"Pros. Newly developed property so the decor is fresh Well equipped."
The garden is perfect for dogs but the fencing restricts any views. Cons. The furniture is not very comfortable nor is the bed. The Hot tub needed attention as the water was very cloudy, I don’t think the chemicals were right, very strong smell of chlorine. As this was one of the main reasons why we booked this property we won’t be returning

"The Chapel was lovely, very clean and really well equipped with everything you might need and a nice touch were the dog bowls provided for us to use."
The garden was perfect for our little dog to run around in. We enjoyed having a real fire in the evening. The only disappointing thing was that we couldn't use the hot tub at all as the water was not clean and was very cloudy when we arrived and it did not clear during our stay. Apart from the hot tub issue, we couldn't fault Richrose Chapel itself.

"Really enjoyed our stay."
Very well equipped. Everything that was needed was provided. Cottage had everything. Would like to return again at some future point. Hot tub was brilliant.

"A lovely property well designed, warm, clean and modern."
Hot tub warm and clean with excellent privacy. Location excellent especially when we went as we were surrounded by fields of open daffodils. Stunning. Suggestions - please provide a couple of saucepans with lids so those who wish can cook. In the Welcome info in a prominent place to provide a caretakers contact number for problems even if this is to be Sykes. We need to know. A lovely stay at Richrose and a big thank you to Sykes.

"No hot tub , no kettle as it leaked and took two days to replace, Chapel on a main road ,but misrepresentation in your pictures, it was deliberately made to look like it was on a country road ."
I couldn't walk my dogs on it and had to put them in the car to take them out. with being on a main road the traffic noise all through the night was horrendous.

"A great little cottage."
We loved it. Well equipped with everything we needed. Idea for our dog too with much thought gone into providing bowls, blankets and even a spare lead. Only one slight disappointment. The sofa and arm chairs were not that comfortable but the log stove and the coziness of the old chapel more than compensated. Many thanks!

We fell in love with the pictures before we even saw it in person, and it did not disappoint, we even booked a 2nd stay before we'd left

Wow this place was fantastic and we will be back as wife loved it , my wife is a member of staff in a care home and this trip was arranged was arranged as a trip for her birthday after a long hard year and she loved it, the weather was horrendous but she got away without stress , due to inconsiderate previous guests leaving late we were later getting in but nothing major also the owner turned up to change a lock as inconsiderate previous guests took a key with them and he sorted it within 5 minutes (very polite) now my wife wants to buy the place

"This is a beautiful little place and we would have happily stayed longer."
Well laid out and equipped, interesting history and very relaxing atmosphere.

"We enjoyed our stay massively."
The secure garden and it being 100% firework free was a HUGE selling point for us. The secure gated car spot was a nice touch too. The chapel was open plan yet still cosy. The Welcome Pack was the most thorough we have ever received at a rental - very impressed! The chapel was well equipped, especially in the kitchen. There was even a foiled tray ready for our sausages! The only feedback we would have would be from a cleanliness point of view. The listing said no dogs upstairs but the stair carpet had a lot of dog hair on suggesting otherwise. This didn’t bother us at all personally but I was worried we would possibly be penalised for this - although the dog hairs were mainly black and our dog is not. It did however suggest the stairs carpet hadn’t been hoovered properly.

"Just back from a wonderful week at Richrose Chapel."
It has been thoughtfully and lovingly converted and restored to make a comfortable and unusual holiday home. The owners have done an amazing job. The online photos are accurate - it really is set away from any neighbours; the handful of dwellings along the same road are around half a mile either side of The Chapel. First impressions were excellent - the stained glass windows in particular are wonderful, and the interior is finished to a high standard. The hot tub is a great addition. The Chapel is cosy and comfortable and very well equipped. Comfy beds and scrupulously clean throughout. Only downside would be that the sofa is a little hard and low backed so not the most comfortable - just a small and fairly insignificant detail! We encountered an issue while we were staying which was reported to Sykes immediately. The owners arranged for a tradesman to come out within hours to rectify the problem without any significant disruption to our holiday - we appreciated this greatly! There’s not heaps to do in the local area in our opinion, so I’d recommend this mainly for those seeking peace and quiet and an unwind. We took trips out to Hunstanton Old beach, to the Lincolnshire Air Heritage museum in East Kirkby, and to RAF Coningsby, all a 45-60 minute drive from the property. We would love to return to Richrose Chapel - possibly in autumn/winter so as to truly enjoy the cosy log burner!

"Loved the quirkiness of the property and when the sun shone through the stained glass windows the reflection around the the rooms was beautiful."
Great facilities everything we needed. Lovely location and peaceful. Appreciated the security of the garden for our doggies however would have like to have been able to see the beautiful view of our surroundings and sunrise without having to stand up. Our only downside was we found the furniture to watch the TV was uncomfortable. The bed was really comfortable and had good a good nights sleep every night. Great location only a short drive away and from amenities and some good dog walks. Will definitely visit again

"The property was spotlessly clean and the whole place was beautiful."
The little touches like the welcome book, the tea tray and the logs for the fire were lovely. It was also good to read about the property and how the project was finished, well done. Had the best and most peaceful relaxing holiday here, looking forward to next year already! The only thing which i would advise would be a hook to keep the back door open! With the wind it kept slamming shut so we used the pot plant to prop it open!

"One of the smartest, most comfortable, and best equipped cottages we have rented from Sykes over the years."
In particular, the detailed instructions for absolutely every device and system in the cottage were excellent. The only tiny glitch was our inability to find any cutlery. I had to phone Sykes, who contacted the owner, and told us about the secret cutlery drawer inside another drawer under the worktop. I believe this is a 4 star cottage - why isn't it 5 star?
