Pros:

old listed historical building, Brilliantly interior design.
outside wedding and events area is picturesque and beautiful. just off main road so still feel safe as its not in the middle of nowhere. we had a lovely stay in the Jasmine room, which has a boiler inside the room making it lovely and cosy! with a lovely sash window letting the sunshine in the morning. bathroom standard and clean. bed was a sturdy hard mattress. clean sheets and well kept room.


thank you Lisa we will be back to stay in your property the next time we are visiting.
all the best.

Loud bar
Pros:

The room and property were fantastic but our room was directly above the bar that played loud music until 23:30 which was completely unacceptable.

Definitely recommend a stay at this lovely house
Pros:

This is not a hotel so do not expect any bar or restaurant to be available, it is a more personal service and better for it.
We prebooked a continental breakfast which was very nice but fresh baked pastries would have been preferable to the prepacked versions.
There is a lot of care and love put into this place and the staff were very welcoming and helpful to make sure we had the best experience. Our room was spotless and beautifully decorated and extra milk, pillows etc happily provided. Beware the uneven, creaking floors, but that goes with older houses and his one has plenty of character. Lots of eateries close by and pleasant gardens to sit outside. A lovely stay.

Pros:

Do not stay here! Bed was tiny, not a double and terrible mattress. Room 6 is basically the office with a tiny bed put in, doors opens right out onto reception desk so no privacy. Reception closes at 8pm so they left the room key under a flower pot outside for us to collect. Hotel left unnamed overnight. Shower tray blocked and completely floods onto the horrible bathroom carpet. Tiny tv that can only be viewed from the edge of the bed. Coffee cups that do not fit under the small coffee maker so could not be used. Dirty carpet, uneven floor and no one available to discuss with all weekend. We left at 6am as could not sleep, I am a well seasoned traveler and have never had such a bad experience, do not stay

What a hidden gem
Pros:

An amazing property, situated in the middle of build up area but you really wouldn't know it. The building and the ground are beautiful and idelic . As soon as you arrive up through the little driveway past the pebbled car park the house presents itself wonderfully. From the reception to the rooms the word quaint comes to mind. There were a few little floors but considering the house is dated 1800s but I won't tarnish the house. I had tour of the morning I left so I got to view every room and the honeymoon suite which my partner and I stayed in was due for refurbishment which I needed. Every other room were outstanding. So the question is would I return ? No only am I returning we've decided that it will be our wedding venue that's how amazing the place is.

Perfect
Pros:

The Orangery and Old Rectory Hotel is stunningly beautiful!

On arrival we were told that as it was our wedding night, they had upgraded us to The Honeymoon Suite.

Staff were extremely friendly and interested in how our day went.

This hotel doesnt have a breakfast facility, however; there was a beautiful little continental breakfast in a lobelt basket wairing for us. Pint of milk in the fridge as well as orange juice and yoghurts.

Would absolutely stay again!
Gorgeous.

Thank you for making our wedding night so special x
