Adrian and Rosemary were so welcoming it was just like staying with friends, especially when they introduce you on first name terms to the other guests over breakfast and the conversation just flows. The rectory is full of character and very comfortable, and with a lovely relaxing garden and the wonderful home cooked food based on local produce our whole... More

The Old Rectory of St James was so much better than I ever imagined... This quintessential olde English house is set in a beatiful, landscaped garden, yet only a couple of miles from The International Centre (conference centre). The rooms are large and full of character, the bed was super-comfortable and the food..... well, I could write a whole review... More

Well we scored on all points! We were made very welcome on our arrival by Rosemary and Adrian, to their beautiful home and afternoon tea... More

My husband and I have just enjoyed a wonderful weekend at the Old Rectory, with welcoming hosts, delicious food, and a well appointed and spotless bedroom. It was bitterly cold so our hosts had already provided extra heating and an electric blanket as our room was very large with 2 big windows - how thoughtful. Despite my current weight loss... More
