If you bringing a dog please see below:

We want all our guests and their dogs to enjoy The Coach House.  We kindly ask that you carefully read and follow a few rules to help to ensure that this is the case.
PLEASE….
Do not leave your dog unattended in The Coach House at any time.  
PLEASE….
Do not let your dog inside The Coach House if it is wet, sandy or dirty.  Please clean and dry your dog before allowing it into the property.  We have provided a hose for this purpose (although you do need to bring your own dog towels please).  Please do not use the bath towels to dry your dog.
PLEASE….
Bring your own dog bed.  We ask that dogs do not go on any of the furniture and that they do not go downstairs, please use the upstairs stable door.  This is very important as some of our guests are allergic to dog hair.  We have provided a stair gate to make it easier for you in case they are tempted.
PLEASE….
Clear up any dog mess from the gardens/woods.  There are children living and visiting Lower Coombe Royal who enjoy playing care free in the garden.  A dog poo littered garden really isn’t pleasant for the person mowing the lawn either!!  We have provided bags and a small bin outside for dog mess.
PLEASE...                                                                                                                                            Keep your dog on a lead AT ALL TIMES.

THANK YOU….
For helping to keep the Coach House and garden clean for all future guests to enjoy.

Lower Coombe Royal is on the edge of the market town of Kingsbridge, a lively community with a range of local amenities two minutes by car and ten minutes by foot. It offers restaurants, cafes, delis, boutique clothes shops, a local fishmongers, butchers and grocers. A local farm market is held every fortnight. Lower Coombe Royal is set in 8 acres of historic gardens and woodlands; there is children's play area with trampoline and a football pitch. Our family moved to live at Lower Coombe Royal 3 years ago. I grew up in Devon and had longed to return. Since then we have been very busy renovating the house, gardening, building Glamping Lodges and enjoying the beaches and surrounding countryside. It really is a magical place to live. On site we have the Garden Rooms (a one bed apartment in the lower ground floor of the main house), The Loft (a one bed apartment above our garage). There is a 3 bedroom cottage called the Coach House which sleeps 6 people.At times the main house may also be available to rent out. New for Summer 2020 we have 3 Glamping Lodges. Our lodges are nestled in the sides of a valley in our private estate. Each Safari Lodge has been considerately positioned to offer stunning, private views of the treetops and beyond into the valley. Our lodges offer a comfortable, private sanctuary for 6 guests within three bedrooms and include a log burner, well-equipped kitchen, bathroom, lounge & wood fired hot tub. We hope to be able to welcome you to Lower Coombe Royal soon. Jules and Paul Williams
