Guests say

Old Chapel in Levens is a charming, well-located cottage ideal for exploring the South Lakes and nearby Kendal. Guests consistently praise its cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and proximity to local amenities such as a well-stocked shop and an excellent pub. The property is well-equipped for short stays, though some mention compact bedrooms, occasional dampness, and limited kitchen utensils. Access and parking can be tight for larger vehicles, and some guests noted noise from the upstairs property. Overall, it offers a comfortable and convenient base for a relaxing break in a picturesque village setting.

The majority of guests found the property very clean and fresh, with several specifically highlighting its cleanliness. Only a couple of reviews mentioned a slight fusty or damp odour in one bedroom, but this did not detract significantly from the overall impression.

The location is highly praised for its convenience to Kendal, Windermere, and the South Lakes, as well as the peaceful village setting with good local amenities. Guests appreciated the quiet surroundings and easy access to local attractions.

Guests generally found the cottage comfortable and homely, with positive comments about the beds and living space. Some noted the bedrooms are compact and occasional noise from the upstairs property, but most found it suitable for couples or small families.

The cottage is well-equipped for short stays, with essentials like towels, washing up liquid, and dishwasher tablets provided. Some guests noted a lack of certain kitchen items (e.g., frying pan, teapot, small saucepan) and suggested more hangers or bedside tables. Parking is tight for larger cars.

A few guests mentioned thoughtful touches such as an Easter card and mini eggs, but most noted the absence of a welcome pack or basic provisions like tea, milk, or extra toilet rolls. Please note that gifts or welcome packs are not guaranteed.

    No sound insulation in the place and you can hear absolutely everything. Maybe should actually state that there is an apartment above you. The actual area is beautiful and plenty of places to visit.
