The Coach House, Bank Top Farm Reviews

Beautiful property in a lovely area. Very well equipped with some lovely touches like fresh flowers and prosecco. Great base for Alton Towers but there's also a wealth of other activities in the area.
Outstanding cottage, first rate facilities and furnishings. Beautiful location, south facing patio which we really enjoyed using to watch the birds and hares in the fields .amazing views, what more could ask for . We had a lovely week , and Ive are sure it wont be the last we spend there . Thank you to Karl for his attention to detail and ensuring we had the best week.
Lesley
The property is well situated with easy access to local attractions and facilities. There are great views from the outside seating area. The kitchen diner would be a bit small for 4 people and its a shame there is only an ice box freezer however in the summer the outside space would be lovely and the hot tub and bbq are excellent.
Ronald
This is a lovely property in a quiet location with country views. The owners are friendly and cooperative, the cottage is clean and well equipped and we found it very relaxing.
A great holiday cottage in a great location. The owner couldnt have been more welcoming and helpful. The property was very clean and everything we could have possibly needed was provided. Safe location for our children allowing them to play outside when they wanted to. We had a great week away exploring the peak district.
From the warm welcome on arrival to our unrushed departure, the hospitality and excellent facilities made for a perfect week, the covered hot tub being an added bonus which was a lot of fun especially when the weather was being unkind. The area is stunning and the perfect place to explore or just chill out as we did most of the time. Karl and the family have evidently put a lot of thought into providing for their guests creature comforts, and the attention to detail is greatly appreciated, we lacked for nothing. Heartily recommend this property.
Heather
The Coach House proved the perfect base for a relaxing week. The facilities provided were excellent and all aspects were covered from strong wifi to a full wet room with disabled facilities and of course the hot tub to relax in. What was unexpected were many extras from the hosts, such as Prosecco, Flowers, Tea, Coffee and Milk. Our host met us on arrival and could not have been more attentive to any of our needs during our stay. The countryside views from our decking area and pure peacefulness of the location made it a great place to unwind at the end of the day. Not much more you could ask for and no parking issues.
Michelle
Met by Karl, charming and helpful. Amazing property and fabulous hot tub with stunning views. Highly recommend a holiday here. We were so lucky with weather too. Just beautiful. Thank you Karl!
The Coach House was lovely, clean and peaceful. The hot tub at the end of a day's walking was relaxing with good views across the field and for watching the rabbits. Karl was on hand if you needed anything and nothing seemed too much trouble. I look forward to returning.
Lovely quiet rural location but in easy reach of Ashbourne. Spacious enough for the 2 of us although kitchen dining area was cramped with little worktop space. Well equipped, modern in design and clean. Bed was very comfortable and outside space a plus.
Mrs Carole
Such a lovely place. Great for just a relaxing break or for going out and about to visit sights nearby. Very nice owner helpful informative about various things. Such as where to eat or visit. But would definitely recommend as a nice relaxing holiday. The hotub was lovely to relax.in after retail therapy. Will go back again soon.
We enjoyed our few days at the coach house, the hot tub was amazing! The owner was very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be booking again.
What a wonderful little gem we found . I would totally recommend This beautiful cottage . The owner Karl was very helpful . We couldnt have wished for anything better. It was Very spacious,spotless ,quiet and the icing on the cake was the hot tub we would definitely recommend this
Richard

Amanda
Lovely place. Very clean. Modern. Well equipped. Very comfortable. Nice quiet locatio but in easy reach of shops etc.
The Coach House is a lovely, modern and clean property with great facilities. We spent a relaxing and enjoyable weekend there for my birthday and had everything we needed for a great stay including a hot tub with view amazing! Karl, the property owner was lovely and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. He went out of his way to make my birthday weekend special. We would happily stay again and highly recommend the property to others.
Jeanette
We had a fantastic week away. Karl, Helen and Pip where absolutely fantastic host. Nothing was to much. The cottage itself was spotless and very spacious. I agree with the 5 stars it as. Thank you once again Jeanette and Ste Bagley and Michelle and Joe Moore. X
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 kitchendining 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.
Stayed in The Coach house one of 3 properties at Bank Top Farm for a week. The owner, Karl met us on arrival and did a tour of each room plus the hot tub, making sure we were happy with them. A bottle of bubbly along with some other things were a welcome surprise. The house itself is fitted out to a high standard and the garden enjoys some wonderful views even from the hot tub. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing holiday or for a base to explore the surrounding areas. Thank you Karl. It was just what we needed
Lawrence
We had a really great stay at Bank Top Farm Cottages which began with a warm and friendly welcome from the owner. The complimentary bottle of chilled prosecco was a very nice touch. The house has everything you could need and felt luxurious with comfy beds, lovely terrace, a huge TV and not to mention the hot tub which was a highlight! Would not hesitate to recommend and we will be back.
Stuart
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.
Our holiday at The Coach House was wonderful. The owner Karl and his family did everything to ensure our stay was perfect in every way. The welcoming touches like the prosecco on ice waiting for us on arrival, milk in the fridge and fresh flowers were so thoughtful. The cottage is very well equipped and extremely clean with quality furnishings. Huge comfy beds ensured that we all had a very restful stay. The surrounding countryside and views from the outside decking are beautiful yet it's only a short drive away from a range of supermarkets, good pubs and restaurants. We'd all love to come back.
Catherine
We had a wonderful holiday in The Coach House. We were looking for a comfortable luxurious holiday with plenty of space for a family of 4 with two tall teenage boys. This property fit the bill perfectly. Karl could not do enough to help us but not over bearing in any way, just right. The perfect host. We had everything we needed and more! The teens enjoyed Alton Towers and we enjoyed the beauty of the surrounding area and soaking in the tub in the evening and watching the sunset. We will be back! It was simply perfect!
Owner Karl was very welcoming and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Accommodation itself was first class, had everything you need for a relaxing holiday. View from hot tub was amazing. Beds & pillows super comfy best we have had. Biggest TV ever, like being in the cinema. Plenty of parking. Everything was spotlessly clean, including the barbecue. Would highly recommend this cottage to anyone. Thouroughly enjoyed our stay and meeting Karl.
Had a loveiy stay 10 out of 10
5 A real home from home, the extra mile Karl,Helen and Pip went to make our well needed break much appreciated, theyre always on hand but not intrusive. The Coach House was perfect for us 4 adults but similarly would suit a family. The beds are 5 hotel quality, and the kitchen is well sized with everything required for cooking a large roast, fry up breakfast or snacks. Watching the sunset from the hot tub or soaking in the views whilst chilling on the decking was just what I wished for and will definitely be returning.
We had a lovely week at the Coach House and a very warm welcome from Karl who made sure we had everything we needed. We really appreciated the little extras, the Prosecco when we arrived and fresh flowers were so thoughtful. We would highly recommend staying there!
Absolutely incredible stay here! Hosts were amazing, accomadation amazing and such a beautiful location and area. The lodge was absolutely spotless and Karl is a fantastic host who you can tell cares so much about his guests and that they have a wonderful stay. Will be recommending to family and friends and will definitely be back soon!
This was a lovely place to stay we need for nothing the owner Karl was there if we needed any think very nice man . Will go back

Excellent facilities and lovely cottage! Highly recommended
We had a lovely Christmas break despite the weather, even managed to cook a full Christmas Dinner! Karl & family were perfect hosts and even arranged for Santa to arrive early and leave presents under the Tree. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending the Cottage for a perfect break.
Ronald
From the moment we arrived, Karl was terrific, nothing was to much trouble, we had a bottle of bubbly on ice it was our 25th Anniversery, all through the week he maintained contact to ensure we had a great stay, the property well this was 5 star plus,plus, all the comforts of home and more. The weather was wet but we really enjoyed the views, peace and quiet was wonderful. we had a few short trips out and really liked the views of open countryside. We came home refreshed,ready to face the Christmas and New Year period glad we had stayed at this wonderful property.Ron aand Lesley
This cottage has everything you could want and more! We received the warmest welcome, guided tour of the facilities and left to enjoy it as if it was home from home. Ohand that viewbeautiful.
Gillian
Really lovely cottage. Great facilities, really comfy beds and amazing hot tub. Area around the cottage was beautiful and quiet. Only drawback was the noisy neighbours who kept us awake on the second night but that cant be helped
William
Beautiful property and scenery, which added to an already relaxing stay. Great hosts and the bottle of bubbly was a lovely welcome. Will definitely be staying again.
Absolutely fantastic little cottage. Everything we needed for our week in Derbyshire. Girls loved the hot tub and the cinema room!!! Communication before and during the stay with the owner Karl was brilliant and he even let us carve the giant pumpkin. Would definitely recommend to friends and family and will look again at booking for next year.
Claire
A wonderful stay in a perfect, peaceful location for exploring the beautiful Ashbourne area. The property is beautifully kept and weve never experienced such comfy beds! Huge thanks to Pip and her family for the warm welcome and for being on hand in case there were any issues there werent. We stayed for seven nights with our 2 children 5 & 10 and even though the autumnal half term weather wasnt great we found lots to do every day and enjoyed lots of time in the hot tub & cosy films with the cinema tv & Netflix. The local pub is a short drive and does the best homemade chips and the Tissington Trail, Thors cave and Dovedale were all just a short drive away. Range of local shops & bigger stores in Ashbourne is great too. Highly recommend and would definitely love to return.
My son and support staff enjoyed staying . Loved it
We had a lovely stay. The coach house is situated in lovely settings which was made even more lovelier relaxing in the hot tub. The place itself was perfect for 2 which was the case but suitable for a family. Highly recommend. Thank you for the welcoming bottle of bubbles!! A very nice touch!! Jody sporle and Kathryn aldred
