An interesting hotel housed in a group of medieval buildings. Lots of exposed beams and narrow stairs. The staff were friendly and helpful and we were very comfortable for the one night we spent there. The food is ok. Nothing to complain about at this price point. Very good value.

Comfortable stay, but difficult parking

I had booked this hotel on the understanding that there was free parking. Hotels.com need to adjust the information about this as it was a key factor in my choosing this hotel but proved incorrect. When we arrived at 5 pm, we found a very small car park that was never going to be sufficiently large for all guests to park. It was also awkward to park in, as the notice at the entrance implied: 'reverse in - believe me, it's easier that way!'. We managed to find on-road parking very nearby where one hour was allowed and, in our case, overnight as the restriction was only till 6 pm. But restrictions began again at 8 am so we had to move the car before we had breakfast. Fortunately, the retail park nearby with B&M and Morrisons allowed 2 or 3 hours free parking and this was enough for us, but it would have been very annoying if we had been staying longer or if it had been raining. The hotel itself was pleasantly quirky and had a lovely little garden which was perfect for drinks apart from the noise of the hotel kitchen extractor fan. Breakfast was good with all the usual Full English type options. The beds were comfortable and I would have had a good night's sleep were it not for a (presumably) drunken man shouting and singing his way through the night outside our window. Convenient location for city centre restaurants and shops. Generally clean, but plenty of dust on the shower room skirting boards! Decaff tea available at breakfast which was good, but not in the room.

Tired room at the top of steep, narrow stairs with a 'bathroom' so small I couldn't fit onto the toilet. It was allegedly a "Superior King" room so one wonders about others. So called 'Acclaimed' restaurant closed for the evening. Only one set of towels between two and no staff around to ask when we returned from the town centre. In fact, nearly everything was automated from check in to check out.

A unique experience, totally in a good way. They've somehow retrofitted a 14th century building with modern amenities while maintaining its historic charm. Loved our suite! Staff was personable and professional. Great food as well! Little English flower garden in the back. Lovely place!

We stayed at the Old Vicarage for one night on our way down from Cheshire to visit family in Cornwall. We had a double room for my husband and I and our daughters shared a twin room with our dog. The service was impeccable throughout and our dog, Harvey, was treated like a VIP! Our wonderful breakfast was served by Daniel, who was friendly and professional. We chatted with the owners while checking out and it was clear that they pride themselves on the great team they have assembled to run this lovely, unique hotel. Would absolutely recommend and we'll stay again next time we are travelling south.
