Situated in the heart of the friendly village of Yarpole, this stylish, light and relaxing former chapel dates back to the 19th century and has been imaginatively updated to offer cosy holiday accommodation for families and friends. With ample room for up to five guests the fresh and spacious retreat features a central wood burner, original arched windows and wooden beams. Just a few miles from the border with Wales, this elegantly furnished, charmingly decorated hideaway is perfect for keen walkers, nature lovers and cyclists exploring the glorious Herefordshire countryside.

Large wooden doors lead into the original stone entryway before glazed doors lead into the main body of the chapel which has been tastefully reimagined as a fresh, welcoming open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. This beautiful space has arched windows allowing plenty of light to stream in, comfortable seating, a fully equipped kitchen, relaxing dining area and a cosy wood burner at the heart of the space. There's also an elegant ground-floor shower room. The first of the chapel's three airy bedrooms is on the first floor: a pretty king-size bedroom alongside a useful snug area with a desk and daybed. From the main part of the property a second staircase leads up to a landing where you will find two further bedrooms: a charming king-size and a sweet single alongside an invigorating Jack and Jill bathroom with a freestanding bath. Outside, the enclosed courtyard garden is split across levels and features a choice of outdoor furniture and a BBQ, providing a lovely spot for summer dining.

Yarpole has a welcoming pub and is surrounded by a wealth of fantastic attractions including the Offa's Dyke Centre, The Spaceguard Centre, Croft Castle, Mortimer Forest and Berrington Hall, all within 17 miles. Heading north-west you can explore the glorious Shropshire Hills National Landscape (13 miles).

The Chapel is a beautiful property in a very pretty, tranquil village. It was spotlessly clean and the owners have thought of everything you might need during your stay. We were provided with a lovely selection of goodies on arrival too. The village has a lovely friendly pub just a short walk away and a very handy post office and grocery store rRead moreun by the community. There is a children's playground just around the corner with a field good to exercise your dog. We would definitely recommend this property which is well located for lots of lovely market towns and places of historic interest. Hide

The Chapel was lovely, well-equipped with good WiFi and amazing water pressure! Great space in the Chapel, very peaceful inside the property and out in the little back garden space. Appreciated the fab welcome pack with thoughtful yummy bits. The information folders are very useful: info on the chapel; local walks; ideas for restaurants in the areaRead more especially those that welcome dogs (CSons in Ludlow was amazing). The village location is lovely with a well-stocked little shop and cafe inside the church around the corner, literally a 3 minute walk away. Hide

A really wonderful place to stay in a great location. We loved the wood burner which warmed us up each afternoon after a bracing morning walk with the dogs. The place is well equipped with lots of nice hot water. The beds are very comfortable with good pillows and we slept very well each night. The lounge was comfortable enough for the two of us anRead mored our dogs but it would have been a real squeeze for the five that the Chapel claims to accommodate. The garden would have been lovely in the summer. Hide

We enjoyed our week at The Chapel, it is well equipped and comfortable. There is plenty to see and do in the local area, the local community run pub has good food and drink and the community shop is just around the corner. Would we stay here again? Definitely yes.

Had a fabulous week in this lovely comfortable cottage. The welcome basket was appreciated and and everything was in good working order. A lovely oasis in a peaceful setting. The little shop virtually next door had plenty of stock and the pub The Bell was very accommodating fitting us in on the Saturday night but would recommenend booking.

This cottage is simply delightful on SO many levels The accommodation is spacious and use of the old chapel is present but not over powering. The equipment is perfect for a short break or a week. Plenty of power points for recharging. Floors easy to mop and very dog friendly. The 2 double rooms have extra space. One linked to an upstairs sitting roRead moreom with a downstairs shower and toilet, the other to a bath and toilet and a childs bedroom. So 2 quite separate spaces. We loved village pub Hide

Perfect little chapel conversion! Eco friendly with underfloor pellet heating, and electric car charger (costs extra as required), we loved it. Lovely comfy beds, all mod cons, lovely and cosy. In fact too cosy as the wood burner was sadly never able to be used even in November! Friendly locals, and a handy shop and cafe round the corner. The Bell Read morepub just a few minutes stroll is community run and fantastic. The owner was fantastic, always in touch via WhatsApp when needed. Thank you. Hide
