About

The Old Coach House

The Old Coach House is a 4-star guest house on Dean Street in Blackpool, set in a characterful old building with original features. It’s a 13-minute walk from Blackpool Pleasure Beach, so it suits families and groups wanting easy access to the seafront attractions without being in the thick of the noise.

Inside, you’ll find a mix of classic and superior rooms, most with bathtubs, plus family rooms and twins. The public areas include a lounge, a sun terrace and a garden, with a games room and billiards for downtime. There’s a restaurant and bar, and breakfast is served as a buffet with a proper full English—a point several guests call out.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Comfort scores lower than other categories — Comfort comes in at 8.5, notably below the 9+ ratings for rooms, service and value—so if plush bedding or quietness is a priority, it’s worth checking room specifics.
  • No pets allowed — The guest house doesn’t accept pets, so you’ll need to make alternative arrangements if travelling with a dog or cat.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 23:00. If you arrive later, you’ll need to plan ahead to avoid issues.
  • Smaller property, not a full-service hotel — As a guest house, it’s more intimate than a large hotel—there’s no lift or 24-hour front desk, and facilities like the restaurant and bar are more limited in scope.
