“Best in Stratford”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2011
2
people found this review helpful

We have been coming to The Old Rectory for over ten years and every year we have a wonderful stay. Breakfasts are amazing and the rooms are gracious, clean and comfortable. We book the carriage house which offers extra privacy as well as a lofted sitting room which can connect with the loft in the room next door. This is an ideal situation for two couples who want to hang out after a play for some wine and conversation. Best of all, Kim and Kevin are ideal hosts - warm, charming, and very hospitable. We've tried a few other B and B's in the area and nothing comes close to the Old Rectory.

“Why stay anywhere else?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011

person found this review helpful

It astounds me that anyone who comes to Stratford stays anywhere else. The food is off-the-charts and the accommodations are uber-comfortable. No detail is overlooked. And best of all, Kim and Kevin are beyond hospitable. They treat you like family. Thanks Kim and Kevin for a great vacation year-in and year-out!

“The Old Rectory Never Disappoints”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

Beautiful rooms, delicious food, kind and gracious hosts -- The Old Rectory provides everything you need for a great stay in Stratford. My husband and I stayed in one of the coach house suites, which provided us with an upstairs loft to watch TV, read, and relax, as well as the first flloor bedroom and bathroom, and a rear patio area for private, quiet outdoor time. Kim and Kevin have found their niche in life -- their talents abound, and they share them with their guests. Even their young son provides a warm welcome when he visits with you in the sitting room in the main house or sees you at breakfast. In a quick three block walk, you are in the heart of the shopping and dining area of Stratford, three blocks more and you arrive at the Avon Theatre, or head the opposite direction, and in about seven blocks you arrive at the Festival Theatre. The Old Rectory places you in easy walking distance from all of the attractions while giving you a lovely home away from home. We will be back!

Room Tip: The coach house suites provide additional space and privacy.

“Great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

We had a fantastic time at the Old Rectory B&B. We had room 1 and it was nice and cozy. The breakfast was fantastic and we stuffed our faces! The location was unbelievable and we could walk everywhere from the B&B.

“Like coming home again”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

Although its been a while since we had the opportunity to return to The Old Rectory B&B we were welcomed "back home" as though we had never left. The hospitality offered by Kim & Kevin Gormley is like no where else we have been. One time we traveled by train and after we left Kim ordered a cab to return a forgotten item to us at the train station. This trip Kevin traveled our route out of town to tell us how best to avoid street construction. They will go the extra mile to make your stay pleasant and the breakfasts and gourmet dinners that Kevin makes with Kim's help are out of this world. The home itself is lovely, well-cared for and shows their decorating talents with special family-related items everywhere. We would not stay anywhere else in the Stratford area. Thanks again, Kim and Kevin.

Room Tip: They are all good; a room for all tastes depending on the type you are looking for. My husband and...
