Chapel House

We’ve stayed here before, lovely place ,that’s why we came back , good location,for exploring the Cotswolds,a few local pubs . Love the way it’s been done up ,my only downside would be the no parking outside it and parking out on the road ,this time we had to pay for logs,whereas last time we didn’t.

Amazing stay at Chapel house

What an absolute amazing place. The restored Chapel was beautifully renovated and had everything we needed It was a very large property with loads of space and ideally located for works to pubs and restaurants. The woodburner made the place so cozy and warm ideal for winter getaways The only feedback would be there is very little outside space which we knew about but they could do a little more with what was there as the outside furniture needed updating

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location

What a fabulous cottage! Everything we needed and Bampton is such a lovely village to explore whilst being a great base to visit the rest of what the Cotswolds has to offer. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

An excellent over all experience

Could not have been better! An excellent, professional booking and management service from Stay Cotswolds, we would definitely use them again. A very well looked after property, well provisioned in terms of things you may need to the house. A very good location with walks on your doorstep if you have a dog. Only one minor comment is the TV that switches itself on in the primary bedroom (there is a notice), however it would be better if it was replaced.

Unique relaxing stay in a converted chapel in Bampton

We stayed a week at this unique chapel conversion in Bampton. We loved the location and the charm of the property. It had a lovely feeling as soon as we walked through the door with the open plan living space. The property is clean and modern with a fully equipped kitchen for all our holiday self catering needs. We would recommend this property to others.

Chapel House

Comfortable stay in Chapel House, good facilities and well looked after and sympathetically converted. Ideal for four people and dog, the log burner is essential for cold evenings. Bampton is a lovely friendly village with a good range of shops and pleasant walks.

A fantastic house with lots of authenticity

From the moment you enter the house, you feel welcome. The spacious kitchen with living area exudes class and warmth. We felt very comfortable there during our stay and enjoyed the cosy evenings with dinner in the house. We can only recommend this place. The only thing in mind is the lack of a garden in summer, but the region offers so much nature.

Beautiful place

Warm, beautifully designed and a great welcome basket. The underfloor heating kept the Chapel lovely and warm (when it switched off at night there were a few loud bangs as the wooden floor contracted). The attention to detail was superb from the fitted kitchen and appliances to the soft furnishings, lamps and pictures. It was lovely to have the goodies in the welcome basket after travelling. The location of the Chapel meant that shops and cafes were in easy reach, both walking and driving in the area. The outside side walkway where the bins were, was fine for our little dog and the small seating area.

Fantastic stay at Chapel House!

We absolutely loved staying at Chapel House! It is a beautiful home, decorated in a modern way in keeping with its heritage. You can see the attention to detail in all the photographs of the house restoration. There are pubs and a local shop nearby (walking distance) and easy access to all the main towns in the Cotswolds. The house was spotless and there was even milk, butter and bread waiting for us along with tea and coffee! We will definitely be back and would encourage anyone thinking of staying at Chapel House to just go ahead and book - you will not regret it!

Beautiful Property

Chapel House is a beautiful property, very spacious and full of character. It's extremely well equipped with everything to hand you could possibly need. It's location in Bampton means it's close to the popular Cotswold towns ans also Oxford and it's surrounding area. There's no parking outside the property but plenty of, on road parking at the end of the entrance just a few steps away. Great communication with Shelly prior to our stay, we would highly recommend a stay here. Would highly recommend.

Lovely but not suitable for elderly

Lovely property that was ideally located. Good standard of fittings, and nice touches with welcome basket.Parking was easy, even on a weekend evening, lovely walks from the doorstep.However, there is no garden, just a gravel passageway next to the house. The staircase steps are very narrow on the two turns meaning one member of our party had a significant fall and one stumbled. Luckily there was a good first aid kit! I struggled with not having a window in the bedroom as the high, small, velux window was shaded, and as stated in the description can not be opened.It would have been helpful to have some information regarding the appliances as there are no instructions available.So a lovely place, great situation, thoughtful touches but with some drawbacks.
