We stayed at The Old Rectory for 2 nights and over the weekend. It is ideally located for visiting Stratford - Upon - Avon and Warwick. We stayed in the Shaespeare Suite and the 4 poster bed not only looked great but was also very comfortable. The spa bath was also very relaxing. The building is full of character due to its age including sloping floors and many original features. The full English breakfast over the weekend was good and they were happy to accommodate our requests. The honesty bar was great and we enjoyed a drink each evening on our return from our days out.
Various comments have been made about this being more a B & B than a Hotel. Although we would agree with this (as there are no other meals offered) we would also go back without hesitation. It was very clean, the location great and both Christine and Chris were both very friendly and helpful hosts.

Stayed here for a 2 night break. Really enjoyed it. Room lovely - very quaint. Liked that it had a seating area. Breakfast good. Really friendly owners.

Chris and Christine are great hosts and made us feel very welcome. It's more a B&B than a hotel but the place is brimming with character and charm as befits it's age and history. We're planning to go back next summer.

I stayed at the Old Rectory whilst on business in nearby Warwick and found it absolutely delightful. It is very much a B & B, with no evening meals available, but there is a comfortable lounge with a selection of books and an 'honesty bar'. How often do you find that?

The Old Rectory is run by Christine and Chris who are friendly, welcoming and cannot do enough to help.

I stayed in the Shakespear Suite, which has a massive and comfy 4 poster bed, tasteful period furniture and a large bathroom with spa bath and shower. The room was warm, spotlessly clean, had the usual tea & coffee facilities, free wi-fi, which worked well, and TV, although small and with only with the basic 5 channels.

The location is great in as much as it is seconds from the main road between Warwick and Stratford, but in the quiet, secluded and totally unspoilt hamlet of Sherbourne. I didn't notice any noise from the main road although, depending on the room, it could be an issue in summer with windows open.

The only down-side to the location is that Sherbourne has no pubs or restaurants, the nearest being in nearby Barford, where the Granville Arms does superb meals. This is an easy and safe 20 minutes walk in daylight but a bit tricky after dark.

Breakfast is continental only, unless you pay extra and book in advance, but you get a good selection of cerials, toast, fruit salads, yogurts, cheeses and cold meats. If you've eaten in the Granville the night before that's all you're likely to want!

The prices are perhaps a bit on the high side, given the limited facilities, but this is an expensive part of the country and, for someone travelling on expenses (but with a set budget) I certainly didn't feel cheated and have paid similar amounts in the area for a far lower standard of accommodation and service.

I can appreciate that the Old Rectory is not everyone's cup of tea, but I would certainly stay here again and would thoroughly recommend it for the lone business traveller who just wants a quiet and relaxing night's stay, provided they are willing to go out for their evening meal. It would also be great in the summer for couples who want to visit Warwick or Stratford and are happy to take a stroll out for a meal and drinks in the evening.
