The Coach House Barn Reviews

Daniel
Great stay, lovely house, host was very helpful and accommodating. Would definitely recommend.
Joanne
Simply perfect. Between our 3 couples, we have stayed in a number of sykes properties over many years, this is the best. Spotlessly clean throughout, beautifully decorated with great taste. Stunning property in a beautiful location. Very high quality linen, interior, hot tub. The garden is beautifully thought out with hot tub, pizza oven, decking, fairy lights and seating. The kitchen is very high spec with all the equipment you could need. Lounge is perfect for a cosy night in around a roaring log fire. Bedrooms are decorated beautifully with very comfortable beds, quality linen and great wet roomsbathrooms. Our hosts were superb, very welcoming and a great knowledge of the area, where to eat and drink etc. Very dog friendly. A dog wash in the garden and a boot room as you go in, to clean them down and dry them off. We could not find fault with this property at all. Higher than 5 star. Already looking to go back again.
We stayed for a weekend at The Coach House Barn and it just wasnt long enough. The barn itself is just stunningly beautiful from its decor to its setting. Its incredibly comfortable and well proportioned. The outdoor area was just as comfortable as indoors and we took advantage of the hot tub and the pizza oven thanks Wayne. Our hosts were superb and nothing was too much trouble. Quite simply we loved it.
Jeanette
A lovely weekend break with family at Coach House Barn. The owners were really lovely and made us feel very welcome and relaxed. The cottage was exactly as described, very comfortable and perfectly decorated. Ideally located for a few short trips out to the local area, and we took full advantage of the BBQ and the hot tub, which was a fabulous treat, especially for our grandchildren who loved it ! Perfect family weekend get together will definitely be back.
Had an amazing Easter weekend at The Coach House Barn! The property was beautiful and spotless throughout, cosy cottage feel but had all the modern amenities. Made use of the pizza oven on the sunny evenings we had which was impressive and the pizzas were delicious. The hot tub was such a treat, especially after doing some of the stunning walks around the area. The owners were absolutely lovely and so helpful before and during our stay. We will definitely be back! Thank you!!
Elisabeth
The cottage is wellequipped, attractively decorated and comfortable, with highquality furniture and fittings, and in a quiet, pleasant setting. Our granddaughters loved the hot tub and the owners' dogs and cat! The owners are charming and helpful and we would thoroughly recommend this property.
Ashlea
We really enjoyed our stay for our friends birthday. A weekend spent eating good food, lazing around the cottage and enjoying the sun. The barns are decorated perfectly, Wayne and Julie couldnt do enough to help us and really made us feel at home. So lovely! The area is gorgeous and peaceful, the perfect relaxing break! We will definitely be coming back.
Hilary
Fantastic holiday cottage with everything we needed. Comfy beds, settees and fabulous bathrooms. We really enjoyed the hot tub too.
Deborah
Amazing hosts! We were made to feel so welcome and there was not anything the hosts could not do for us. House is so luxurious and was a great place for a family get together. Will definitely be booking up again soon.
Natasha
Such a lovely stay. Amazing facilities and our hosts were great at getting us anything we needed. Would definitely come back again.
Louise
An absolutely perfect break please see review below Just back from a lovely stay at the Coach House Barn for New Year simply WOW! The barn itself is total luxury, providing everything we needed and exceeded our expectations by a mile the Church bells and festive lights twinkling in the garden on arrival were very magical. The owners Wayne and Julie are quite simply the loveliest couple, so welcoming and nothing too much trouble. Great village location next to a beautiful church and The Plough Inn a few mins down the road serve great food too. We very rarely stay in the same place twice but we cannot wait to return. Thanks so much for having us we couldnt recommend more highly. Lou & Paul
Stuart
For us this holiday cottage was all we wanted and more. It offered quiet seclusion without complete wilderness and was so well placed to visit some stunning locations. We visted Ludlow on the first day and trecked up Carding Mill Valley on day 2. Both a short distance from the cottage. There is so much to do. We couldn't fit it all in and plan to return to take in more of the countryside and local history. The cottage was beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean and well equipped. The bath in the bedroom was ridiculously comfortable! Tea and coffee was provided but you need to bring your own coffee pods and milk. The welcome hamper was such a nice touch on arrival. Wayne, our host, was so friendly and accommodating when we asked for help but gave us complete privacy at all other times. He recommended an excellent gasro pub near by in Little Stretton which provided the perfect hearty lunch after a morning of hiking up waterfalls. The village of Wistanstow itself is charming and perfectly quiet and rural just what we like. The pub was closed when we were there but we didn't mind as we found the hot tub, the wood burner and Netflix or reading was all the relaxing entertainment we needed. We will definitely be back and have recommended it to several friends already.
This was a fantastic property perfect blend of modern and traditional. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very luxurious, however it was still cosy and comfortable. We loved the hot tub the outdoor area would be perfect for summer evenings. The locations was quiet and peaceful and the surrounding countryside is a completely hidden gem. Wayne and Julie the owners were very friendly and welcoming. We would definitely go back!
Leanne
The coach house barn was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend with the girls. Top of the range facilities with very welcoming hosts. Julie & Wayne have thought of everything. A very pleasant stay, we would love to return in the future thanks for having us!
Tracey
Julie and Wayne were very welcoming. The Coach House Barn exceeded expectations. We loved the hot tub and pizza oven!
8 of us, 2 grandparents, 2 parents and 4 kids under 7, booked the coach house at Wistanstow for a week. We had a super time. The hot tub, the pizza oven, bbq and grassy area all had plenty of use. The cottage was roomy and comfortable and the facilities were all good quality. The owners, who lived next door, were friendly and helpful. Nice to hear the church bells ringing too. Only negatives were poor WiFi and a surcharge to use the bbq. We would definitely recommend this property and we will probably book again in future.
Derwyn
Fantastic Cottage and facilities and top draw hosts in a lovely location.
Excellent facilities and location apart from the TVWiFi which continually broke up when watching tennis and football, particularly during penalty shoot outs! local pub was closed most of the time, could only eat there twice in 7 days and church bells very close to property ringing every 15 minutes all through the night made sleeping very erratic
Stephen
Could have done with more cutlery, cups, plates etc. Only 1 per person so felt was constantly washing up items to reuse. Could have done with more hanging space in bedrooms for clothes and in bathroom for towels. Over the door hooks or coat hooks on back of door would have been useful. Otherwise lovely property, with excellent outdoor facilities, would definitely stay here again.
Booked the Coach House for a get together to celebrate my husbands birthday and this exceeded or expectations. The accommodation is beautiful and spacious. Outdoor area with hot tub was also lovely. Wouldn't hesitate to return.
The hosts were amazing as was the property. You cannot go wrong if you book this property, it was perfect. Unbelievable value for money for the luxury on offer.
Family of 6 and 2 dogs, amazing break. The cottage had everything you could possibly need. The pizza oven and bbq were brilliant. Were already thinking of booking next time. The owners were extremely helpful also
What a beautiful holiday home. The welcome pack was such a lovely touch and all local produce so thank you to the hosts for that. The cottage had everything you needed and was so clean and done to such a high standard we loved the roll top bath. The hot tub was great, lovely garden furniture and so peaceful. The local pub is well worth a visit and the food was great. Lovely areas all around. Definitely worth a visit
We had a lovely relaxing stay at The Coach House. Its a fabulous property in a beautiful location. The house was done to such a high standard and had everything you could possibly need. The hot tub was a real plus point for us, so relaxing and very well maintained. The owners were very friendly and communicated regularly with us. We look forward to returning!
