Guest review
- Review from...: Tripadvisor: A wonderful venue for a very special birthday get together A very welly furnished house with comfortable beds and 4 bathrooms. The house is ideal for a party of friends get together as it stands well away from other properties and has everything you could need including 2 dishwashers, 3 fridges, 2 log burners and every cooking utensil you could ever want. The stove took a bit of mastering but was soon conquered!. The hot tub, sauna, table tennis table and table football were well used even though it was a cold January visit too. All the table decorations shown were brought in by us for a 'milestone' birthday celebration and we had a caterer in (Christine's Catering) did a fabulous job of providing a delicious meal and washed up afterwards!. We can highly recommend The Old Vicarage - we had a marvellous time! Mark Y - Jan 2024
