Luxury Retreat at The Old Rectory

Summary:
The Retreat is a delightful and self-contained luxury apartment in the west wing of The Old Rectory. Newly renovated and completely private, The Retreat has its own separate entrance, garden, and parking. Nestled amidst ancient beech trees and oaks, our charming property invites wonderful wildlife, including hedgehogs, woodpeckers, and even the occasional barn owl. Overlooking these beautiful trees and gardens, The Retreat offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

The Space:
The Retreat has been lovingly converted to the highest standards, retaining the original
exposed stone walls, black limestone floor and a sandstone fireplace. All fixtures and appliances are new, with every modern amenity to
ensure your comfort.

Completely self-contained and private, The Retreat has its own parking (space for 2 cars),
entrance, and private garden with a table and chairs for alfresco dining. You can enjoy the
views, catch the sunlight and on a clear night, even watch the stars.

Relax and unwind on a comfy sofa, with a Samsung smart TV preloaded with Netflix, Amazon, BBC iPlayer and more. Or if you prefer some TV-free time, there’s plenty of board games and selection of books to enjoy.

Your bedroom has consciously been kept simple, free from blue light devices, with natural materials, including a super comfortable hemp mattress (hypoallergenic, breathable), along with Egyptian cotton bedding, all to support sound sleep. Awaken to the stunning views of the grounds, copper beech and oak trees, with rolling hills and fields beyond. You can also enjoy these views from your lounge and dining area, and from your own private garden.

The beautiful well-equipped kitchen is newly fitted and has all the appliances, including a dishwasher, fridge, washing machine, gas hob and electric oven, microwave, pans and utensils for self-catering.

The bathroom is also new, with a bathtub, overhead shower and sink with cabinet and mirror. A range of toiletries and thoughtful extras are included for your ease. Experience the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern-day living in an extremely peaceful and natural setting.

Guest Access:
You have the whole property to yourselves. It is part of a larger house but there are no shared areas.

The Neighborhood:
