Description

It sleeps 4+2: one double bedroom, one twin bedroom (can be made up as double) and a fully sprung double sofa bed. Both bedrooms have en suite bathrooms with shower.

The Coach House overlooks St. Peter's Church, and has an idyllic and uninterrupted view across the valley. The village lies at the confluence of the rivers Frome and Avon, and has wonderful views and walks across woods and valleys on the edge of the Cotswolds.

A 'boutique' home, Ivythorpe Coach House provides the highest level of amenities, comfort and style, including Cowshed products from the nearby Babington House, underfloor heating, and floor to ceiling glass doors to the garden.

Response from the owner Hi Chantel, You booked through Airbnb. They looked into your complaints, as did I, about the ‘issues’ you perceived, and found them to be groundless. So I’m surprised that you persist in posting about the groundkess issues on another site! The guests who stayed immediately before and after you found no faults. I’ve tried to resolve your concerns in a fair and reasonable manner. We are very proud of our many happy guests and excellent review ratings .
