"We couldn’t recommend the Chapel highly enough. It is super stylish, calming yet cosy and a home away from
home. The bed was so comfortable with beautiful linen and Helen left some lovely treats for us, which was a really nice surprise. She was super helpful with advice on the area as well. Thanks so much for such an amazing stay!"
