We are down to earth and look for quality, comfort and value for money. We stayed early August. Vicarage Retreat is pleasant, well presented and well equipped. There is nothing in the advert stating its attached to the main building, a bed and breakfast. There is no sound proofing between that and the retreat. There is a single locked internal down separating the two buildings. Morning is clattering of pots,, beating of eggs, and unsurpressed conversation all be it only lasting about an hour, non the less leaving you feeling uncomfortable and not private. One occasion a washing machine was vibrating through the wall, not good! The patio area out side is surrounded by overgrown vegitation and overlooked by the bed and breakfast accommodation adjacent to the retreat. Not private and unable to relax or feel secluded outside. Inside is very well presented however the recling sofa is not connected so upright seating only. One of the most frustrating issues we had was the shower, nothing more than a watering can flow ! Not what you need to start and finish the day. Would we stay again NO ! You can get much more for your money. We only booked as our normal retreat a few miles away, cheaper with fantastic views and layout was booked up.

Lovely self contained, self catering accommodation lovely gardens. Shame they didn't sound proof the adjoining wall as noise transfer can be heard in the kitchen/living area through the adjoining door/wall. Andy was very pleasant and helpful when we arrived, however female extremely rude when we had a visitor (family) who was told to leave the premises for no reason ? I'm confused if it was down to covid as they also ran a B/B within the same property and we didn't break any government rules and our accommodation was self contained we did not mix with other visitors to the property. The females attitude was inappropriate and spoilt our stay.
