Hotel was wonderful. A lot of period features still in tact. Beautiful gardens & location. Bedroom & bathroom showing sighns of wear but still in keeping with the property. Bed was very creaky but comfy. Room was clean. Staff were amazing & very helpful. Had a late afternoon snack in the conservatory & it was delicious. Breakfast was plentiful & also fresh & delicious. Bar was well stocked. Only downside was no lift so my elderly parents struggled slightly getting up & down the stairs.

I stayed here for two nights and had no issues except the toilet stopped flushing but this was sorted within minutes of my mentioning it to a staff member. The staff were all excellent and are very courteous and polite. The rectory itself is old and the rooms and decor are not modern but this just adds to the charm in my opinion. All said and done it’s a nice place to stay at a very reasonable price.
