This was a great find. The Coach House is a self contained two bedroom cottage set in a garden location in suburban Balham. The rooms are light and airy and have a country cottage feel. There is a small kitchen for preparing snacks, bt you are unlikely to need this given the excellent cooked breakfast, with the porridge particularly highly... more

Myself and a group of friends were looking for a place to stay in London with at least 2 bedrooms. I started looking at apartments when I came across The Coach House. I'm so glad we made this choice. The Coach House feelt so homey..hidden behind a secret-garden like gate (complete with a secret-garden like key)..following the path past the... more

The location was extremely convenient, near the tube and many restaurants. It's set on a quiet street with your own entrance, which makes coming and going very convenient. Every day Harley and Meena send you on your way with an amazing breakfast. All your questions are answered and they give your other options as well. We had them arrange a... more

We recently stayed at Coach House as part of a holiday throughout the UK and Ireland. London was the first stop on our tour and Meena and Harley were kind enough to arrange a car to pick us up at the airport and bring us to Coach House. Coach House is located a five minute walk to the Balham underground,... more

The prepared full breakfasts provided for us were extremely hearty, filling and can only... more

There was plenty of room for the children and adults to enjoy themselves. We enjoyed the convenience of a fully equiped home and would highly recommend it as an alternative to a hotel... more

We had 3 free tickets to fly to the U.K., so my wife and 2 boys made our way to London. My boys are 12 and 15. I kind of waited to the last minute on accomodations and I really wanted a flat. I looked up Coach House and they hooked us up with a flat just south of Victoria... more

Our 11-year-old daughter summed it up best with her comments in the guest book: "Great house, great food and even greater people". Twenty minutes by tube to central London, a safe, quiet neighborhood to stay in, hosts that make you feel immediately welcome and part of the family, and a modernized Victorian coach house with loads of space and a... more

We traveled to London with our teenage daughter to visit our college age daughter, studying there for the semester. The Coach House was a perfect spot for us as it gave us the privacy of two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two televisions (important for teenagers at times), as well as a separate entrance directly off the street so we could... more
