Going to the Chapel --

This converted chapel was an intriguing place to stay while we explored the Brecon Beacons. The photos don't do justice to the quaintness of this converted chapel! The beds were very comfortable, the linens and amenities were top shelf, the kitchen was very well equipped, and the outdoor spaces were special! The setting is quiet and serene and it's an easy drive to all the popular places to hike and bicycle nearby. The communication with the property manager and the check-in process itself were both excllent. It was a unique property for a wonderful stay and we highly recommend The Chapel.

The Chapel is absolutely gorgeous, exceptionally clean. The beds are lovely and comfy. The chapel is set in stunning surroundings. So much to do around the area. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.Just a couple of negatives....The Chapel needs some tlc....front door could do with a lick of paint, fence on kitchen patio needs repair, lots of picture hooks, but no pictures, which would enhance the rooms.Kettle was leaking, but replaced immediately. Hosts can be easily contacted and extremely helpful.
