The staff could not of been more helpful. Lovely room.

John Australia

Lynne was very friendly, the room was a good size, the bed was incredibly comfortable, the breakfast was very good and good value.

Rudi United Kingdom

The staff are wonderful and offered a very warm welcome as soon as I walked in the door. The room was great with a very comfortable bed. The shower was strong and hot. The dinner menu was limited, but the pizza was great. Breakfast was very good with great sausages. I would love to stay in the hotel again.

Dwight United Kingdom

Very pleasant proprietress, who welcomed us warmly and put our muddy boots to dry by the fire. Nice room with everything we needed.

Ian United Kingdom

Really friendly and welcoming. Accommodated us with a young baby. Helped with keeping food warm and getting a cot in the room. Lovely property, newly refurbished. Clean and warm. :)

Felicity United Kingdom

Incredibly friendly lady who went above and beyond!! Also those towels 😍

Megan United Kingdom

Bed was very comfy. Room was very spacious as was the bathroom.

Miriam United Kingdom

Staff very friendly and the owner has a very cute dog. The beds were comfortable and the room was modern and welcoming. Fan was provided for the hot weather. Didn't drink in the pub below as it was a short stay but it's a very nice little building. Bus routes were straight forward and close to our stay. I would like to return.

Emily United Kingdom

Lynne, the landlady was really friendly, chatty and helpful, makes a great breakfast. Luke was also really attentive and friendly. You are made to feel very welcome here. Room, bar and restaurant were all well kept, freshly modernised and with nice attractive designs. Didn't use the garden, but is newly kitted out with covered and heated areas.

Michael United Kingdom

Everything about the Coachmakers Arms was absolutely bang on what we hoped for after another day of walking the Thames. Such a warm welcome from Lynne, her staff, and her dog! The Coachmakers is a beautiful old village pub with cosy rooms and a very 'home from home' atmosphere. Food was excellent at both supper, and breakfast before our departure. We left a jacket behind by mistake and Lynne posted to us so promptly that it almost beat us home!

The Coachmakers Arms is a 17th Century building that was originally two cottages adjoined to a sweet shop. Charlie's Sweet Shop was acquired and added much later, providing an additional area to the pub and three B&B rooms. The pub is full of character and traditional pub charm with a lovely ambience and large courtyard garden with some cover and heaters.

Property info

The combination of comfortable sofas, lounge chairs and tables gives everyone the opportunity to enjoy visiting The Coachmakers Arms to relax or eat from our delicious menu. We are not a gastro pub, but serve the best pizzas you can imagine from our stone-bake oven alongside a selection of sharing dishes to enjoy with a glass of your favourite tipple. The sun trap garden is a beautiful space which can be enjoyed whatever the weather, with cover and heating to keep you warm and dry.

The Coachmakers Arms is situated in the centre of the bustling riverside town of Wallingford and within easy reach of the Thames Path, shops and amenities.
