The Coach House that dates back to 1862, which was originally a part of the rectory, retains some of its historical features. The entry point for coaches and horses can still be observed through a sizeable stone lintel at the entrance. Restoration work was carried out in 2008 and the building has since been transformed into a self-contained, two-bedroom cottage that offers self-catering facilities, a hot tub, and an attractive pergola. The renovation has been carried out with great care and attention to retain the original character of the building. In the spacious living and dining area, there are two leather couches and Fairtrade acacia furniture. Entertainment options include a TV with Freesat channels, DVD and video players, a CD player, and a PlayStation 1. Additionally, guests will find a variety of games, books, videos, CDs, and DVDs to choose from, as well as plenty of tourism information.
