On a rather dreary afternoon it was lovely to be greeted by Mary with home-made cake containing angelica from the garden and a cup of tea. The room was wonderfully comfortable – my husband was even moved to comment on the very fine Egyptian cotton sheets – and we enjoyed having two bathrooms at our disposal, one a wet room... More

We stayed for one night, booking last minute. The house is beautiful, and garden stunning. Our room was lovely and the breakfast delicious. It is generally brilliant. The place and stay can't be faulted, great owner, great house, yummy breakfast. Would highly recommend.

This is, as the name states, an old rectory. Hence the rooms are all large and airy, all beautifully decorated in an understated way. The walled garden at the back is a delight. Seating areas are dotted around the garden in the midst of wonderful flower beds.... bluebells, tulips, etc. I could easily spend a day sitting in the garden... More

A fairly random selection as I needed somewhere in Hastings for work - what a find! Lovely rooms, real milk, home-made shortbread, great welcome and service - stuff you hope you might get in 'boutique' hotel but, these days, rarely find. Highly recommended.

We would like to thank Shaun,Tracy Ann and all the staff who worked so hard to make our daughter and son in laws wedding such a special day.Helen and Tim were delighted how you organised the occasion.We recommend this venue for small weddings. We found the B&B very comfortable and the breakfast was excellent.

Stayed for just one night last Saturday and had a great stay in the Crown room which is wonderfully comfortable and uniquely decorated. Shaun and Mary made us really welcome throughout our visit. Fabulous breakfast choice..a different class to most B&B's. Can't recommend highly enough and The Old Rectory is a short 10 minute walk to Hastings Old Town with... More

What can I say, with mypartner we stayed in the old rectory for two nights and I have to say it was the best I've stayed in as far as the UK concerned. It was fabulous and so was Sean may our stay all the better for his banter and hospitality. Breakfast was great with much more choice than you... More

Our stay at the Old Rectory started by deciding to take a chance and arrive via an unusual route. We took the West Hill Funicular up to the nature reserve parkland on the hill above All Saints church. From there, you can take a path leading down the hill eventually bringing you out next to the top of the All... More

As there were 3 of us we booked the All Saints suite . This comprises a very spacious main bedroom, (with an almost 'empty' feel to it), a more cosy 2nd room, a large bathroom and a small wc/ wet room. The B&B is clean through out and the beds are comfortable, although the very large bed in the main... More
