The Old Chapel was a fantastic property to stay in for a half term break with the family and grandparents! The property was spotlessly clean, and each bedroom was super comfy! The kitchen and living spaces meant there was plenty of room for everyone to relax and read or watch TV! The spa was the added bonus, and afforded some lovely relaxation after each day of exploring the local area.
