The Vicarage

We stayed here whilst visiting relatives locally and were pleasantly surprised by the excellent food and service. All staff were very welcoming and helpful

Visited with family for a celebration. Had the Sunday roast and desserts. Food was fresh, plentiful and really nicely presented. Staff were really lovely especially the young man serving on Sunday. Nice manager too who came over to our table to make sure everything was to our pleasing. The restaurant and pub area is rich in history and very charming. Fully accessible for those with disabilities. We look forward to visiting again

All round terrible! Checked in & given a room which was already occupied. Corridor to bedrooms has a funny musty smell Asked to wait in the bar while the issue was resolved where we could have our welcome drink (booked through secret escapes) Eventually given our room which was tired, dated & not very clean. Shower head in bathroom had thick black mould on it which I had to ask to be cleaned. It was cleaned although the shower tray had debris in it & hair. Neither of us showered! The mattress needs to go in the bin along with the terrible pillows! The lady who checked us in turned out to be the manager who on checkout said to my friend she’s been there two weeks and wants to know about issues so she can resolve them. She didn’t deal with our issues though she passed them on to another lady who was agency. She was very helpful & gave us a bottle of Prosecco for our trouble. Food was ok, but my partner had Gammon which was the thinnest piece of gammon I’ve ever seen it could have been thick cut bacon to be honest. Wine was nice but at £34 a bottle I expect it to be. Our friends got back to their room at 11:30pm to find they had no duvet and after eventually finding the night porter told they’d have to wait while the bar was being cleared. A quilt was found and brought to their room but with dirty marks all over it. Breakfast was chaotic, waited an age for it to arrive and it had been thrown at the plate. Sausages worst budget sausages I’ve ever seen or had the misfortune of eating or not as the case may be. This place could be really nice with a revamp and some good staff. As it is, it’s more fawlty towers just not as funny! Shout out to Fran though she was really helpful, and worked really hard to get it right.

A tired, rundown place with poor furnishings stained carpets, mould in the bathroom rusty bins genuinely really wouldn’t stay again good luck to those who do I was advised not to eat as it was overpriced undercooked and poor portions as one of the guests informed me

Very disappointing stay at the vicarage, mainly due to lack of staff even though they were friendly and helpful. Rooms very out of date, room 7 No running water from tap in sink bed & pillows awful. Decor very out of date, carpet felt very unclean iron burn mark on floor in room 6 walls very thin could hear the man coughing next room to ours, dogs barking generally noisy. I’ve seen better looking morgues! Breakfast service was slow not much choice on buffet, but menu was decent Could have used local produce, not great quality had to ask for teabags as none on the buffet making more work the staff. Definitely not worth £152 a night (which does not even include breakfast) we couldn’t wait to leave

They stay was good, however the hotel is in need of a bit of a 'face lift', it seems a while since it was last done.... also the beds could be a little more comfortable. The staff are all very friendly and can not do enough for you, (a couple of them were very new to the place).
