Beautiful and comfortable accommodation, property and staff were excellent, customer service was top notch. The booking site was disappointing though, as they didn’t send the pin to the lock box for the key ahead of arrival - if you book via this platform, please ensure they send you the virtual check in at least the day before your arrival, else book direct. We had to dial the emergency number and fortunately the staff came to our rescue very quickly. Kudos and thank you to the vicarage team!

The Vicarage is an absolute delight and far exceeded our expectations. The owners and their team have gone above and beyond with the attention to detail. Our room and bathroom were exquisitely appointed - everything from lovely waffle bathrobes to oversized lush bath towels and so much more. Another nice touch are the shared lounges - one for the three upper floor rooms and another for the ground floor rooms....with complimentary sloe gin and port for a night cap. It really is well worth a visit!

Wow, what an amazing place! So beautifully and thoughtfully renovated and decorated with a respectful and touching nod to the building's recent history. We had a lovely and very comfortable stay here. Very generous sized rooms, facilities to make tea/coffe/ basic meals, beautiful decor and bathroom, super comfortable bed. Easy to access. No breakfast served but a wide choice of friendly cafes in the immediate vicinity. Would highly recommend. Cleaning staff so friendly as well, and happy to help. What a lovely stay.

Overall, the room was lovely and clean, although there were a few scuff marks that needed touching up. There is a nearby place for breakfast recommended by the hotel that is good, but most shops and restaurants are closed in the evening making dinner difficult. If you need a stop in the area, it is well worth booking for a night.

We were very impressed with the Vicarage property and of course our beautiful room/un-suite. The comfort of the huge bed, and fantastic front windows! The magnificent bathroom & shower…our compliments to the designer. The room’s accoutrements were a pleasant addition and made us feel very comfortable, specially the Nespresso coffee maker! The guest sitting room was an added bonus and we enjoyed eating a take home meal in comfort. The Vicarage staff were very hospitable & personable.The decor of the Vicarage should be award worthy. The added bonus of the Barkers Foodstore & Restaurant being on the same property should also be rated as 5 Stars.!.
We will be back to enjoy more comfort and hospitality of the Vicarage and the surrounding community.

One of the few available accommodations in the area with actual Hotel flair and not an AirBnB. The rooms are renovated with brand new bathrooms. Everything's clean and there is free coffee, tea, milk and even port. Barker's estery for breakfast right next door is icing on the cake.

This place is absolutely lovely and I would recommend it to anyone wanting a special night away.
My only suggestion would be a note next to the Nespresso machine letting you know decaf pods were available in the sitting room as we only found these the morning after our stay and I do prefer to drink decaf in the evenings.
