Felt at home the minute we walked through the door. Spotless clean, warm and extremely comfy. The weather was unkind to us most days but it was always a joy to return to the warmth and comfort of the Chapel. Excellent property and would highly recommend. Steve, the owner was very friendly and helpful.

Where do I start this is one of the nicest accommodations we have ever stayed in. The owners are lovely and as they live on site they are available for anything you may need, Steve even took us all , plus our 1 year old granddaughter, to see the new calves, which was a special treat. The downstairs is open plan and a very large space which is brillRead moreiant for family time. Master bedroom is very good with brilliant views, other two are smaller but functional. Excellent experience had by all Hide

A very well and beautifully (recently) converted mid 19th century chapel. I think we were one of the first users. Compliments to mr Sellars. Can most certainly recommend a stay in his accommodation

Excellent luxury and comfortable accommodation. All finishes are to a very standard and a great deal of care has been taken with the refurbishment and especially with the decor and furnishings, which are superb. This cottage is very quiet and ideal for a relaxing break. Could not ask for anything more. Highly recommended!

We were the first people to stay in this converted chapel. It is a beautiful property which has been converted to a very high specification. It is in a lovely rural location but only less than 10 minutes from Pickering, a great base for exploring the area. The owners live close by and any teething issues were sorted out straight away. We really enjRead moreoyed our stay and would definitely recommend. Hide
