Fantastic location close to many places of interest.. The owners were very friendly and helpful without being too much. The cottage is very comfortable and extremely well equipped. We thoroughly recommend it and will certainly be going back there later in the year.

The photos of the cottage do not show how near the property is to the owners or how the far side of the property is directly on the road.. This didn't worry us at all as the owners were friendly without being intrusive but some may prefer to be more isolated. The master bedroom, though very cosy and well fitted, was smaller than anticipated and might not suit a very tall or larger person. However these are minor details and overall we were extremely happy with the layout, facilities and general warmth of the chapel conversion. There was plenty to do on the odd day we chose to remain inside which was good. We will definitely book the same cottage for a return visit as it is perfect for visiting family. The two dogs were adorable and very friendly!

Very peaceful place & a great location to experience the Peak District.. The Old Chapel was exactly what we hoped for & the owners, Martin & Jayne ensured everything was perfect throughout our stay without intruding in any way. I would definitely recommend The Old Chapel & the Surrounding area for anyone that wants to "get away from it all"!

The property is excellent.. It's furnished to a high standard, with comfortable sofas and bed and a good central heating system (there is a dishwasher, which isn't highlighted on the website). WiFi and mobile phone signal is very good. The location is very convenient for touring round without having to drive distances. The chapel is situated in the owners grounds and they are very pleasant, as are the two dogs. Would definitely return when next in the area.

What a wonderful find this converted Chapel is.. It has all the facilities you could wish for in beautiful, peaceful surroundings and is located near the many attractions of the Peak District, including Chatsworth, Bakewell and Matlock. It has been lovingly furnished to a very high degree of comfort and the owners are very friendly and helpful. We had a great holiday and would certainly recommend both the Chapel and the Peak District to anyone looking for a lovely part of the UK to visit and the perfect holiday home.

The cottage was one of the best-equipped we've ever stayed in - lots of towels (of excellent quality too) and everything you could need for a holiday.. The owners were also very friendly and helpful.
