The ground floor serves as a sanctuary for rest. You’ll find two double bedrooms, each designed with a focus on serene comfort and high-end finishes.

Ascend the staircase to the first floor, where the building’s heritage truly shines through its vaulted proportions. This expansive open-plan level is divided into two distinct social hubs. On one side, a plush lounge and formal dining area invite you to unwind in style. Opposite, a chef’s dream kitchen awaits, fully equipped with a double oven, integrated dishwasher, and a secondary dining breakfast area. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee or hosting a gourmet dinner, this space is the heart of your holiday home.
While the luxury of The Old Coach House might tempt you to stay indoors, the surrounding area is a treasure trove of experiences. Nestled in a prime location, you are perfectly positioned to enjoy a mix of tranquil countryside and vibrant local culture.

Foodies will feel right at home with an array of award-winning gastro-pubs and quaint tea rooms within easy reach. Spend your Saturday morning browsing the local farmers’ market, where you can pick up artisanal cheeses, fresh sourdough, and organic produce to cook back at the coach house. For a bit of retail therapy, the nearby market town features independent boutiques, antique shops, and craft galleries, ensuring you find the perfect memento of your stay. Whether you seek high-octane adventure or a slow-paced escape, this area delivers the perfect holiday backdrop.
