OLD chapel knowle overview
OLD chapel is one of those real gems that cannot be missed when considering your holiday. Lovingly converted from an original Chapel, it has a wealth of original features and tremendous charm. This includes the magnificent conversion of the pulpit into a quality wooden staircase, original and new stain glass feature windows, double volume beamed ceilings and even some of the original pews. The owner of this home has taken great care to collect sympathetic articles to enhance the character and warmth of this home.
living areas
As you enter the OLD chapel knowle through the large original double church doors, you are immediately greeted by the cavernous space and height of this property.
Down the passage you enter the enormous double lounge on two levels, where there is seating easily catering for large groups, and a sofa bed. Light enters the room from both sides, transmitted through spectacular stain glass panes. Wood panelling, fascinating artifacts and feature walls complete the space.
The lounge has a games area, which contains a scaled down snooker/pool table for your enjoyment. Beyond the games area you enter a further living area, originally used by the Sunday school, and swathed in light. This double volume space contains the large wooden dining area, easily seating 8 as well as further living space and seating. To warm yourself, over a glass of red wine and a good book, is the electric feature fireplace.
kitchen
From the second lounge/dining area enter the kitchen, with modern appliances and real wood surfaces, with electric 4-plate hob, fitted oven, microwave, fitted fridge, integrated dish washer, tumble drier and separate freezer.
bedrooms
Near the entrance you will encounter the first bedroom, with feature stain glass panes, ample storage and twin beds (can be converted into a double) - all lovingly decorated.
From the first lounge climb a large winding staircase, supported by the original pulpit, with commanding views over the lounge. On the upper level is the master bedroom with large double bed and en-suite shower room containing electric power shower, WC and basin. The room is lit by tasteful velux windows which do not detract from the character of the home.
bathrooms
Leading from the entrance hall there is a large family bathroom, which contains a WC, bath and basin. The bathroom lets in lots of light and is tastefully decorated in wood and neutral colours.
Off the kitchen, is a small utility room and another WC closet with basin. Leading off the upstairs master bedroom is an en-suite shower room containing electric power shower, WC and basin.
outdoors
Outdoors and to the rear of the home, there is a wonderful enclosed, raised walled garden. Furniture for dining a BBQ are provided.

“This is an absolute gem” Reviewed on Trip Advisor September 16th, 2015 Càme across this little gem by chance because I was looking for a holiday let for 4 adults and a dog. Was amazed when this came up. It looked stunning in the photographs and I was thrilled when it was available for the week we wanted so I booked it straightaway. We arrived a little later than anticipated, but the owner saw us arrive and came to greet us and make sure we had everything we needed. The chapel met all our expectations and more besides. Bedrooms were large, three loo's so there was never any fighting(!) and living area large and very comfy, four adults and a very lively puppy didn't get under each others feet at all. The owner was on hand if there were any problems (no hot water on Sunday morning was dealt with promptly and fixed by the time we returned on Sunday evening). The only downside (if you can call it that) was the very tight turn into the drive, but we had that down to a fine art by the middle of the week. Fantastic base from which to tour North Devon, friendly pub 2 doors away serving great food. Can't recommend highly enough, we'll certainly be back

“Lovely converted chapel full of character and charm.” Reviewed on Trip Advisor May 27th, 2015 Beautifull wood panelling, high ceilings and stained glass windows. Cupboards full of charming china and modern accessories. indoor games and outdoor BBQ in sheltered sun-trap of a garden. We couldn't have asked for more. The Chapel/cottage was comfortable and spacious - only downside was getting in and out of the narrow driveway - take your small car - otherwise perfect in every way.

The Old Chapel has been sympathetically renovated and is presented beautifully, with excellent facilities throughout. The large living and dining areas are exceptional and provided the perfect setting in which to celebrate my birthday with family and friends.
