This wee stay was just what I needed. From agreeing to an early check in…to the best porridge I’ve had in years, it was just lovely. Granted, it is an old building, but it’s full of character, and while perhaps the water pressure isn’t as enthusiastic as some may like, there’s no rush, it’s easy to relax at The Old Rectory.

Lovely owner, very accommodating. Room was very spacious and homely. Breakfast was delicious. Only downside, water pressure in the shower was very low and had to run shower for a few minutes before the water warmed up. Presumably due to the town mains water pressure and out of the owners control. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Stayed here overnight, on first impression the room was very shabby, bedding very thin and stained headboards. The bathroom had a funny smell and shower pressure poor, all needs redecorating. Breakfast however was very good, nice quality sausage and bacon, had to ask for fruit juice though. The property is a short walk into the town, we had a nice meal at The Place on the high street. Check in time also a bit late.

Lovely old house on the outskirts of town. Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was clean and comfortable. Wifi signal was very good. There was free on-street parking. Unlike so many places that pay lip service to vegans, the vegan breakfast was excellent and coffee was good!

Value for Money
For the cost, it is value for money. The bed was very comfortable and the room was spacious. Breakfast was a little confusing with most things needing to be asked for (we understand the reasons, to save on wastage, but that wasn't made clear on the menu). The portions for breakfast were huge and it was good quality food. We thought the place could do with some TLC and a good dust in higher places, but overall a good stop over and worth the money we paid.
