“We had a lovely Xmas break in really lovely surroundings, that was well kitted out and snug - the cottage was even decorated for Xmas which was really nice for our 3 children (and the adults too if truth be told!”

“We all really enjoyed our stay.”

It was a lovely home in a lovely setting. Quiet and peaceful yet still close enough to amenities to not feel cut off. Although we didn't use the sauna, the hot tub was a great addition.

- Graham, November 2024

So glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you for taking the time to feedback. Hope we can welcome you again soon. Property Owner

“The property was very comfortable, well maintained and ideally located for us in a quiet area whilst within easy driving distance of many tourist attractions.”

The kitchen facilities were excellent and the welcome pack was much appreciated. We did not make use of the hot tub or sauna. We were surprised that there was no hairdryer but many thanks to Claire who helped to resolve this issue. We were only one couple so had plenty of room but in our opinion the property would feel very cramped with 6 adults. Whilst there are 3 bedrooms the smallest one has no wardrobe or drawer space and is more suited to children.

- Julie, September 2024

Thank you for your feedback. The hairdryer issue is being addressed as is the storage issue in the twin room. I agree that 6 adults would need to be very fond of each other to enjoy the Chapel but most larger groups do include children. Property Owner

“Lovely place to stay, had a nice week here just wish the weather had been better, nothing to do with the cottage though.”

Had everything you needed and the hot tub and sauna were brilliant bonuses. Thank you to Rose the owner for the welcome gifts, they were most appreciated, we would definitely like to return in the future.

- Kelvin, May 2024

“Absolutely lovely.”

Suited our needs exactly. Can't fault it. Comfortable and located in a great area with so much to do. Loved the hot tub to come back to after a long day out even if it was raining. Really hope to return. Housekeeper lovely too and sorted out the glitch promptly.

“Such a lovely cosy house with everything you need for a relaxing break away from home.”

So much to do in the area and all within a 35 min drive at the most, many much less than that which is great if you have little people with you as we did. Angie the housekeeper is lovely, easily contactable should you need her and her local knowledge leads to lots of recommendations of places to visit- and eat

“Lovely place to stay.”

Excellent facilities, although bins in the bathrooms or bedrooms would have been handy and a full size mirror would have been nice. Hot tub and sauna were such a treat as we had glorious weather. Would definitely recommend this property and would love to stay here again. Was lovely to meet Angie the housekeeper, she does an amazing job and was very helpful with any questions we had. Perfect base for exploring this beautiful part of Norfolk.

“We stayed at The Old Chapel during April 2023 as a family of four (children aged 4 and 9) - our stay was amazing, the cottage is very well presented with excellent facilities and being well stocked.”

The welcome pack was a lovely addition and made settling in even easier! The hot tub and sauna were both big hits and enjoyed by us all. The setting is beautiful, and the surrounding area great to explore including Foxley Woods which was a good walk, and other destinations near and far. Angie was lovely, we had a couple of questions which she was able to help with and nothing seemed too much trouble. We will certainly be coming back to The Old Chapel, and thank you so much for letting us stay here!
