Wow, this was a wonderful spot, from the countryside, the home, the little lambs, the hosts, the village and the accommodation. The rooms were so nicely decorated and had lots of warm little touches including tea, coffee and fresh milk. There was also a great little sitting room with a real fireplace so it was possible to relax in privacy... More

We were originally scheduled to stay in two bedrooms in the house but then at the last minute we were switched to the self-contained cottage as the builders had not finished the renovations at ground level. In the summer it would be an amazing place to base yourself. In the winter it is a little remote. That said our hosts... More

I can be quite picky about places I stay in but everything about the Old Coach House was flawless. As soon as we arrived we were made to feel welcome and offered tea and scones in an idyllic garden.

Paddy and Sue are wonderful, the gardens are lovely, the rooms are clean, beautifully refurbished and comfortable. The breakfast is delicious, with local produce (including eggs from the garden!) and home baked bread! Cannot fault the place, one of the best B and Bs I've stayed in.

Spent three nights in superb surroundings. Positioned in a lovely setting. The house, room and hospitality is 5 star. Sue and Paddy were the perfect hosts. Breakfast each morning made from local produce. They cooked a three course evening meal on our last night which completed a fantastic short break. Many thanks Paddy & Sue
