  • Attractively converted detached chapel, unusual period property featuring a double-height ceiling and the original windows
  • Delightful garden overlooked by a sunny conservatory
  • Situated just 2 miles from the attractive harbour town of Wells-next-the-Sea and a short drive from one of the county's most beautiful beaches at Holkham
Overview
Property code: NCC40

A thoughtfully converted chapel, offering stylish yet comfortable accommodation for four guests, enjoying an enviable location in the village of Warham, only 2 miles from Wells-next-the-Sea.

Warham, where this property is situated, is a pretty village located close to Norfolk’s picturesque north coast. The characterful village pub, just a short 0.3-mile walk from the cottage, is a delightful place to pop into for a pint, but it would be a shame to miss out on sampling its signature home-baked pies. For an interesting range of shops and more places to eat, head to neighbouring Wells-next-the-Sea: also a great place to join one of the boat trips which depart from the town’s harbour. The beach is situated just outside the town and is a wonderful stretch of fine sand backed by pine trees and beach huts.

 

Guests will fall in love with this property before they even step inside, thanks to the imposing exterior which is unchanged from its days as a working chapel. Inside, the property is no less impressive, boasting a double-height ceiling in the comfortable lounge, where inviting sofas are the perfect place to relax with an electric flame effect  enjoy a night-in with a film on the TV/DVD. The kitchen/diner is well-equipped kitchen offering a dining table seating four as well as an oven, hob, microwave, fridge with ice compartment, and dishwasher. A utility room houses the washing machine and WC, past which is a sunny conservatory overlooking the garden. Upstairs there are two bedrooms, the first of which is a double room with a pine dressing table and a skylight window. The second bedroom meanwhile, is a pretty twin room, next to which the bathroom offers a shower-over-bath and WC.

 

To the rear of the property the enclosed garden is a lovely place to sit out and enjoy the peaceful surroundings and has a small lawn next to a patio seating area for which garden furniture is provided. There is parking for two cars.

The Old Chapel was quaint, spacious and very well equipped. Some earlier review remarked that it was not clean, but we didn't feel that this was the case at all. The garden while attractive and peaceful, was very small. We found the lawnmower in the shed, and it took my husband 5 minutes to cut the grass , necessary to clean up after the dog!

The Old Chapel is very attractively furnished and generally comfortable. The only slight problem was that the radiators were set at a low temperature which we could not alter, and so the main room felt a bit chilly in the evenings as the fan heaters didn't really heat such a large room.

We were baffled by the heating and hot water systems. There was insufficient hot water at 9.00am and 7.00pm on any day. There are no radiators in either bedroom. The heating is locked and said to achieve 20/21 degrees when activated my motion within the cottage. We were not able to achieve this and, as a result, felt cold when sitting quietly in thRead moree evening so resorted to the supplementary heaters. However, the radiators were hot when we returned at 1pm one day and the cottage had been vacant! Hide
