Great Property!
Chapel House was as gorgeous as the pictures and very clean. Communication was top tier from StayCotswold to the Property Manager. The village is so pretty and it was a great location to reach other places of interest

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.

A beautiful chapel to stay in
Chapel house was a very pretty, cleverly designed to accommodate 4 people very comfortably, made all the better for being able to take my daughter’s dog! It’s got everything you need to make it a home from home, the kitchen is very well equipped, the sitting room comfortable with a lovely log burner (easy to use), a big utility room and both bedrooms were so lush! For us the only downside was you have no control over the heating and it was too hot for us and certainly for the dog as it was underfloor heating, probably loved by most people and dogs! You could open a couple of windows. (Not in the rain though) but it would kick start the boiler on if temperature dropped too much! The boiler came on at 430 am for a long time in the morning and seemed to ‘kettle’ a bit so was noisy. The outside tap could do with a small hose on it so one could wash the dog after some very muddy long walks( great countryside!) We did lots of circular walks from the house which took us to pubs en route! All that moaning aside I would happily recommend this place to anyone! It was a joy to stay in, and Shelley was very quick to respond which was great ( thank you for the treats on arrival!)

Great place and lovely location
The property was really clean, renovated to a high standard and very well equiped. A lovely place to stay. Our only comment is that the heating was set at too high a temperature and we could not turn it either off or down. We had brought logs for the wood burner but could not use and struggled to open windows. I appreciate that the owner did not want the controls messed with but it was quite uncomfortable; the temperature should be lower or there at least be the ability to switch the whole thing off.

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.

Fantastic house to stay in but be aware really no garden or outside area
Two couples staying and the accommodation was just amazing the sitting room is just a wonderful space and the chairs/sofas are really comfortable and there are enough for everybody to spread out if they wish. The kitchen is excellently equipped and gorgeous and the whole place has been converted and done up to an extremely high standard. The only comment we would make, apart from the garden seeming from the photographs to be bigger with better seating than it actually is, is that the bedding and linen and especially pillows weren't the best quality particularly the pillows which we thought were really cheap quality, and some of us didn't sleep that well with them so take your own if you are pillow fastpot like I obviously am! Although I have rated this as excellent value for money that is due to the wonderful space the chapel has reflecting how much we enjoyed staying within this space. And I'm really sorry I forgot to put the fully stacked dishwasher on before we left! Although the booking procedure will stay Cotswold was very straightforward the follow-up with lots of emails and lots of documents to open and links that didn't work or seem to tell you nothing was rather ownerous, however the team at stakehotswolds are lovely and very helpful!

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.

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 Great Base for a week in wet Oxfordshire!
Chapel House has been very well designed to provide all the mod cons needed for a week away whilst still retaining the character of the old chapel. Comfortable stay and an ideal base for us to visit the area around Oxford. The property has a nice open plan layout albeit it did take us time to sort the light switches! The Welcome Pack was very welcomed. All in all a very enjoyable week.

Long weekend at Chapel House
We spent the Easter weekend at the Chapel House in Bampton. The property has been developed to a high standard and provides 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with a large open plan downstairs space. It is very well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. A lovely welcome hamper in the kitchen included eggs, bread, butter, milk, hot cross buns and chocolate treats. The property was extremely clean. We received a text on our arrival date letting us know that we could enter the property earlier than the 5pm given time which was helpful. Bampton is a lovely village with a couple of pubs, 2 cafes, a very nice restaurant and a butchers and deli. There are some nice walks around the area. We would definitely recommend this property for 2 couples holidaying together. One thing to note is that there is limited outdoor space, no garden at all, no parking on site but available on the local roads.

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.
