The accommodation is a conversion of an old chapel. The layout works very well for a holiday let, with the kitchen and dining areas downstairs, and the remainder of the accommodation, including the lounge, on the first floor with good views. The accommodation was well equipped and sensibly furnished.

Despite the terrible weather, we enjoyed our week at no.1 The Chapel. The property is well appointed. The only thing we had to move was the sofa. As it was sideways on to the TV, a stiff neck would have resulted from leaving it in that position. We moved it so that we were facing it straight ahead. Had the weather been less inclement, it may not Read morehave been an issue! Hide

No 1 The Chapel is a very impressive property, ideally situated for both walking and exploring this wonderful part of Cornwall. Directly on the coastal path with beautiful sea views and with easy access to the local beaches of Rinsey, Hendra and Praa. The layout of the property is extremely well thought out, in particular the lounge being tastefullRead morey renovated and on the first floor, affording great sea views. The owners have clearly thought of everything and the kitchen in particular, had all that was needed for our weeks stay, with no need to buy any additional items, so often lacking in other properties. My husband and i have had an extremely relaxing and peaceful week and I'm sure we will return in the near future. Hide
