The beautifully restored property offers a warm, comfortable stay with a well-equipped kitchen and cosy atmosphere. The village's charm and nearby quality restaurants add to the delightful experience.
The majority of guests found The Old Chapel to be very clean, with only one mention of the oven not being up to standard initially, which was promptly addressed by the owner.

Numerous reviews highlight the comfort of The Old Chapel, noting its warm and homely feel, comfortable beds, and the cosy environment it provides, even during winter.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and responsive heating. However, a suggestion for an air fryer and a single instance of a cleanliness issue with the oven slightly affect the score.

We loved the Chapel and the beautiful well kept garden, although some kitchen equipment and utensils need replacing. The village is very peaceful and an ideal location for exploring the Dales and Moors. However, walking in the immediate vicinity is very limited. Footpaths have PRIVATE ROAD signs or have had stiles highered, making it very difficult for people, and impossible for dogs, to negotiate as well as being overgrown with no visible path or signage. We drove to Scorton Lakes or Richmond Station which both have lovely walks, and enjoyed outstanding meals at The Heifer in Scorton

Lovely conversion and sympathetic renovation of the chapel. Garden is beautiful and perfect for dogs to enjoy freely. Location is a little isolated so be prepared to travel to amenities and attractions. Overall though, a very enjoyable holiday in very comfortable accommodation and beautiful surroundings

Comfy cottage which could be absolutely lovely with a few tweeks. Oven wasn’t very clean when we arrived but the owner came on Sunday to clean it which we were happy with. Good proximity to the Black Bull pub which serves good food.
