“The Homestead was cosy, very clean and spacious. The games room was very welcome and used well.
Parking was great, with extra parking across the road.
Views of the viaduct were really good.
A couple of things that the owners may like to consider are 1. A handrail at the last few steps on the top of the stairs. 1. A few more serving dishes and a jug for gravy and/or custard.

“Stayed in the granary for 1 week and was the best week away we have had on a UK Holiday the location, the cottage, the village and walks was perfect and Aimee could not be more helpful along with Pancake & Waffle (Pet Sheep), already looking to go back in the new year ASAP”
“An excellent little apartment perfect for a short winter break right by the sea. Well set up for an elderly parent with mobility difficulties. This was our second visit and would come again but there was a few noticeable maintenance issues since our last visit a year ago. The bath plug doesn’t seem to hold the water and drains out of you’re not quick and some of the crockery needs replacing as chipped. I think some new pillows in the main bedroom would also be good as they’re rather thin and lumpy. Having said that it’s beautifully decorated and so well located that we would still recommend this little gem”
“Recommend the Coach House at Bank Top Farm the owner Karl was so welcoming and helpful the property is very comfortable with the added bonus of a hot tub, plus the surprise bottle of prosecco and milk.
The view across to the woodland and open fields is stunning.
Ideally located to explore the area for us it was a short stay visiting near by Alton Towers for the rides and amazing fireworks and Chatsworth Christmas Market with the festive house and gardens .
We really hope to stay at The Coach House again to explore the beautiful Peak District.
Thank you so much Karl”
“Our fourth visit in as many years confirms our views on this warm, well equipped, delightful cottage. Gill, the owner, thinks of everything and provides a real home-from-home and superb base from which to explore this wonderful area.”
“The Lodge is an excellent well planned, spacious holiday home. Situated in a quiet backwater and ideally placed for the short distance into Lyme and not far from Jurassic Coast beaches such as Burton Bradstock.
The owners have put a lot of thought and effort into the layout with much emphasis on accessibility. This was appreciated as my wife is currently using a wheelchair.
Although very functional it is also very homely, attractive and warm for November nights in. The lodge is also spotlessly clean with everything you might need provided. Ourselves and dog Bertie had a hugely enjoyable week and found our host charming and very helpful. There are so many places to visit in this region without having to drive all day. Lyme Regis is particularly special this time of year, not too many visitors and the beaches have fewer if any restriction for dogs. We wouldn't hesitate to highly recommended this property.”
“Lovely well equipped little terrace house at a good price. Comfy beds and clean linen. Ideal for 2 people. Very close to everything. Good heating and plentiful hot water. Small courtyard for coffee in the sun. Staircase creaks really badly and toilet flush needs attention. Tv remote not working well. Would stay again.”
“My Labradoodle Cas and I had an amazing week in this gorgeous cottage. It was truly like home from home, well stocked with everything and a gorgeous log fire. The views were amazing. We really did not want to come home. Suzie the manager was amazing and was there via text to answer any queries. 10 *”
