What a beautiful house, everything as described and more. Set in serene, quiet woods, with lovely walks in the 8 acre grounds. The dog loved it. Cleanliness was of the highest quality. The house had a warm and cozy feel to it, we wanted to stay longer. The hot tub felt luxurious and every need was met. Julie and Paul were the best hosts and could not be more helpful. We will definitely be back soon. We have found a wonderful little gem in a beautiful part of Devon. This House come highly recommended and deserves the rave reviews. 5 Stars .

Perfect break
We’ve just come back from this perfect hideaway. Everything that was needed was in close proximity of the property and the additional bonus onsite of children’s play area as well as the beautiful walk and the rope swings which the children loved! Julie and Paul were more than accommodating and great hosts! We’re in the process of rebooking!

The booking process was easy and the detailed information sent by Julie before we arrived was very helpful. The Coach House was well laid out and had everything we needed and is set in beautiful grounds. It is in a great location to explore the nearby coast. We will definitely return and recommend to friends.

Lower coombe Royal The Coachhouse
The Coachhouse was very comfortable with great beds and bedding, nestled among a rural woodland as described and a very peaceful setting. Julie and Paul extremely helpful hosts, Paul went way beyond by towing the car from it's position after getting stuck between two edging logs, it was a cold Sunday morning! A lovely stay overall.

Lovely time, would stay again
We loved our stay in the coach house. The property was a lovely standard and modern but still charming. All the beds and bedding were comfy, and the showers too.
The house itself is in a unique little mini site which was great for our dog to explore, and beautiful for us to stroll through too. The garden patio was great for BBQs and evening drinks, but we did need to block the patio sides a bit so our dog would escape and take himself off chasing rabbits! Makeshift gates did the job, but might be useful to have something there as we’d love to stay again.
Also walking distance to Kingsbridge, easy parking, easy to find and close to lots of beaches and other beauty spots.
We hope to stay again in the future!

The Coach House
The Coach House has a great location in a private wooded estate on the edge of Kingsbridge (a 10 - 15 minute walk to the shops, cafes and estuary). The house is clean and well furnished and fitted out. We would recommend the Coach House as a great base for exploring Kingsbridge and surrounding south Devon.

We stayed for 2 weeks and loved every second of it! The house was well stocked for the basics we would need, had toys and books for our kids to play with.

Lots of room for all 6 of us to snuggle around Eurovision on the sofas afterwards, eating the scrumptious home made treats provided by our hosts.
