A splendidly converted stone Chapel once owned by John Myers, the cousin of William Wordsworth, who is said to have visited whilst it was still a Chapel. Set in 5 acres of woodland and gardens with magnificent views over the Whicham Valley, Black Combe Fell and continuing towards the Coniston Fells.
To take advantage of the views, the Chapel has been configured with the living/sleeping area upstairs. The whole top floor is an open plan living and bedroom, with many original features, oak beams, stone walls and chapel style windows. It's a fantastic space with wooden flooring, welcoming warming log burner which is laid ready to light and a comfortable sofa. It is a great room to rewind and relax in at any time of the day.
Downstairs, there is the fully equipped kitchen including fridge/freezer, dishwasher and microwave. The dining table offers lovely views across the garden whilst enjoying your dinner. The lovely bathroom is located just off the kitchen equipped with a glorious walk-in shower and freestanding bath, a peaceful spot to relax at the end of the days exploring.
