The Chapel proudly displaying its Gothic architecture, pinnacles full of simple formal details.

Did you know that our charming Chapel was built in 1886 and served as a vibrant place of worship until 1998? For many years, our kind neighbors held the key, welcoming visitors every Sunday.

Today, The Chapel has been lovingly transformed into a beautiful and creative retreat, perfect for families and friends seeking a unique and characterful getaway or those who join us for our seasonal programme of retreats.

After falling into disrepair, the building underwent a conversion in 2006 - 2008. It remained on the market for 8 years with only occasional tenants until we joyfully took over in 2016. Now, it stands as a testament to history, love, and creativity, ready to welcome new memories and stories.

We do get to stay that often anymore but will be staying over this weekend and cant wait!
