"The Old Chapel was truly lovely and we really enjoyed our week there."
We thought it was very clean, very well kitted-out, with a very modern feel in terms of under floor heating and other facilities such as the oven and WiFi speaker. The location feels very snug, with wonderful views of the Teign estuary and star-studded skies on clear nights. The amazing village store is down the lane, as well as the Carpenters Arms which is a fantastic pub. Bovey is a 3 mile walk through lovely Devonshire lanes. You can get over to Haytor through some beautiful woodland and open moorland on foot in about an hour or so. We'd seen the chapel before it was made into a holiday cottage so we can appreciate the transformation that has taken place. Thanks to Jill and Mervyn for making the place available for those of us who love Dartmoor! 10/10.

A real home from home with everything you need and the Air Fryer was a real surprise!
The welcome pack was a real bonus, lots of treats which we managed to get through during our stay.
With Dartmoor just along the lane and easy access to the coast makes it an ideal holiday location.

"Definitely worthy of 5 stars, superbly equipped and wonderfully comfortable."
At this time of year one has a nagging doubt as to whether the premises will be warm enough - with underfloor heating that doubt was removed! There is a community run shop in the village that has a good range of products including some local wine! Would I recommend the Old Chapel? Absolutely!

"The Old Chapel was a wonderful property."
Perfectly situated for visiting Dartmoor including places as far away as Lydford Gorge, Fingle Bridge, Castle Drogo and also getting to the coast at Torbay and beyond. Everything in the house was top quality, with a beautiful en-suite shower room and magnificent kitchen. The owners left us a welcome pack of bread, milk and lots of goodies - a lovely thought. We had a great week at The Old Chapel and would recommend it wholeheartedly.

"Although a little challenging to locate in the first instance, it was well worth it!"
In a peaceful and tranquil location, the Old Chapel is a real gem with views of the rolling hills from the main windows. The owners have decorated and maintained the property to an exceptionally high standard, which is complimented by the addition of fresh flowers in the property and welcome gift of wine, biscuits and basic essentials to help you settle in - they even thought of ice! The locals are very welcoming, with a well stocked shop and great food at the local pub, The Carpenters Arms, which is just a short walk from the property. If thinking of visiting, you won’t be disappointed.

"The Old Chapel is a stunning cottage set in a lovely rural setting, with wonderful views across the countryside."
The cottage is spacious, with a clean modern interior and fully equipped with all the essentials you need for your stay. Jill is a wonderful host, kind and empathetic to your needs. Jill left a lovely welcome for us; tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, bread and wine. It was wonderful to receive as we didn't have time to shop prior to arrival. We had a great holiday, going on very long walks and it was fantastic to come back to the cottage and rest in the comfortable bed after a day's walking. The village shop in Ilsington is very good too. We shopped there a few times during our stay and the vegetables and products are very good. Thank you Jill for providing a lovely experience. It was one of our best holidays in Dartmoor.
Thank you for your kind comments. It makes us happy to know you enjoyed your stay, and you are welcome back anytime. Jill
