Had a fab week at the coach house. If you want to be out in the country with complete peace and quiet it’s the place to go. So much to do in Devon and Somerset and we filled everyday with something different. My granddaughter loved it and so did the dogs. If you want everything on your doorstep don’t go. We loved the clear sky and saw the ISS pass over. Would definitely return

The Coach House is a Somerset gem and the owners are incredibly helpful and friendly. We were greeted by a delicious homemade cake and eggs and biscuits. What could be nicer? We loved exploring Somerset from this base and it suited our family perfectly. It was great value for money and a real find to have somewhere with all the bedrooms being ensuite and done to such a high standard. It was like staying in a posh hotel. We really liked being able to have our dogs with us and they enjoyed exploring the nearby field which felt like something from a film. We will definitely stay here again if we return to Somerset.

The coach house property is lovely but location and amenties are far away , as you have to drive 30 to 40 minutes to get to a supermarket. The property is very dog friendly and big enough for a family to stay. Great holiday to relax in the countryside and lovely walks.
