What our customers say about their holidays

  This was such a great property to stay in, the location could not have been better.

  The village of Blockley is so quintessential English and very picture postcard. The cafe and shop are located next door to the property, which is so handy for a great breakfast and of course provisions. The local ‘Great Western’ Pub along with the Cafe is very good for food and everyone is really friendly. The Cafe is what we would term as ‘fine dining’ but due to the basic but very comfortable interior, does not charge over the top prices. The food was outstanding but you do need to book in advance. We did some great walks with our dog and then back to the cottage for ‘sundowners’ in the lovely courtyard and to the sound of the church bells located just behind the property. In fact apart from the church bells and the odd horse clip clopping by, you could hear a pin drop. Everywhere is within close proximity to the village, which makes it a good base to stay. The cottage was spotless and catered for all our needs, the bed was very comfortable and the en-suite shower a joy. We did stay during a very hot and sunny week (13/06-17/-6) which I know we were extremely lucky with and even better that we could go down to the bedroom at night, which had remained lovely and cool. We would definitely recommend The Bath House and will most certainly stay there again.

  The Bath House is situated in the picturesque village of Blockley which is central to all amenities.

  The cafe and store is two minutes walk away which I would highly recommend we had a beautiful meal also the Great Western Arms is a must but booking in advance is advised for both. We had a week of good weather and travelled around the local area visiting some beautiful villages and towns. Batsford Arboretum at Moreton in Marsh and Cotswold Wild Life Park & Garden Centre at Burford are brilliant days out well worth a visit. The Bath House is situated in the centre of the very busy village of Blockley with a very small car park which we did find difficult for parking as our car is quite long and it did just fit!! The accommodation was spotless and met our needs but could be better equipped with kitchen utensils and also instructions on how to use the combi oven. It has an excellent walk in shower and we found the bed very comfortable but I think the bedroom could be quite cool in the Autumn/Winter but the owner has added an additional heater to use if needed. We had a fabulous week and were fortunate enough to have a week of good weather in September which was a bonus.

  Five Stars all round!

  The Coach House delivered on all levels, exceeding our expectations and we had the most amazing week at this luxury holiday home. The property catered for our every need, super clean, extremely comfortable and the owners have gone above and beyond to ensure occupants feel at home and welcome. The property is ideally located and we visited many of the local towns and cities during our stay, with the added bonus of the use of their fabulous gardens, which our dog thoroughly enjoyed, especially meeting the donkeys, chickens and even two little lambs! This was our first time visiting this gorgeous part of England and we would definitely return to The Coach House in the future. A huge thank you to Emma for her warmth and welcoming us onto her property, we hope to see you again soon x

  The place is beautiful - it’s actually larger than my house and so comfortable, fully stocked kitchen with all the facilities you need, the most comfiest beds and bedding & plenty of towels.

  The living room is exceptionally cozy and large. Central heating & a wood burning fire for those cold nights. The hot tub was clean, warm and very relaxing. The venue itself if perfect, quiet & the owners kindly allow you to use their large garden with their rescue donkeys and chickens - my little boy loved visiting them and they are very friendly. It would be perfect in the summer with their Emma went out of her way to welcome us and give us recommendations on what we could do with our 1 year old too. My only warning which isn’t a warning at all is be careful using the toilet at 1am half asleep since this is a period coachhouse, some of the ceilings are low with beams and I smashed my head off them a few times using the bathroom. Entirely my fault!

  The cottage was very comfortable and situated in a pretty village.

  It was just right for 2 people and a small dog. It was clean and they had provided cleaning materials, tea towel, dish cloth along with washing tabs. Also they left milk, eggs, butter, fresh orange juice, crisps and biscuits which was a lovely touch. Unfortunately we did not have instructions for the microwave/oven which was a bit tricky. It would have been nice to have had a toilet brush and possibly a vacuum to ensure the cottage was left as we had found it. The Great Western is definitely worth a visit, as the welcome by Andy was great and the food was good. The only thing that spoiled it a little was that the church clock struck every hour, all through the night and they had bell-ringing practice every Tuesday and Thursday evenings for 2 hours!!!
