I do like a kettle in the room even though you could go down into the kitchen to make one but missed it in the morning when I woke up. TV was a bit intermittent but my partner managed to get it into a position where it stayed on most of the time. No hairdryer so you need to bring one if needed.

A very quirky very old building over five hundred years old with beams every were so watch your head as they are very low. Shower is awkward as you cannot stand up and there is no shower curtain so you have to sit in the bath to shower. Hosts are very good the lady lives in the building so if you wanted something she is there to ask a question..

Literally the only thing is that the shower isn't accessible for anyone over about 5'4" - but the bath is, and the building is old, so we can forgive it.

Absolutely perfect stay. Brilliant location, excellent hosts, building is SPECTACULAR. One of the best stays we've ever had and we are already looking for reasons to return.

Leaving!

What a place this is. Shower is a bit tricky to get into due to it being a period property, but this isn't a negative, its part of the experience. Jane and her mum were brilliant. Thanks for having me!

Dot met and hosted us with care and a good sense of humour We thoroughly enjoyed her stories and her generosity with her time and home. Her home is filled with special things and the building beautifully ancient and quirky The port was a real night cap after a long day's cycling and much appreciated We had a great time thanks

Check out time advertised as 11am, this was the main reason we booked due to an early morning dawn survey. The host kicked us out at 10

Lovely historied building. The staff, a mother daughter duo, were incredibly welcoming and even gave a brief overview of the history of the building. The room was lovely.

No blinds in the small window but a minor inconvenience. As the rooms were very clean and comfortable.

It was interesting. The family were welcoming and friendly. I would stay there again

Nothing whatsoever.

Wonderful area and beautiful building. Breakfast was a simple but delicious continental with fresh fruit salad. I'd have liked to spend more time chatting with Jane's mother who was an absolute delight, sadly only got to briefly say hi to Jane.

Bed was not comfortable and the shower was disappointing.

tiny bath & shower that you couldn’t stand up in. no remote control for tv.

charming listed building, excellent host. Simple breakfast. very clean and rustic

Stayed in May 2023

Bath had shower but no curtain and you couldn't stand up in the bath. Couldn't find remote for tv. Biggest gripe of all, you could only lock your room from the inside so we had to take all our valuables with us when we went out.

Location and friendly staff

Breakfast was a do it yourself arrangement which is fine except it was not clear where everything was. TV had no remote and door could be bolted from inside but not lockable when you went out

17th century house with many original features and lovely host

Nothing to dislike

Lovely old house, owned by the lovely Dot. Very Quirky, but comfortable in a great rural location. Fantastic pub 2 minutes walk away.

it was a bit difficult to shower as it was over the bath which was in the eaves , so we couldn’t stand up. However, we weren’t concerned as the house was over 600 years old and so full of character, that the inability to shower properly was offset by the amazing building

I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast - cereal, fresh fruit, yogurt and toast with jam and marmalade The location was in the countryside but only 15 minutes from the NEC.

We can't think of anything really, though the signage for The Old Rectory was difficult to spot, particularly as it was twilight when we arrived. Perhaps some better lighting at the entrance especially while it gets dark early!

Loved the querkiness of the property. Were welcomed and treated like friends. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt at home.
