If you have tired of smart city hotel breaks with restricted meal times and limited privacy, this is the perfect solution. Here you’ll find the comfort and luxury of a boutique hotel together with the space and privacy of home (without the doorbell!!)

Everything has been designed to help you make the most of your precious time so that you can finally have that long-awaited ‘duvet day’, eat dinner in your pyjamas or sit and watch the stars in your bikini at midnight – whatever you want to find time to enjoy.

The Rectory’s six luxury holiday cottages offer a perfect combination of chic boutique boltholes for two, cottages for families and party houses for group accommodation whether for weekend breaks, midweek escapes or long, lazy vacations.

Hooch Hall, sleeps 6+4, a former Parson's enormous Cider press and fermenting house has been transformed into an opulent oasis, with fine traditional features; a wealth of oak beams, millstone flagged floors, a log burning stove in the stone fireplace, a handmade gourmet kitchen, exquisite furnishings.....
