The Old Coach House Reviews

Anthony
Lovely cottage, lovely pool (good size and temperature) Lovely helpful owners. Nice quiet location, Great breakfast at the Deli, entertaining barmaid at the pub. Likely to return.
B M
The Old Coach House is a charming cottage . It is clean, comfortable and the pool is fantastic. Although the cottage is in a quiet village, there is plenty to see and do in the surrounding area. The owners Mr and Mrs Tubby, who live next door, are friendly, welcoming and helpful.

We had a lovely, peaceful and relaxing time at the coach house. The weather was lovely so we were able to make full use of the wonderful swimming pool. It is the main reason we booked the holiday. The pub and deli are great for food and breakfast and literally just round the corner. The owners were very nice and attentive. It was reasonably priced too. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
