Spacious Coach House
This very spacious historical Coach House had much character and was nicely appointed; a very comfortable place to stay.
My daughter, son-in-law, grandson, wife and I were visiting the area to attend a wedding. The house checked off all the boxes and was as described. We stayed for three nights.
The place was very clean and well presented. Dawn left biscuits/cookies, crisps, milk, tea, coffee and a great kitchen ready to use. This was very welcoming. Very good size living and dining rooms.
The location is situation just off High Street so it made easy access to stores and restaurants. The house however overlooks the Green Dragon outdoor pub area. Needless to say there was pub noise in the evening.
When we booked we were not aware that two weekends every October Marlborough holds their annual Mops festival and closes High Street to traffic and sets up amusement rides and stalls. Alternative paid parking must be used at the Kinney Place public car park, 7 pounds/day. Not really too far but an inconvenience when having to tote luggage and a baby.
There are two bathrooms- a small ensuite with shower in one room; a large shower room and a separate bathroom for the other three rooms. No bathtubs. All very clean.
The wifi was basically nonexistent unless in the kitchen. Dawn informed me after contacting her that the kitchen lights must be turned on for the modem to work.
Staying at the Coach House was memorable!
BTW, great breakfasts at both Krumbz and Bunce’s.
