We love going to the Coach House. It is always clean and comfortable. Our hostess leaves bread, butter, eggs, milk, wine, biscuits and chocolate which is super as a lot of places supply absolutely nothing!Just one draw back the stairs are fairly steep and you have to go up and down to use the toilet, otherwise perfect place.
