Overview

Tucked on the edge of Lacock, one of England’s prettiest villages, The Rectory is the kind of place that feels like a warm hug. Surrounded by six acres of private gardens and meadows providing spectacular views from all of the rooms, this beautifully restored Victorian rectory offers a peaceful place to slow down and reconnect – with nature, with friends, or simply with yourself.

The house itself is full of character – all high ceilings, big windows and soft, calming colours. There are just a handful of guest rooms, each one carefully considered with crisp linens, comfy beds and countryside views. Breakfasts are generous and home-cooked thick sizzling sausages, fresh eggs form the local farm collected daily, fresh fruit and proper coffee to set you up for the day.

If you’d rather self-cater, two converted cottages – once the old stables – offer stylish, easy-going space for couples, families or small groups. With a private garden and the option to link them for larger stays, they’re ideal for a weekend away or longer summer break.

Lacock is right on your doorstep – an unspoilt medieval village owned and maintained by the National Trust with cosy pubs and National Trust charm. You’re also perfectly placed for exploring Castle Combe, Bath, Bowood, Longleat and the wider Wiltshire countryside.

Within 5 minutes walk from the pretty historic village of Lacock, this place is a gem. The rectory has been tastefully restored, and everything feels new and fresh. Everything was spotless. Breakfast was generous. The bed was comfortable, and our room had a view out over the beautiful garden. However the best part of our stay was not the property, but the hosts Helen and Wyatt. There were helpful and friendly and went way above and beyond expectation. Nothing was too much trouble. We would not hesitate to return.

Returning for a 2nd time we knew we could expect a warm welcome from Helen and Wyatt,but the blazing log burner in your Drawing Room was such a lovely surprise on a freezing cold afternoon!! As always the extremely comfortable luxurious accommodation was spotless and the breakfasts delicious. Our only regret was having to leave after only two nights this time; we'll be back we love it here! Thank you

Tom & LaneyC

Such a beautiful property, fabulous views. Only a few minutes from Lacock amenities. The hosts are a really friendly couple. The room was spotless and the shower was so relaxing with excellent water pressure. Breakfast options were fab and so tasty.... Would definitely recommend a stay at the Rectory

The place is amazing, the owners are very friendly. It's wonderful to be able to stay in a place with so much charm. The location is unbeatable, every detail is very carefully taken care of. The breakfast was unbeatable. I hope I can come back soon and stay longer.
