  Cannot rate this stay highly enough.

  From the moment we arrived, Karl did his utmost to make us feel at ease, at home and ensure we enjoyed our holiday to the fullest. The home has everything we could possibly need*. The two bedrooms are of great size and very ideal to have two separate bathrooms. The lounge was of great size. Perfect lighting , heating and the tv and sound bar were great. The hot tub was great, impeccably maintained and had views to die for. A bonus that the hot tub was covered. The views and this feature were something that made the property standout. Kitchen was spot on and we cooked each night and morning we were there. The info book provided and pictures on the kitchen wall were all extremely helpful. We went for walks and explored the local area but primarily made use of the perfect accommodation. Our stay was over new year and Karl made clear from the start that his priority was for us to enjoy ourselves. Would return without hesitation and feel the property is probably underpriced! Thanks so much for a perfect experience - couldn’t have wished for more! *the only thing we couldn’t find were table mats to eat at the dinner table. Obviously, did not spoil our stay one joy and it’s more likely that my poor observation skills couldn’t find them.

  We booked this cottage after looking at the reviews and they were not wrong.

  This is an exemplary cottage with attention to detail and comfort. Our week started as soon as we arrived with Karl (owner) giving us the introduction, nice bottle of Prosecco on ice and flowers - one happy wife! Cleanliness is second to none, beds extremely comfortable also. Beautiful quiet location, with amazing views. We came up to Derbyshire to see family and it was never a problem to have them over at any time. Our (9yr old) daughter made full use of the hot tub, as did we when we could. BBQ was excellent addition and with beer in hand, looking out over the views, there was nothing like it. 2 other properties adjacent but never intrusive, and if we needed anything at all - Karl (and his wife) were attendant immediately. Even daughter Pip brought over the new welcome back. We have stayed in several holiday lets in the UK with other companies, but this stands out for all the right reasons. Thoroughly recommend at any time of year and we will back - thankyou Karl and family.

  We stayed 2 nights - 21st & 22nd June 2021.

  This was our first time away from home since Feb 2020 due to Covid restrictions. We were apprehensive about staying away from home but having both been fully vaccinated we decided to take a short break, not too far from home. The property was spotless, comfortable and had hand sanitiser as well as antibac liquid soap in both the bathroom and kitchen. Although located in the middle of the town, it was really quiet with only the chirping of birds waking us in the morning! Although small, it was well equipped, would be easy to eat in should you wish. Lovely to have milk, coffee and tea as well as basic cleaning equipment and fresh flowers provided. Having a free parking space a short walk away, was a real bonus. We really enjoyed exploring Ludlow, eating out for the first time in over 16mths. All the shops, restaurants and attractions were all very Covid compliant.

  The accommodation was lovely.

  It took half an hour of circumnavigation of Ludlow to find, but that was because we didn’t know Ludlow very well and signage was a bit vague. The owner provided details of a very useful parking place and daily exercise was beneficial going to and from this gem as parking in Ludlow is at a premium. As you would expect in February, the weather was VERY weatherish, storm Dennis accompanied us on our journey to Ludlow, and storm Jorge followed us home, but with a combination of waterproof skin and determination many lovely locations were visited, splashing to and from them. We admired many cavernous potholes in Shropshire’s road network, and this made our journeys adventurous to say the least. So to sum up, accommodation 10/10..overall holiday 9/10.

  We had a lovely relaxing stay at The Coach House with my elderly parents.

  It's in a beautiful location and very quiet. The owner Karl is really helpful without being intrusive. The beds are amazingly comfortable. The hot tub is a bonus although, beware: I hurt my back lifting the lid on and off on the first use - It's definitely a two person job and even then it's tricky due to the siting of the hot tub. The kitchen/dining room is very small but functional, with very little worktop space or user friendly cupboard space to store your groceries etc. Also, there is only a small fridge with a mini freezer compartment. but with several supermarkets 5 miles away we didn't need to buy too much in one go so we managed. Overall, we had such a nice relaxing time - just what we needed.
