'We're about bringing warmth and great food to this wonderful spot': Historic pub near Rugby opens doors again

The Olde Coach House Inn at Ashby St Ledgers is now run by The Freespirit pub company.

Mark Higgs, owner and director, said it will be the biggest site opening to date for him and his team.

They have worked on fresh redesign to get the site open before December, with planned pop-up events to get to know local residents and guests.

The Olde Coach House Inn is a 16-bedroom property equipped with an extensive dining area and traditional bar space.

Sylwia, the new general manager, said: “I’m thrilled to take on this exciting role at The Olde Coach House.

“We're all about bringing warmth, great food, and a real sense of community to this wonderful spot in the countryside.”

She has been with Freespirit pubs for three years.

"When I was asked to come on board with the new project, I felt super excited and nervous at the same time,” Sylwia added.

"I’ve always looked for new goals and challenges to make life more interesting. I believe that with the local support, we can make the coach house a raging success.”
