Beautiful and cosy cottage. We had a wonderful time and the hosts were excellent. The fireplace made for the perfect setting to ring in the New Year, and the quiet surroundings were exactly the escape we needed. The thoughtful welcome touches from the hosts really made us feel at home. We’d love to come back!

Great space for a large family group

We stayed over Christmas and had a really lovely time. We were made up of three families - 6 adults and 4 children aged 14, 12, 8 and 4. Unfortunately, we stayed during a stormy few days so it was very foggy which obscured the fabulous views, and as one of the gorgeous chapel windows was loose in the frame the constant high winds forced it to mov further and further down in its frame as the days wore on making it quite drafty and very noisy with the high winds at night (two beds are in the mezzanine level of the lounge). However, the property offered space and flexibility and the two separate spaces meant we could all escape each other if we needed some time to ourselves. The table was perfect for the 10 of us and Xmas dinner, and my husband managed to cook up a feast in the kitchen (although a microwave would have been useful at times). The garden was small but lovely with great views and the weather allowed for a BBQ it would have been perfect. We hired a hot tub also which was lovely, although there was not outside light so the wet decking was a bit treacherous in the dark. We drove the 1 mile to the local bay and had a drink in the pub which was really lovely on Boxing Day. Sadly, due to the extremely stormy weather we didn’t have the chance to go out other than that, but what we saw when driving around was beautiful. Lots of well stocked shops nearby aswell which was handy. Ceri was great in the run up and contactable during our stay if needed. We’ll be back!

The old chapel is a fantastic building with plenty of room for a group of 10. The road outside can be busy. There are plenty of easy walks to and along the coastal path.

We had a pleasant stay at the spacious and well-maintained house. The garden and hot tub were definite highlights, providing a relaxing atmosphere. However, the downside was the non-functional Wi-Fi and lack of phone reception in the area, which made communication challenging during my stay.

Relaxing family get away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this unique old property. From the large entrance hall where everyone could kick off their shoes. On the ground floor was a family bathroom. And also another small bathroom with a washing machine - but nowhere to hang towels. Stairs up to the first floor led to the large living space with comfy sofas, large dining table, and step up to kitchen. The additional fridge and freezer was useful. And it was lovely to go into the small back garden from the kitchen, and watch sheep grazing. However the step down from kitchen to garden was a little hazardous, especially when using the oven or dishwasher which were either side, and you could forget there was a step! Overall the space worked well, the panoramic countryside views were fabulous and we all had a happy and memorable time.

A wonderful stay at The Old Chapel to celebrate a big 7-0 birthday, and explore the local sights with 3 generations. A beautiful, spacious, quirky and quaint accommodation, perfect for the family get together. Check in and stay was all smooth and hospitable, lots of top tips for local spots, eateries and beaches to explore. Highly enjoyable stay and way to celebrate together.

Super week in the Old Chappel

Super stay and what a great large space for 2 x 4 family’s plus 2 dogs. A huge living room , wooden fire , dining table with a mezzanine above with 2 small bedrooms which in our case the children used. A slight concern that the property is right on the main road and a fear of kids / dogs running out but interior doors in addition to the exterior doors should mitigate this circumstance. The location is fabulous with a beautiful beach / cove 15 mins walk / 3 mins in the car ( parking available ) away. Good communication with Ceri ( the owner) before and after our stay and she was helpful throughout. A fabulous holiday , great property & great location. Steve

Improvements needed at Chapel

Great position near to our favourite beach. We felt the bathrooms needed improvements. Also the bedrooms downstairs needed more cupboards/ drawers as there was little space to put belongings. The big wardrobe outside the rooms you couldn’t open the drawers as they were stuck. Mezzanine bedrooms are not big enough for 2 adults and there is nowhere to put any clothes. We realise the chapel is very old but feel it does need improvements if it is let for holidays. Also more plugs are needed for bedside lighting. We had to use extension leads which is dangerous with kids around who may trip over them.

Quirky but lots and lots of lovely space

If you plan to visit Cornwall with a large group or family The Old Chapel is a lovely quirky place to stay. With Trebarwith Strand just 4 minutes drive away and minutes from Tintagel and the A39 (Atlantic Highway) the north coast is easy to reach. The accommodation layout is odd but that added to the charm and the main living space is vast giving everyone plenty of space to chill out. The decking out the back is a great place for a morning coffee in the rising sun.

Great family & friends property

We spent a week at the funky old chapel 31st July. There was 2 families in our party and there was plenty of room for us all. The main room is a fantastic room with amazing views over the countryside and sea. It has everything you need for a self catering stay. The location is fab with the beach just a couple of minutes drive away, Tintagel just over 2 miles and Port Isaac and Bude about 30 minutes away. Ceri was a fantastic host and answered every question I had. A great Staycation was had by all. Thankyou

Outstanding property and hosts

The Chapel is the most unique and wonderful holiday home. Ceri is a brilliant host and went the extra mile to make sure we enjoyed our stay in Cornwall. The beds were comfortable and the house was exceptionally clean but also very cosy which made relaxing possible. I highly recommend this property as a base for exploring Cornwall.
