The Coach House, Craven Arms

The Coach House10 bedrooms, Sleeps 18 + 1 Baby.

Built around 1780, this detached former coach house has the scale and spread that make big family gatherings easier, with room for 18 across 10 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. Two separate sitting rooms help a mixed-age group avoid feeling on top of one another, one with a wood burner and the other with an open fire, while the dining room and kitchen/dining room give you proper space for long meals together. Split over three floors, it suits reunions and celebrations where people want to gather as a whole but still peel off into quieter corners.

The bedroom mix is practical for a crowd, with doubles, twins and a ground-floor single with en-suite shower. There are also several separate toilets, plus baths and shower rooms spread across the upper floors, which matters in a house of this size. The Aga-led kitchen and utility room suggest a stay built around cooking for a group, and the large garden with terrace and barbecue adds another place to congregate. Craven Arms station and a pub are both within 1 mile.
