The Old Rectory, Badlesmere There are two tiny churches within a kilometre of Badlesmere - 395483 and 384818. The latter is at the other end of this track, next to Badlesmere Court. Presumably the rector of both used to live here.

The room was spacious enough. The restaurant was terrible. The burger was so overcooked it was crispy and the chips were very greasy. Parking was an extra charge

The room was ok, the hotel is a bit dated and basic but it’s a reasonable price so my expectations were not high and therefore it was fine for a night.
