About The Old Chapel

The Old Chapel is believed to have been originally built as the Methodist Chapel for Chapel Amble in 1840, it was tastefully converted to a home in 1996 and remains a Grade II listed property. It is large enough to be a comfortable holiday home for up to nine people.

Most of the original exterior features remain. The original floorboards are now upstairs and the pews were made into the existing kitchen worktops. The large slate hearth was mined locally and allegedly took 12 men to place where it is now.

The ground floor is open plan on a stripped pine floor with rugs, scatter cushions and a logburning stove.

The kitchen area has a Stanley oil-fired range and seating for 10, around a large farmhouse table. Further lounge seating is available for up to eight, with television, VCR and stereo. There is a shower room to the left of the entrance lobby.

Off the vaulted space of the open galleried landing there is a large bathroom, with a rolltop bath, and 3 vaulted, beamed, double bedrooms, all with an extra single bed, 2 of which are on raised mezzanine sleeping platforms. These platforms are reached by ladders - so may not be safe for small children.
