Stanhope Gig is located in The Old Coach House, which was the coach house to the original Manor House. The Manor House was the residence of Lord Sidmouth who was Prime Minister between the years of 1801 and 1805.

Built by Lord Sidmouth in the 19th Century as the stables and coach house to serve Upottery Manor next door (now demolished), it is constructed of local stone and flint, with Membury stone ashlar dressings under a slate roof and the windows are set into some of the original arches. The building was sympathetically converted in the late 1980's within this beautiful Grade II Listed Old Coach House formed around a paved courtyard.
