“We really enjoyed our stay at the Old Chapel.”

Upon arrival, it was clear the standards of cleanliness were high and the whole cottage was incredibly welcoming. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and the bedrooms were very comfortable. It's in the perfect location for visiting both Scarborough and Whitby and, despite being on a main road, the traffic noise was minimal. We would definitely return.

Victor June 2026

“What wonderful accommodation the old chapel was exceptional.”

Everything in the property was pristine I think it’s the best holiday let we have ever stayed in the only downside being we should have booked for two weeks instead of one we will most definitely return for another stay it’s situated in a beautiful village and is top notch

- Victor, June 2026

Thankyou so much Victor for your kind words. You will be very welcome - thanks again Jean and Rob Property Owner
Angela May 2026

“A wonderful little chapel, full of character and space.”

The kitchen had everything you needed. Beds were super comfy too. The little bonus was the cricket field two minutes walk from the chapel. The only thing we struggle with was the parking as the space outside the chapel is very narrow but we cracked it in the end

- Angela, May 2026
Annette May 2026

“From the moment we arrived,we knew we had found somewhere special,beautiful accommodation in a brilliant spot ,we used the local bus route to Robin Hood Bay Whitby and Scarborough.”

We enjoyed the local walks along the cinder track to The waterfall thank you for a brilliant stay

- Annette, May 2026
Kevin April 2026

“Fabulous conversion - warm, well equipped, comfy beds and sofa's.”

Rooms are more spacious than in the photographs. Lots of little details like map on the wall, loads of plug sockets, retractable washing line. Good location to explore local coastline and towns. Lovely welcome of teabags and wine! We hope to return Thank you.

Caryl December 2025

“The Old Chapel is a beautiful property set in a small village with good amenities.”

The property was beautifully presented with everything needed for our holiday stay. It was warm and cosy and we would certainly recommend. There was a lovely walk to the cricket field and surrounding fields to take our dog. There is easy access to the beach at Scarborough, Robin Hoods Bay and Whitby either by car or bus. A big thank you to Jean for her hospitality.

- Caryl, December 2025

Thanks for your lovely review. We're pleased you had a good time. Happy New Year and we look forward to welcoming you again Property Owner
David August 2025

“A really nice property in a good position and excellently positioned if you want to use the local bus service to Whitby or Scarborough.”

If you drive there is good parking available alongside the property. Two accessible pubs that provide food. The Old Chapel ticks all boxes with good facilities and furnishing. We look forward to our return.

- David, August 2025
Judith August 2025

“A beautiful, spacious home, cleverly designed from the old chapel.”

Wow factor on entering. It has comfy settees, comfy beds and a well equipped kitchen. Spotlessly clean. Lovely peaceful setting yet near to lots of places to visit. Good wifi signal. Lovely welcoming gift...much appreciated. Would definitely return.

- Judith, August 2025
Gary August 2025

“We had a wonderful stay in Old Chapel during the middle of August.”

The cottage was clean and comfortable throughout, with all the equipment you could want. Beds were very comfortable and we all slept really well The courtyard was great to let the dog into, and the cricket club at the bottom of the footpath was perfect for early morning walks. The cottage was well situated to explore the North Yorkshire coastline and moors, and was a lovely home from home to come back to in the evening. There are comments about parking being difficult, but once you got used to it, it was fine. The only slight issue we had were the stairs which were a little slippery with not having carpet, but with shoes on, it was nothing to worry about.

- Gary, August 2025
Michelle August 2025

“We had a fantastic time at The Old Chapel, it was the perfect place for our family holiday.”

A really lovely property with some interesting features and a little bit of history. Cloughton is a beautiful village filled with friendly people. We were lucky enough to visit during the Perseids meteor shower so walked the short distance to the coast to watch for shooting stars. Very close to Scarborough and also quite close to Whitby. We ate some incredible food out and also had a takeaway at home. We loved chilling in the living room. The lighting was cosy and versatile - we were able to sit on one sofa with the lights low and our daughter was sat on the other sofa drawing with light on above her so she could see. Sofas were very comfortable (maybe too comfortable as I kept falling asleep!) The kitchen was well stocked with utensils etc and the Yorkshire tea bags were very much appreciated (Yorkshire tea is the best tea!!). The neighbour was also really lovely! Definitely recommended for families, couples or friends!

“A beautiful cottage with everything you need in a gorgeous little village 5*”

Caroline June 2025

“Brilliant in all aspects.”

When it was described as dog friendly it was an accurate claim. Garden fence doubly secure with chicken wire to prevent dog escapes. Not all gardens provide secure areas and we have been to plenty of holiday homes that aren't. A perfect holiday getaway with loads of places to visit nearby.

- Caroline, June 2025
Aj June 2025

“A lovely little cottage on a quiet backlane, a stones throw from several lovely walks.”

.. They even provide a blanket to protect the couches from your dogs. So many couches are naive enough to believe you can keep your dogs off the couch when you are fast asleep, as if. :) The parking is a little tight but you can park on the main road without any bother.

- Aj, June 2025
Nigel June 2025

“Nice comfortable accommodation.”

But could do with a bit of tic. And some minor maintenance and refurbishing. But all in all a nice place.

David April 2025

“Without a doubt the best place we have stayed in, I cannot fault it.”

The location, the cleanliness, the facilities, absolutely perfect. Great communication from Jean and very good value for money!

Pilar March 2025

“The Old Chapel simply could not be better.”

Beautiful restoration of an old chapel, lovely and comfortable accommodation with superb attention to detail. The area is beautiful to explore with so much to do; the week just went so quickly! The owners are extremely helpful and considerate. Our first visit and I understand why so many people keep returning. Absolutely 10 out of 10!

- Pilar, March 2025

Thanks for your lovely comments. So pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you again - Jean Property Owner
Susan December 2024

“Lovely property which is far better than its photographs.”

Despite others comments, there was no problem okay? re parking and we have a large 4 x4 Jeep - just tucked it in next to the wall. The property provided everything we needed and more. Tastefully decorated for Christmas which was a bonus. It was nice and quiet too, just far enough off the main road to avoid any traffic noise.

- Susan, December 2024

thanks Susan - appreciated - All the best for 2025 Property Owner

“Really good.”

Exceeded our expectations

Rachel September 2024

“The Old Chapel was brilliant, everything you could possibly need.”

It's homely spotless areal gem. The reason I gave it a mark of 9 and not 10 was the parking which is very tight. I would recommend you park on the road at the front of the property in the first instance

- Rachel, September 2024

Thanks for your lovely feedback. It's fine to pull up in front of the property as long as others can pass - that's where I always park thanks again Jean Property Owner
David August 2024

“Had a lovely week.”

- David, August 2024
Sarah August 2024

“Exceptional property, perfectly laid out.”

Easy to find right on the coastal path and the bus route if you don't feel like moving your car once you are there.

- Sarah, August 2024

Thanks for the lovely feedback Sarah. Pleased you had a good time and look forward to welcoming you again - Jean Property Owner

Joanne July 2024

“Our second trip to the The Old Chapel and certainly won't be our last.”

Lovely, comfortable & homely house. Perfect base for all the lovely places to visit & we found so much more this & still have plenty to see. Jean & Rob have a beautiful place & perfectly kept ❤️ only thing I feel is missing is a chair in the bedroom but this is just personal taste. We will return to carry on our adventures .

- Joanne, July 2024

Thanks Joanne - lovely feedback and so pleased you enjoyed yourselves - looking forward to welcoming you again - regards Jean and Rob Property Owner
Jeanne July 2024

“We have been on self catering holidays for over 50 years.”

The Old Chapel was far and away the cleanest, best kept and best equipped cottage we have ever stayed in. Well done Jean and Rob.

Thank you so much for your kind comments. - very much appreciated. regards Jean and Rob Property Owner

It was a great experience lonely place to stay village was great and the Blacksmith arms do fantastic food and are so good with dogs had a wonderful time

Joanne May 2024

“A charming little cottage with everything you could ask for.”

Very clean and beds were lovely and comfortable, plenty of hot water too. The only thing we found was the toilet in the bathroom was leaking from the bottom of the cistern ( but easily mopped up ). Parking is a bit tight but we managed OK and have a big car . Lovely welcome pack on arrival . The only thing that spoilt our holiday was the horrendous weather , so cut our stay short by 2 days.

- Joanne, May 2024

Thanks for this lovely feedback - we'll sort the toilet and thanks for letting us know - what a shame about the weather - typically it's glorious now - thanks again Jean Property Owner
Kevin March 2024

“The Old Chapel was absolutely perfect for a base.”

It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The owners attention to detail was excellent. I noticed some previous comments about the tightness of the parking but was glad that I didn't let that put me off. There are in fact two options, one at the front of the property or inside the gate, we wanted a secure area for the dog so chose the former. It was fine! We had a call from the owner Jean a few days before who was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again should we return to the area.

- Kevin, March 2024
Martin October 2023

“Absolutely gem!”

Upon opening the door, we was greeted with a lovely sight, absolutely over the moon and the welcoming gift was a nice touch... Parking a little tight but luckily we only have a small car, all in all a great stay with pubs either side.

- Martin, October 2023
Dawn October 2023

“Pleasant cottage with two good sized bedrooms, location is excellent for access to the N.”

York Moors. The parking permit for Scarborough town centre was very useful. Spiral staircase could be a problem for some but fine for us. As mentioned in other reviews, getting a car onto the drive isn't easy, but not a major problem as we had a small car. We stayed for ten days and the cottage was well equipped for longer stays.

- Dawn, October 2023
Peter September 2023

“We found the property, a beautifully converted Methodist chapel, to be very comfortable, clean and all the facilities you could wish for.”

The visitor has the option to set their own temperature with a very easy to use controller. Parking is off road at the side of the chapel which is a bonus and there are plenty of dog walks within easy distance of the property. The only reason we didn’t give our stay a ten was the big gamble trying to get out of the lane from the chapel onto the main road. Cars park either side of the opening and you end up having to edge out onto the road and it’s very nerve racking. A traffic mirror placed across the road would be a tremendous help. Other than that point we enjoyed our stay very much.

- Peter, September 2023

Many thanks for your feedback, we are happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Old Chapel.Thank you for bringing to our attention that the mirror has been removed. The community are looking to get this replaced as soon as possible Property Owner
Jamie August 2023

“A wonderful place to stay in a lovely location.”

Excellent, spacious, comfortable home-from-home with super facilities and much care and attention into what you might need while staying. Well positioned, just a one-mile walk to the coast at Cloughton Wyke and with plenty of great local walks / paths (and the cinder track for cycling). Easy to get to a wide variety of beautiful and interesting spots. We will return.

- Jamie, August 2023
Joanne July 2023

“Even before our arrival Jean the owner called to check in with us & hoped we would have a lovely holiday.”

The old Chapel was everything we wanted & more, a perfect base for our week. Only down side is we should of stopped longer, we hope to return one day soon.

- Joanne, July 2023
Lynne July 2023

A great conversion of a small chapel Well maintained and well equipped Location ideal for exploring North Yorkshire The garden is not enclosed but there is a cricket field 2mins away which our dogs loved

- Lynne, July 2023
Kenneth June 2023

“Suggested improvements: Requires shelves in the bathroom Requires a chair in each bedroom Restricted parking space was a nightmare Garden was not suitable for dogs - no grass!”

Spiral staircase is not appropriate for the elderly

- Kenneth, June 2023

Thank you for your recommendations. We do have storage space for guests already in the bathroom for toiletries. We are not looking to add any additional chairs in the bedrooms as it will restrict the space, but there is plenty of space for everyone to relax together in the lounge. We've had many types of vehicles arriving and have even had a 4x4 park with no issue, however there is some off-road parking in the area if people do struggle. Our garden is shown in our photos as gravel, so no grass I'm afraid, but it is fully secured and safe for dogs. We're surrounded by beautiful and scenic fields here at The Old Chapel and also have a cricket pitch close by where people often take their dogs for exercise. We hope you were able to explore the wonderful area we have to offer. The spiral staircase is a charming feature to the Old Chapel, it does have a handrail but as it's included in our photos we hope people would know prior to booking that the property would be suitable for their needs. Kind regards Property Owner
Lisa May 2023

“Lovely cottage, clean and comfortable.”

We were left a lovely welcome gift. A real home from home, the owners had thought of everything from dishwasher tablets, dog food bowls to wash powder, really nice little extras thank you.

Thanks Lisa - really pleased you had a lovely time and the Old Chapel met your expectations - Jean and Rob Property Owner

- Marie, February 2023

Apologies that you found the property stuffy. The windows do open. We are very sorry that you were unable to do this. Property Owner
Jeffrey December 2022

“Absolutely fantastic little place to stay.”

Chapel was spotless and very well appointed. Parking for me was not an issue. We were in a discovery which would fit in the Parking area. However if your not confident with that you can easily use the area at the front of the building. Couple of great pubs within half a mile, especially the Blacksmiths Arms. Great food, and very welcoming. Dogs were made to feel really welcome. Nice walks along the old railway line. Absolutely loved my stay here, and will definitely stay again.

- Jeffrey, December 2022
Alastair December 2022

“Lovely cottage, very comfortable and well equipped, probably one of the best self catering holidays we have had.”

The only minor issues were the difficulty parking due to the very tight space, however once you have done it a couple of times it is fine. It might be worth mentioning it for people with MPVs etc. Also my wife felt having some casserole dishes would have been good. However it is a fantastic property and we will return.

- Alastair, December 2022
Frank November 2022

“Beautiful cosy cottage, well appointed and well thought out.”

Nicely positioned for access to Scarborough and Whitby with good access to the coast and local walks. Sits nicely between two dog friendly pubs. What's not to like?

Angela June 2022

“What a fabulous place to stay.”

A beautiful chapel conversion with everything you could possibly need. Owner Jean very hands on and available at the end of the phone, even phoning before hand to see if anything was needed before our stay. Ideal location, just a few miles from the busy towns of Whitby and Scarborough but close enough to get to many places without the hassle of finding parking. Would highly recommend !!

- Angela, June 2022
Terence May 2022

“The 'Old Chapel' was perfectly located for what we wanted to do, walk,walk,walk.”

Along the coast and Cinder Track. All the facilities were there, making for an enjoyable stay. The only downside was parking our large vehicle in the rather small space available. Unfortunately we had to park across the road at the Granary which was no problem to neighbours thankfully. A smaller car would be ok though. Thank you Jean, we hope to return in the future.

- Terence, May 2022
Hilary April 2022

“Absolutely beautiful property, sensitively renovated to a high standard.”

Jill December 2021

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Old Chapel, our only regret is that we did not book it for longer, as 3 nights just wasn't enough!”

It was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay, and was immaculately clean and very comfortable. The location is perfect, 2 minutes to the cinder track to walk the dogs (which can take you to Robin Hoods Bay or Scarborough) and we discovered a lovely welcoming pub called The Hayburn Wyke Inn, which is located 2 miles along the path towards the North. The Old Chapel is warm and welcoming and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

- Jill, December 2021
P December 2021

“This was a brilliant place to spend Christmas.”

It was warm, comfortable, clean and well-equipped. We had a great time exploring the area with walks along the cinder track and cliff path. We had plenty of wet weather but having a lovely warm place to return to meant it didn't matter. We would love to stay here again.

- P, December 2021
Samantha October 2021

“A wonderful place to stay in a lovely location.”

Cleanliness was first class and communication from the owner Jean beforehand made it more personal. Would definitely stay there again! Thank you

- Samantha, October 2021
Kerry October 2021

“Its a lovely house.”

Great catchment area.used the bus that stops more or less bang outside. Visited whitby,Scarborough, did the walk to hayburn wyke waterfall. And visited the wyke inn. Which is a lovely pub serving good homemade food. 2 lovely local pubs within 2 minutes walk from house. The house was lovely and clean. Modern. Theres a nice little field near the house to take the dogs for a quick walk. Will definitely use again

- Kerry, October 2021
Gerald September 2021

“The Old Chapel was very comfortable, warm and quiet and all the required facilites were available and in good order.”

The situation was perfect for walkkng the wonderful Yorkshire coast with the proximity to Scarborough being ideal for shopping and entertainment.

- Gerald, September 2021
Shaun May 2021

“Great location for exploring the coast.”

Lovely cottage which included all the mod cons we use such as good wifi and smart TV. I found the parking fine with a Golf although it may be a bit tight if you have a large car. I would suggest if your cyclists take some good locks as there isn’t anywhere to store bikes. Well done to the owners as they seem to have thought of everything. We would definitely stay here again.

- Shaun, May 2021
David May 2021

“Our stay at The Old Chapel was perfect.”

Our hosts provided loads of useful information on our stay and the locality. The cottage was spotless and so comfy. The location was great for walking along the Cleveland Way and Cinder Track. We visited Scarborough, Filey, Whitby and the National Park. A week was not long enough; we will return.

- David, May 2021
Richard April 2021

“We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Chapel.”

It was very well equipped, clean and in a great location to explore the beautiful North Yorkshire coast. The parking was not really an issue as others had said. The Prosecco and Yorkshire Tea which had been left for us were a nice treat! We would definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.

- Richard, April 2021
Barrie October 2020

Julie September 2020

“Excellent felt like home from home.”

Central to enjoy lots of places. Would highly recommended and definitely be back.

- Julie, September 2020
John September 2020

“We found the Old Chapel to be extremely comfortable and very clean.”

It was equipped with everything we needed and more considering the current climate. We had thought it might be devoid of cosy extras like cushions and throws or books and DVD's but the Chapel had everything. The parking was a little tight but we managed ok. And obviously that is something the owners have no control over. The only other thing might be to have a notice to inform people how very hot the water is! Certainly no problem getting a hot powerful shower! In all we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and would definitely recommend it.

- John, September 2020
Karen August 2020

“The Old Chapel is lovely, very cosy, well maintained and in a fabulous location for a variety of walks.”

The only criticism I would have is the same as most people have commented on and that is the parking. Whilst I know there is nothing that can be done about the space, there is some improvement that could be made. We have been to this property twice this year, the first time we used the driveway and this time the parking space at the front because we wanted to give our dog outside freedom of the driveway space. Although the parking is tight at the front, it can be done (even in a smaller 4 x 4). However, this takes a bit of manoeuvring back and forth to get it right with the wheels just about off the road. The problem arises when the tyres skid on the gravel which very nearly led to a scape on the wall. This would be greatly alleviated if both areas were paved rather than gravelled with a smooth slope to the edge rather than wooden kerbing. It would also eliminate the gravel being spread across the lane and having to be swept up. Whilst we were there, the Red Bull was closed but the Blacksmiths Arms, a few minutes away served good food. This time of year beware of ticks, make sure you treat your dog just before you go!

- Karen, August 2020
Kerry August 2020

“This is one of the best equipped cottages we have ever used.”

Great use of the space available.

- Kerry, August 2020
Yvonne August 2020

“We found getting on and off the drive difficult.”

Also several times met other cars coming onto or down the lane when we came onto it. Can’t see traffic coming on the main road when you’re wanting to pull out. I know you can’t do anything about this but I think others considering booking may need to know - especially if the are nervous drivers or have large cars. We had a lovely holiday though xx

- Yvonne, August 2020
Richard July 2020

“Very relaxing stay in a superb location, just what was needed in this craziest of years !”

The cottage was very clean, comfortable and had everything you could need. Lots of dog friendly pubs on your doorstep, just a shame there’s no village shop.

- Richard, July 2020
Marie September 2019

“Lovely cottage, very well equipped and clean, parking was quite awkward, anyone with a big car would really struggle as it was quite tight.”

We had a Ford Focus and it just fit. Great open plan layout with very comfy bed. Overall a lovely cottage and well placed for a couple of pubs and Scarborough a short drive away.

- Marie, September 2019
Sam July 2019

“The double bed was very comfortable as was one of the single beds but the single mattress under the velux window was very soft and quite uncomfortable.”

The tin opener didn't work. There was no outside tap for rinsing sand off wetsuits and other beach stuff which would have been very useful. But otherwise the place was faultless

- Sam, July 2019
David July 2019

“The old chapel was a well made conversion comfy and well maintained.”

it was the perfect base for exploring the east coast . and the best thing was a free bottle of wine and packet of Yorkshire tea lol.

- David, July 2019
Marian June 2019

“Parking is tight as described.”

But this is a beautiful property in a convenient location for Scarborough & surrounding area. Excellent use of space with great facilities.

- Marian, June 2019
Haley April 2019

“Beautiful old chapel reinvented to a high standard.”

Close to good walks and pubs . Only draw back too close to other properties neighbour had very powerful security light which shone straight into bedroom on a evening . We found parking was not a problem and we have a estate car . Overall a beautiful property .

- Haley, April 2019
Lorna April 2019

“Excellent property exactly as shown in pictures.”

Owners very helpful with contacting prior to arriving to provide arrival instructions. Property beautifully furnished and well equipped. Cinder track and coastal path nearby. As mentioned by other persons parking space is a bit tight for a larger car but as advised by owners it is easier if you turn at top of lane. Would definitely recommend.

- Lorna, April 2019
Nicholas March 2019

“Lovely cottage with all modern amenities, superb location.”

Had the "wow" factor!

However,this did not spoil our stay.

Daniel August 2018

“Lovely little cottage.”

Very modern facilities and near to lots of attractions. Only minor point to note is that parking is a bit tight.

- Daniel, August 2018
Michelle April 2018

“The chapel was lovely and had all the things that we required.”

The location was perfect to near to paths for walking, pubs for a drink and a meal. The only downside really was the parking but we stayed on the main road and the garden as the gate didn't form a secure area for our dogs to go outside.

- Michelle, April 2018

Thank you for your feedback. We have taken your comments on board and have now fully secured the garden area. We hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner
