Stay at the Old Vicarage
The Old Vicarage is a beautiful old country house with very pretty rooms and furnishings. The proprietress left us very detailed information about finding the home, as well as shops and attractions in the area and recommendations for places to eat. We were also greeted with lovely Welsh cakes and Bara Briar bread, which was a lovely touch. We were happy to be able to use a grill in the back garden and found ample dishware and cookery for preparing meals. The location was quite picturesque and just a short drive to numerous attractions on the peninsula, such as King Arthur’s Stone, Three Cliffs Beach and Rossini Bay Beach. We were in town with a group of 8 for a wedding at Fairy Hill and found the house to be a good set up for our needs. However, the house is in need of attention. The cleaners have been neglecting the dusting and cobwebs and dead insects were plentiful. The showers also need a thorough scrubbing. There was a dead bird just outside the garden door. We were disappointed that the dryer has been decommissioned as it is a recalled older model and requires being replaced. The electrical is also in need of an upgrade as some of the outlets are unusable. Mold is growing in some areas. We understand that a home of this age and size is a large undertaking, but some adjustments with the maintenance would really elevate this property.
