Wow factor

Absolutely stunning property! We stayed for 4 nights for a first full family holiday ranging from 16 months to 90 years old! All family members loved it. Rooms were spacious and clean. It’s hard trying to find a place to stay that can cater for all ages, from a travel cot to hot tub, to disabled access and accessibility bathroom. This place had it all. Location was great with portmeirion across the road and Porthmadog a short drive away. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

We were so lucky to spend several wonderful days in this gorgeous house. We stayed as three families, and everyone felt completely comfortable and at home. The house is bright, spacious, and cosy, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need—and even more.We cooked every day in the well-equipped kitchen, gathered together for family dinners around the large table, and enjoyed lovely evenings by the fireplace. Every bedroom has its own en-suite, which is extremely convenient. There is also a downstairs toilet and a utility room.The hot tub was a fantastic extra and added even more fun to our stay! The surrounding area is beautiful, with lovely beaches and plenty of walking and hiking trails to explore.The hosts were incredibly friendly, always ready to help and quick to resolve any issues. Overall, we had an amazing stay at the Chapel and would be more than happy to return. Thank you so much, Adrian and Iain!

Idyllic Wales Home

Myself and a few close friends booked this property for a long weekend away in Wales and to climb Snowdon. This property truly ticked every box for every one of us! It has everything you need for a comfortable stay, wonderful en-suite bathrooms and comfy beds. As well as the main living area being fantastic for the evenings, we cooked a full roast dinner for us all with no problem. The true highlight is the stunning landscape and the hot tub which you can enjoy them from! The chapel had been converted to the highest standard and really made our stay so memorable. There was so much to do around the local area that I can imagine we will book again in the near future.

Every review was a 10 when we looked at this property. We cannot disagree. A lovely place to see and the location for that area would be very hard to beat. We would visit again.

Stunning renovation in a beautiful location

We would 100% recommend anyone to stay at this property. We were a party of 11 ranging in ages from 4 weeks old to mid-60s, and had the most wonderful time. The Chapel has been renovated to the highest standard. It is absolutely beautiful, full of original features, and beautiful new additions. Each room has been so well thought out. The beds were so comfortable, the numerous bathrooms were luxurious and immaculate. The electric velux windows were a lovely addition... to wake up to the sunshine without even leaving your bed. Downstairs, the large, double-height living room has everything you need: log burning fire, large sofas, games and books aplenty, large TV, and views out to the patio, hot tub, and Snowdonia beyond. The huge dining table is fit for a grand feast, and the stunning kitchen was equipped with everything you could ever need to cook anything you could think of! I've never seen such a fantastically stocked hire property before. Towels, linens, cleaning supplies, great utility room... it's all there! Communication with the owners was great too. They sent a very thorough property and local area guide with everything we needed to know and more. It was incredibly useful! I also text them on the first day with a small query, and they were quick to respond. Very helpful Location wise, you can't get better. Easy to find, minutes from Porthmadog, Portmeirion, Snowdonia, numerous shops, takeaways, restaurants, a petrol station, the beach. We're already planning another visit. Just need to decide whether we want to enjoy the Hot Tub and panoramic views of Snowdonia in the summer or winter next time!

Absolutely outstanding

This place is truly stunning. Our host Adrian was delightful to deal with and always on hand if we needed him. If someone could have recorded our reactions when we first walked in! It was just like being at home... Only bigger more beautiful and a safe place to spend time as a large family. I cannot recommend this place enough to everyone. Thank you again for letting us stay in your property

Truly unique property

Cannot commend this holiday home enough! The house was equipped to an exceptional level and has been sympathetically renovated to a incredibly high standard. Location is amazing and views from the back of the house are outstanding. Our nightly routine of watching the sunset from the hot tub is an experience we will never forget!

Capel Minffordd

There are many superlatives that could be used to describe the property and the experience, and needless to say our short stay here was made all the more enjoyable by the fine views and comfort afforded by this well fitted home. There is an abundance of facilities and activities nearby that should satisfy the most demanding of visitors. We all wished we could have stayed longer and look forward to returning some time. Our hosts, Adrian and Iain provided more than sufficient information and hospitality to make our stay a success; many thanks for allowing us the experience!
