The Old Rectory Hotel in Lavenham seamlessly blends elements of the original and the new. The stunning interior sparkles with timeless elegance and glamour, contrasting classical Georgian decor in the large house rooms with cutting edge contemporary design in the magnificent Coach House Suite and Stable Suite.
Situated just on the edge of this architecturally important village with its quaint medieval buildings and enjoying outstanding views of the imposing 15th Century church of St Peter and St Paul. The Old Rectory provides a private car park for guests.
Dating back to 1720, The Old Rectory has been lovingly restored over four years by its present owners Susie and Jonathan Wright and opened to guests in the summer of 2008. The grounds have been returned to their former glory including a walled vegetable garden and the house retains many of its original features. From the moment you enter the house there is a sense of serenity and a feeling of light and space in the well-proportioned rooms. The guests' hallway leads to the bright and elegant morning room, with views over the front lawn and its bridged pond and to the formal gardens at the rear of the house. From the hallway guests take the staircase with its ornate wrought iron balustrades and imposing chandelier up to the first floor guest rooms.
Providing an attention to detail that you would only expect in the finest hotel rooms, each suite at the Old Rectory is named after two famous local artists of the period, Thomas Gainsborough and John Constable whilst the De Vere room is named after John De Vere 13th Earl of Oxford who was a close confidant of Henry VII and a major contributor to the early construction of the church. The Coach House Suite and Stable Suite have also been aptly named to reflect their former glory.
