They and Stephen Hiseman, of Morzine, France, are also charged with fraud by abuse of position.
The offences are alleged to have taken place between 2006 and 2011.
Mr Kenny, 57, of Old Hunt Stables, Ms Coates, 44, of West Street, and Mr Hiseman, 57, are due to appear before Westminster magistrates in London on 23 April.
