Pleasing manor-house style property. Lovely and extensive grounds. The room (a suite) was large and well-appointed, with triple aspect views over carpark to the front and gardens to side and rear. When you book you are warned no soaps provided, so we brought our own, as well as towels and pillow, for our own comfort. Didn't eat at hotel so cannot comment. Hosts - interesting.

Cozy place with a homey atmosphere. We’ve been going there for about a year, as it’s a lovely farm. It feels like a home away from home 💚

The rectory farm is a lovely place to stay, very quiet and welcoming. We checked in after 4pm and was upgraded free of charge. However, the hot water wasn’t working properly so we had to change rooms. The room was slightly bigger but a smaller bed which was fine too. (But I did prefer the other big bed). Set on lovely grounds. It would be nice if they had more toiletries available in the room. Other than that had a great stay and would definitely recommend.
