Thank you so much for your prompt and lovely review. We hope you do return again, you were lovely guests. Thank you for booking with us. Kind regards, Yonni and Marnie
Sympathetically restored quirky chapel in a perfect location. Really well stocked kitchen. Very comfortable beds with plenty of storage in the bedrooms and lots of electric sockets everywhere.The chapel was spotlessly clean throughout.
Had a wonderful time catching up with family. We had 10 adults in the property quite comfortably. We spent a lot of time in the garden. It felt very private and far enough away from neighbours for us not to worry about 10 chatty adults catching up. Host was very helpful with lots of information.Thank you

Thank you too Jan for booking with us and thank you for a lovely review. Your family were lovely and respectful to both the chapel and neighbours. We are glad you had the time together in our chapel and hope you come back again soon. Thanks again, Yonni and Marnie
The host Marnie could not have been more welcoming or helpful catering to our individual needs. The property was as described with a combined wow as each guest arrived. Entry was easy and the venue was very welcoming upon arrival. Each bedroom was individual and excellently appointed. The kitchen caters for a huge number of people meaning there is plenty of cups glass plates and cutlery so no mad panics between meal. Although the weather was autumnal we appreciated the views of the garden and of the trees along the river. There is plenty of space for visitors to spread out or gather together. It has just the right touch between homely and holiday house meaning you instantly felt at home and relaxed.

Thank you so much Ann, for such a fantastic review. We are so glad you each had the 'wow' factor, that makes us very proud! We hope you come back again soon; you were fabulous guests and you have been a pleasure to communicate with. Thank you so much, Yonni and Marnie
I stayed at the Chapel with my 3 grown up sons, their partners, my 3 years old granddaughter and my little dog. We came to visit friends that live in the village and the Chapel was in the perfect position. It is a lovely building that has everything you need, the master bedroom has the added bonus of the balcony to have your tea or wine on which was lovely. We loved all the wood and the amazing staircase. The only bad thing was the organ not working because my granddaughter wanted to play it but at the same time that may have been a blessing!! Thank you Marnie for sharing your amazing property.

Thank you so much Sarah, what a beautiful review! We are so glad you got to make use of the balcony and that the chapel has everything you needed. Yes, we have mixed feelings too about the organ. Hope it will soon be fixed. Thanks so much for booking with us and for taking such lovely photos! Kind regards, Yonni and Marnie
We had a great stay in this unique property. On entering our breathe was taken away by the beautiful mezzanine and amazing Christmas tree!. The house was clean and warm and very welcoming.We were 9 adults and the house was great for us. Bedrooms were spacious, with enough bathrooms between us,. Lounge area was great and we spent time together playing games and watching films here. The kitchen table was a tight squeeze for 9, but we managed, and if you didn't want to sit together there was additional space at the kitchen breakfast bar and another table seating 4 in the lounge area. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of plates and dishes and cutlery which was appreciated. There were also plenty of sundries like washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, kitchen and toilet rolls too.We stayed in winter so didn't use the garden, but it looked lovely and the balcony areas would be great in Summer with the sound of the river at the back of the house.There was ample parking for 4 cars with no issues.The host was excellent, with great communication prior to and during our stay.I would definitely recommend this property.

Wow, thank you so much for such a thorough review. The feedback is fabulous and informative and gives a clear picture for future guests. We know reviews take time to complete and so we are really appreciative. We're also appreciative of lovely guests, of which you and your family definitely were. Thank you so much. We hope you come back one day, maybe in the warm, dry weather when the hanging baskets are in full bloom and the river is a gentle trickle. Thanks again. Kind regards, Yonni and Marnie
