Coach House Insurance

Could anybody who owns a coach house or is knowledgeable on them give me some advice please?
We are in the process of purchasing a 1 bedroom coach house above 3 garages. We own the freehold of the whole property including 3 garages, but two are let out on a leasehold to the neighbouring properties.
Our solicitors tell us that we will be the landlords for the 2 garages that the neighbours use and will have to provide insurance for all 3 garages.
I am struggling to find an insurance provider for the house. Direct line do not insure coach houses. All of the comparison sites do not give an option for coach houses.
The advisor for Aviva said to do a quote for a normal terraced house and this would stand, but he didn't seem to understand the situation so I do not trust this.
What providers do people use? Any advice would be appreciated.
Many thanks

If they can't help then try a local broker (not Swinton)0 -
