We had a very wet week which challenged us daily on expeditions. However, it was a joy to come back to The Coach House which was comfortable, very well equipped and had charming owners, Martin and Jane, who could not have been more welcoming and helpful. I rent normal between 2-3 cottages a year and this was one of the most comfortable.

We would definitely recommend staying at The Coach House. The cottage was immaculate, and Jane and Martin were the best hosts that we have ever had! They went out of their way to ensure that our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. They lit a fire when we arrived and there was a bottle of wine, and fresh bread plus eggs as part of our welcome pack. We would definitely stay here again!
