This charming holiday home was converted from a former chapel, originally built in 1821. The high beamed ceilings, stone walls and slate floors all speak to the chapel’s past, whilst the reclaimed wood and stone that feature throughout the modern additions tie old and new together elegantly. This stunning, four-bedroom holiday home can comfortably accommodate up to nine guests, perfect for family gatherings or a break away with friends. We can almost guarantee that you’ll be wanting to revisit this stunning property time and time again, soaking in a little more of the magic and inspiration each time you stay.
The ground floor boasts the main living areas, with a modern family kitchen and dining area, as well as a fabulous lounge. A stone wall divides the two spaces, with an open doorway, so you can walk between them unobstructed. In the living room, the high ceilings are supported by beautiful exposed beams. Modern skylights flood the room with light, whilst rough, textured walls add a warmth and cosiness to the otherwise bright and spacious room. A wood burning stove and large sofas furnish this remarkable space.
The four bedrooms are spread around the property, with a bunk bedroom and a bathroom completing the ground floor. On the lower ground floor, there is a stunning en-suite double bedroom featuring full height chapel style windows overlooking garden. From the mezzanine level in the house, another double bedroom can be accessed, with the same full height windows capturing another striking view of the garden. The top floor of the house boasts the final double bedroom and a children’s area with a TV, games and space to play. With its own games room, 6ft pool table and FAT BOY bean bags, there is plenty in the house to keep everyone, of all ages amused and happy!
With magnificent windows and bio-folding doors positioned throughout the house, guests are lucky to maintain a constant connection with the vibrant garden and luscious treetops that surround Trequite Chapel. A sloped lawn, outdoor furniture and a barbecue make the garden an extension of the enchanting indoor living spaces.
