Lovely stay at The Chapel. The accommodation was clean, tidy and very well equipped. The kitchen was fully supplied with utensils and cleaning supplies. The bed was clean and comfortable. The information package was really informative, all information regarding the accommodation and surroundings was excellent. Check in was easy using a key safe and the arrival instructions were very clear. The garden was well maintained and secure for our dog. We had a great stay here and would recommend to others!

Pub within walking distance but unfortunately, probably because of the time of year , was not open even though website indicated it was , food available at nearby trout farm but closed at 4pm.The bath on the website is advertised as being available but because of the size of the tank is not although the overhead shower is very good.These are very small negatives everything else was excellent , clean quiet beautiful views well equipped with everything needed for our stay.We look forward to returning at a better time of year when we can make use of the garden and enjoy the gorgeous scenery.
