioning in the bedrooms is amazing. The outside space is brilliant, we loved meeting the donkeys and the sheep. Theres loads of gorgeous places in the area and we even went to the polo club round the corner and watched some matches. Great place!
Christine
We loved the Coach House! Perfectly situated near to Westonbirt Arboretum in the beautiful grounds of an old rectory. Great to have airconditioning in the bedrooms during the heatwave and the use of a shady garden. The hot tub was another bonus. It was very well equipped and comfortable. A couple of maintenance issues which we brought to the owners' attention but this did not detract from our stay and we hope to return soon.
A wonderful cottage directly opposite Westonbirt Arboretum. I was attending a wedding nearby but still enjoyed the garden and the surroundings. The hosts were more than supportive.
Brilliant will definitely be coming again!
Melanie
Just lovely and we all loved the garden and the donkeys especially the doggies will definately return later in the year
Lauren
We had a wonderful stay at the Coach House over New Years with our friends. The property was spacious and extremely clean, even robes and slippers for the Hot Tub! We brought 2 cars and spoke with the owner on the day about parking and they were nothing but welcoming and accommodating to answer our questions. We would highly recommend staying here, a lovely break in a beautiful location. Thank you so much
Beautiful location, clean property and the beds were super comfortable and quality bedding. Website does state that properties are decorated for Christmas and I did email the owner twice regarding this and received no response. I wouldnt have booked the property if I had known that it wouldnt be decorated for Christmas. There wasnt a basic welcome pack, no condiments, no oven gloves and no hooks downstairs for coats. Living room is a little sparse of furniture and could do with a few home comforts.
We had a lovely time at the coach house. It was so nicely done and spotless. We had a power cut and Emma came straight round and had a special box ready with torches and lit us a fire and kept us update with when the power would come back she was so organised and kind! Thanks for having us
Jonathan
What an excellent cottage very well equiped and very helpful owners. Everything was perfect for us.
Couldnt fault the cottage,gets top marks,the beds were comfortable and clean,the living room spacious and the kitchen sublime,the bathroom also great. Close to everything we wanted to see and do,all in all a great little stay
Sandra
An absolutely beautiful cottage. Everything was just perfect. Very comfortable beds, quality bedding and lots of fresh towels. Plenty of equipment in the kitchen so no need to bring anything with you. Great log burner for chilly nights and plenty of logs available. Immaculate hot tub which is very private. What makes this accommodation so special is the fact you can walk in the owners grounds and feed three delightful donkeys.
We had a lovely stay at the Coachhouse. Yes, you will bang your head a few times, but its worth it. Very clean and very comfortable beds. Our dog loved the paddock and was even excited to meet the donkeys. Also great to have the car charger to use. Great location for touring the Cotswolds or to visit Oxford or Bath. Nice and friendly hosts. Would suggest some coat hooks in the hallway but cant really fault. If holidaying in this area again would definitely book here.
Lovely location and property being just across from the Westonbirt Arboretum. We had our Labrador with us and it was just lovely to be able to walk out the door and across your secure paddock first thing in the morning. Thank you.
Really great stay at the Coach House. Everything really well thought about, enjoyed the log burner and the private hot tub. Even had a walk in the lovely garden and fed the donkeys. Met the host briefly who seemed great.
Stephen
We have just had a most enjoyable stay at The Coach House. The property is a very well converted Victorian coach house, and it is comfortably furnished and has good facilities. The beds are very comfortable. The housekeeper does a great job, as everything was spotlessly clean. There is access to the owners delightful large garden, and dogs are permitted too on a lead. We met the owners on a few occasions, and they were both very welcoming, and very helpful when we had a problem with charging our EV. On site charging for an EV was a real bonus. We may well visit again. Thank you.
Sarita
The coach house was an amazing home away from home! We absolutely loved the brilliant location, and amenities that were provided during our stay. Such a beautifully taken care of property which made it easy to get into holiday mode. Emma and Karl were fantastic when we found ourselves in a pickle, and went well out of their way to help! Our toddler was obsessed with the chickens and their eggs and was very excited to meet the sheep and donkeys! It was a lovely safe space for him to run around in. Cant wait to come back!!
Slight issue with the Hot Tub which was resolved very quickly by the owner. Excellent property well maintained, clean tidy with everything you need.
Claire
It was great to be able to use the lovely garden to walk the dog as the surrounding roads were quite busy. And it was the perfect base for visiting Highgrove and Tetbury
Beautiful property in a lovely part of the country. Everything was really clean and lots of thought had gone into little extras to make our stay more comfortable. The donkeys were an unexpected surprise and we really enjoyed visiting them each evening.
Lovely place to stay. The Coach House was tastefully decorated and had very comfortable beds. Ideally located for Tetbury and Westonbirt Arboretum. Would definitely recommend! Thankyou Karl.
Everything was to a very high standard. Had a few issues with the fob for the gate but managed to get it sorted out swiftly. Only issue I would say would be the head height upstairs in the bedrooms and bathroom. Its not really clear from the photos and the space in the bathroom was extremely restrictive, I could barely stand up straight any where other than in the shower. Both myself and my partner are quite tall, and feel this place would not be suitable for many people who are over 6ft tall. At the least mention it somewhere in the listing and let people be aware of the limited head height before they book.
Joanne
This was our second stay at The Coach House and we had another fabulous week here. Fantastic property, superb location and we were lucky with the weather too. We will most definitely return again as we love it here and can highly recommend The Coach House to discover this beautiful part of England.
The Coach house was nicely located for us to get around, the place was clean and tidy, I would like to point out that the cleaners had left a dirty rag on the table outside, also the mop in the cupboard needs replacing, the hoover had not been emptied also. I would also reccomend some hooks downstairs for coats and also in the main bath room , apart from that we really enjoyed our stay and would highly reccomend
Lesley
We had an amazing stay at the coach house. The shared garden is breathtaking and the children really loved feeding the donkeys and seeing the chickens. The coach house was beautifully presented, clean, homely and everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was lovely to relax in and the dog loved the fire! Would definitely recommend and will be back x
Overall very good. Very comfortable and of good quality, with many nice touches. As mentioned in Feb 24, only 4 mugs and 2 dishwater tablets for one week could be better. Also some tea cups, a full set of main glasses and an oven glove would be useful and maintain the high standard. The online 'welcome pack' brochure was very helpful. The double gates were fine, especially once we stood back to let them open! The dogfriendly facilities were appreciated. Thank you!
Abigail
Beautiful cottage had everything we needed for our stay. Kitchen is well equipped. Spacious & comfortable lounge. The beds were very comfy. Hot tub was lovely. Parking is limited and a bit tight but we managed. Might be difficult if the other cottage is occupied. Overall a brilliant stay.
We had such a lovely stay! The place was immaculate and had everything we needed. Couldnt fault anything! Would definitely recommend
What a fabulous clean property Could do with a couple more mugs as we felt 4 was not enough if you had used and had some in dishwasher And a couple of smaller saucepans Only had 2 dishwasher tablets for a 4 night stay but did bring our own luckily as write up did say tablets provided Other than that our stay was amazing and this is just feedback to make a perfect stay even better!
