The guy in the pub / reception was pleasant and nice. Room a little dated however the bathroom as updated and nice. Downside car park small and had to park on the road. Room 16 you could hear everything, people coming through the door and walking around upstairs even coughs.

This was such a shame, having booked the property for two nights and two rooms through Expedia in Nov 2023 (6 months early to attend my daughter’s wedding), all was confirmed online, however on arrival we found the rooms had not actually been reserved, (apparently a technical/administrative error by "either" the Hotel or Expedia!!). The Hotel did accommodate us on the first night (one room upgraded to a suite) but had no space for the second night. They frantically located other rooms at another hotel for the next night which was no easy task on a bank holiday weekend (Thanks Holiday Inn albeit at a significantly higher cost to me). After a bad start, the one-night stay was lovely and we had a nice meal in the restaurant. The hotel is full of character, breakfast is good and the staff were great/helpful, (two nights would have been better and less stressful). Lesson learnt check the booking directly even when you have a confirmation through a booking site.

The room was average, the bathroom miniature but in the morning the toilet didn't flush, it was disgusting, and there was no one around to report the issue, eventually I managed to go around the back and at least tell the chief in the kitchen. Extremely disappointing for not a cheap room!!

Nice place, overpriced for what you get
We do not think this hotel is value for your money. Our room was very small with an even smaller bathroom, where the toilet was barely fitting between the wall and the shower cabinet making it toilet visits a tad uncomfortable. There was feces stains in the toilet upon arrival and hairs scattered around the bathroom. The rest of the room was fine and looked clean. The entrance door did not properly close and left a big gap between the floor and the door. Considering the rooms is right at the top of the entrance (very squeaky) stairs to all room, it was constant noise and light coming from below the door. There is zero soundproofing so forget privacy. We paid 220 GBP for 2 nights during low season, which are hotel level prices for guesthouse services. I would chose another inn/hotel for next time.

The property was a great option for us while traveling. We loved that we could stop in the pub downstairs and grab a Sunday Roast. The amount of space available for our family was great.

Charming period hotel
As a first time mini break with our newly acquired fur baby this was a brilliant find. From the added extras in the room to the breakfast sausage you all went above and beyond to make this a great experience for us. Your hotel has all the character of a property of its age with plenty of charm in the rooms behind the black doors, including the bar, snug, the library and additional breakfast room. The hospitality from you and your staff was faultless. We will be back.

We stayed at the Old Vicarage for one night due to attending a friends wedding locally. Upon arrival, we met Peter who was lovely. He brought us some coffee and made us feel right at home. We learned a bit about Peter’s background and the history of the building, which was really interesting. We needed to check in and change into our wedding wear, but we were earlier than usual check-in time. This was not an issue and they were happy to help get a room ready so we could change and head off on time. The room was lovely with beautiful decor, exposed wooden beams, modern bathroom fittings and you get a real feel for the history and importance of the building. The bed was comfy and we slept well. In the morning, we headed down for breakfast and we’re greeted by Candida and the food was lovely. We loved our stay and I would highly recommend.
