Truly enjoyed my stay. I wanted something with a little character and not a typical hotel. Honestly booked just thinking it was an older Inn and didn't realize until later it was a bed and breakfast. I thought the room was a pretty decent price so was Pleasantly suprised I got a made to order breakfast with my room. The Proprietor is top notch when you need anything and is always happy to help. If you're ok with an older place with some character then I would highly recommend this place.

Very pleasant inn keeper. He was helpful and friendly. The breakfast choices were perfect whether you wanted a meal breakfast or something light. Rooms were clean. I worried about the stairs as I have difficulty climbing some stairs and these were not taxing on my knees, Appreciate the stay at The Old Rectory.

Greeted promptly and shown straight to my room. A very spacious room with the biggest bed I’ve ever slept in with adequate en-suite facilities. The only minor problem was the monsoon shower not working but the other shower was perfectly. A lovely coffee table. Breakfast in the morning had a reasonable menu and the host couldn’t have done more to make sure I had everything i needed. Very tasty scrambled egg on toast .
