The Coach House was a perfect base for our 4 day break with canal walks and easy access to the surrounding market towns. The views from the property were stunning and waking up to a view of the Sugar Loaf mountain was idyllic. The garden was beautiful with spring flowers and plenty of wood for the wood burner. The house was warm and cosy with everything we could have needed. Parking was close to the entrance with steps or a steep ramp to the entrance. The Kitchen / Dining room was so well appointed with very good quality cast iron casserole dishes and crockery and an easy huge stove and of course a dishwasher. The entrance was so practical with ample peg space and boot rack for coats and walking boots and was lovely and warm when we came back at the end of the day. The TV had bbc iPlayer and Netflix too so kept all the party happy. The lounge was very comfortable and in the summer would open on to the pool area. It is important to be aware of the steps both outside and in otherwise it really is a perfect holiday cottage for all. The lay out gives privacy and plenty of space for everyone. The hot water system is excellent and rain showers have very good pressure. My favourite thing was the view through the round window of the surrounding countryside. We would highly recommend this cottage to you.

Pleasant stay, beds are comfortable, showers are ok, plumbing was a bit temperamental at times. Nice kitchen and lounge. Loading and unloading of vehicle to house is a bit of a chore and if arriving at night it’s very dark, sensor lights don’t stay on long enough. Nice easy walk along canal to pubs in either direction. Local amenities are good for a short break.
