About this property

The Coach House is situated on the A38 halfway between Gloucester and Tewkesbury, and about 5 miles west of Cheltenham. It provides an ideal base for exploring the Cotswolds, The Forest of Dean, or even the Wye Valley and beyond to the Welsh hills.

The barn has been very tastefully converted to provide an open plan living room/dining area and kitchen, with a galleried bedroom above. There is a shower room with basin and WC. It provides very comfortable accommodation for a couple, though downstairs there is a sofa bed if required.

The Leigh is an ancient village in the Severn Vale, and although The Coach House is on the main road, just on the opposite side of the road is a walk through the village - a most peaceful experience.
You will note some of the reviews mention traffic noise from the main road which can get busy especially during rush hour - please bear this in mind!
The Swan is a pub/restaurant a mile away, and other pubs/restaurants nearby include The New Dawn Inn on the A38 towards Gloucester, and The Red Lion, situated on the banks of the River Severn.

A property for 1 or 2 nights but not longer as facilites are limited.

Owner on hand to deal with immediate problem of lack of cutlery , tea towels, washing up drainer. No tea pot, toast rack, and kitchen saucepans small and limited size. Fire alarm very sensitive, and the toast not even burnt! No kitchen window or extractor. Microwave rusty/dirty and net curtains on front window could do with a wash. No shelves or draws to put clothes in although the hanging space was adequate. No bed side tables, and only one bed side light which was broken. The chairs to watch tv not comfortable, and low. The bed also low, and not for people with mobility /knee problems. There was a leak in the roof but the owner repaired that immediately. I thought it very odd that sheets were provided but not towels.

Lovely comfortable annexe.

This property was nicer than we expected-the photos don't do it justice. It's spacious and warm. We had enough kitchen kit to prepare simple meals. The bed was quite comfortable. Convenient parking. The only downside was the considerable road noise early morning but as we are early risers it didn't trouble us. We didn't meet the owner.

Very cozy

A well appointed property, everything you need for a break. Road a little noisy around the morning rush hour and care needed when exiting but all in all, a very pleasant experience.

Charming cottage, good location

The house is a lovely little cottage on the road between Tewkesbury and Gloucester, which is a great location for day trips to the Cotswolds, Forest of Dean, Wye Valley and lots more. We spent every day out of the house in a different place and we loved it. The house itself is a tastefully furnished old coach house/stable done in a nice open plan style. It's small but surprisingly spacious and is the perfect size for a couple. The kitchen has got lots of utensils/pans etc and it's a pleasure to cook in. The shower is also excellent. There are a few minor issues like the sound of the road (quite loud), a too small tap on the kitchen sink and the fact it got quite hot at night (in August mind you) but hardly worth worrying about. Chris is a lovely host and was very welcoming. Thanks for a lovely stay!
