Great staff, very helpful.
Good food and a fair selection of drinks at the bar.
Bathroom good, with nice shower.
Bedroom - good bed, thin pillows and unfortunately even thinner walls. My 'neighbours' phone was set to vibrate and I could hear it like it was next to the bed, plus every tik-tok he watched.

A pleasant experience. The property is looking a bit tired in places. The staff and food are excellent. I would recommend this hotel and intend on returning.

Overall it was quite good except that the room was a bit small for it to be a family room for 4 as it seemed like the 2 single beds were just placed in the room wherever there was any space.
The location was good and the gardens were well maintained.
The breakfast was excellent.

We only stayed for one night so didn't get much of a chance to use the facilities but the staff here were excellent. They provided perfect customer sevice at every single opportunity; check in, breakfast, everything. The room was spacious, well equipped and very clean. Plenty of tea, coffee and hot chocolates (not the usual 2 sachets that most hotels leave) and even had a few bottles of nice cold spring water in the fridge which was perfect on a 28°c day!
I can absolutely recommend The Old Rectory, although I'd rather keep it as a secret so there will be availability for our future stays.
The breakfast is also fantastic!

Difficult to decide what would raise this from a 3 star to 4 star hotel apart from larger rooms, bathrooms, TV screen & extra furniture because everyhthing in the hotel was beyond what we expected. Good choice in menu (although fresh filter coffee rather than the machine Americano would have been preferable), well prepared & the portions generous. We expect to go back on another occasion.
