The only issue was the heating, it was chilly and we needed the woodburner for warmth, supplies were enough for one evening only so its an extra expense! The underfloor heating is set at 19 so never came on. Its not practical to light the woodburner for wake up/breakfast etc...we did ask for it to be turned on but were refused
Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025

Beautiful place

Warm, beautifully designed and a great welcome basket. The underfloor heating kept the Chapel lovely and warm (when it switched off at night there were a few loud bangs as the wooden floor contracted). The attention to detail was superb from the fitted kitchen and appliances to the soft furnishings, lamps and pictures. It was lovely to have the goodies in the welcome basket after travelling. The location of the Chapel meant that shops and cafes were in easy reach, both walking and driving in the area. The outside side walkway where the bins were, was fine for our little dog and the small seating area.

Chapel House

Comfortable stay in Chapel House, good facilities and well looked after and sympathetically converted. Ideal for four people and dog, the log burner is essential for cold evenings. Bampton is a lovely friendly village with a good range of shops and pleasant walks.

Unique relaxing stay in a converted chapel in Bampton

We stayed a week at this unique chapel conversion in Bampton. We loved the location and the charm of the property. It had a lovely feeling as soon as we walked through the door with the open plan living space. The property is clean and modern with a fully equipped kitchen for all our holiday self catering needs. We would recommend this property to others.

A fantastic house with lots of authenticity

From the moment you enter the house, you feel welcome. The spacious kitchen with living area exudes class and warmth. We felt very comfortable there during our stay and enjoyed the cosy evenings with dinner in the house. We can only recommend this place. The only thing in mind is the lack of a garden in summer, but the region offers so much nature.

A Great Base for a week in wet Oxfordshire!

Chapel House has been very well designed to provide all the mod cons needed for a week away whilst still retaining the character of the old chapel. Comfortable stay and an ideal base for us to visit the area around Oxford. The property has a nice open plan layout albeit it did take us time to sort the light switches! The Welcome Pack was very welcomed. All in all a very enjoyable week.

Great place and lovely location

The property was really clean, renovated to a high standard and very well equiped. A lovely place to stay. Our only comment is that the heating was set at too high a temperature and we could not turn it either off or down. We had brought logs for the wood burner but could not use and struggled to open windows. I appreciate that the owner did not want the controls messed with but it was quite uncomfortable; the temperature should be lower or there at least be the ability to switch the whole thing off.
