Susan our host was warm and welcoming, the property was beautiful and our room was really nice. The breakfast was gorgeous! We come to Ibstock to visit our friends for their Christmas party every year and this was the first time we'd chosen to find somewhere else to stay. Needless to say, we'll be making a stay at The Post House part of our annual tradition and we're looking forward to staying again next year!

Susan is an excellent host. Unobtrusive, but there when needed and nothing is too much trouble. She also provides an excellent and varied breakfast. Although in the middle of the village, the property is private and secure. Our room was comfortable and lacked nothing. It was also warm as the temperature dropped below freezing outside. Thoroughly recommended.

We were attending a family event in nearby Coalville and wanted somewhere convenient. The Post House was a genuine oasis in Ibstock, a very nice, friendly secure property offering an old-fashioned excellence of service. Our room was comfortable, the welcome from the owner Susan was perfect. Breakfast was freshly prepared and a standard well above that provided by the usual motel chains. We will certainly look to stay again for other famly occasions.
