the coach house provided such a tender experience. zoe and the team were really good, they ensured my hen do was filled with romance and joy! kimberley and holly orchestrated a good cocktail session, everyone loved it. the space felt so intimate and the food was utterly divine, especially the pizza and pudding platters.
The room, though quaint, had some minor drawbacks. I noticed a bit of dust on surfaces, and the lighting wasn't ideal for applying makeup. the luggage space felt limited.

The breakfast was tasty.
The room I had was small. Dust covered all surfaces, including the window blinds. I found no practical spot to apply makeup because the mirror was too high when I sat at the desk, and the lighting was poor. There was also no space for luggage.
