Horeb Chapel House

• "A beautiful converted chapel, stunning outlook."

  The owners were really welcoming asking for room configuration requirements before arrival. The chapel itself was very homely and instantly felt comfortable. A few nice touches with family games and books available we would love to go back again for longer and would recommend to others really local to zip wires and cave trampolines

• "We had a lovely break, the chapel is just perfect, beautiful surroundings, and very peaceful too."

  The only down side was there wasn’t much garden space for our dogs, however the rest of the accommodation was very spacious and comfortable. Would recommend this accommodation especial for a family get together or a group of friends.

• "We all loved the chapel."

  It was a great place to gather as a family, which has now become an annual event for us. The accommodation was lovely and well planned, all the bedrooms were spacious, the 3 seating areas also worked well with a group. We had 3 small dogs so the hard floors worked very well with wet paws etc. Only one small niggle was no T towels, I’m guessing this was an oversight the week we visited.

  As I am approaching 80 i found it a bit daunting getting in and out of the bath/shower.

• "Beautiful house in a beautiful location."

  Lots of space and well equipped. Our only issue was the noisy doors and floors, if one person woke early everyone was awake!

• "I have e-mailed the owner about a few little things that we feel should have been there as it is listed to sleep 8."

  But we managed. In particular the guide folder was poorly paragraphed and not explicit in details on how to run the TVs. And there were a few kitchen items short - might have walked with the last occupants.

• "Horeb Chapel is in a great location for exploring the area."

  It is very large and comfortable. We had issues with thecTV in the smallest bedroom, a loose connection or something similar. In another bedroom both the bedside lamps didn't work. Surely things like this should be checked before each new guests arrive. Also in the kitchen there us everything that you could need, but the wall units are extremely high to reach into even for people over 6ft tall.

  But could do with a good deep clean. Lots of cob webs and dust behind things like the tv, sofas corners of the ceilings.

• "Property not at marketed."

  Photos are old photos. Health and Safety concerns such as broken stairs. Water boiler not always working. TV’s not working. Burst water pipe. Had to clean crockery before using. Toilets coming away from wall. This is to name a few items - there were more. Contacted owner to give feedback - offered a measly £50 refund for compensation. Would not stay here again which is a shame a location perfect for Snowdon and surrounding area.

• "The chapel itself was beautiful and Mike was lovely to ask how we would like the beds set up before we arrived."

  The house although caters for dogs, wasn't too bad. Although the downstairs lounge a doggy smell. Bit the bedrooms didn't- which was amazing. The Chapel is tired in places it could have been cleaner - but it was clean enough. We picked An amazing weather weekend and the beautiful windows we had at the front meant it was breezy. Although, the windows were too high too reach and could do with a pole to be able to open and pull the blinds down too. Overall. The Chapel is in an idyllic beautiful place with the sound of a waterfall and the train goes past. Which is lovely.

• "Messaged the owners about chairs all needing screws on them as the seat pads lift and can trap fingers and they replied quickly to this."

  Generally the house needs a good clean especially the oven and sofa bed. Also the pilllows still don’t have covers on them as another guest had pointed out. We only used the house as a base and made the most of the beautiful setting and activities on offer in the local area.

• "We had a lovely stay - the property was perfect for our needs."

  A lovely space with all the amenities and in a great location. Bathrooms and kitchen were clean which is hugely important and it was always a good temperature. The garden was secure for my two small dogs which was essential for me to be able to relax and enjoy my holiday. The welcome pack was helpful but may need updating. There are absolutely beautiful sites to see and explore in the immediate vicinity and only slightly further afield and Snowden is only a 40 minute drive so we ticked that from our bucket list! We would definitely come back here!

  Shame the log burner was not working, one reason I booked property. Some of the outside windows rotten. Needs some work on this property to bring it up to a 5 stars.

  Thank you very much for your feedback and for raising this. I can confirm the log burner is now working fine. Property Owner

• "Beautiful accommodation which provided the perfect acoustics for our string quartet!"

  The house was also warm and cosy, with dramatic scenery and a mountain steam railway just outside the back door. The nearby slate quarries looked stunning in the sun and rain and the house was well situated to travel a little further afield to access the main mountains of Snowdonia and the coast.

  It was disappointing to find that the log burner as described in the listing was not working and we were not notified prior to our arrival as this was part of our set criteria for selecting this accommodation.

  Many thanks for your comments, apologies if you weren't aware about the woodburner not currently being in operation, Sykes will reach out to you about this Property Owner

  Its situated at a beautiful location and location is ideal as it is closed to a lot of attractions. The house is big and can accommodate upto 8 people and 2 children. Well equipped house for people of all ages. We did not have any issues during our stay. Would recommend it to anyone looking to explore beauty of North Wales.

• "We stayed here in the 1st week of July with a family of 3 generations, 6 adults 2 boys and two new born twins and the house suited us all."

  We enjoyed the upstairs open plan living, plenty of space and seating. We also had two dogs and the local walks were lovely. The location was very convenient for shops, walks and leisure activities. The Zip wire was especially enjoyed by us, expensive but well worth it. All in all we had a great time but a shame the weather was poor that week but it did not stop us from making the most of our time there. We highly recommend this property.

• "The photograph above has been cut."

  It is actually in the centre of a long line of houses. I did not recognise it when I arrived. The chapel is tired and in need of upgrade. they all compained that the beds were uncomfortable. The adult mattresses had not mattress protection. Nor did the pillows. ;Having said that we did enjoy the holiday and it will not put us off hiring another house perhaps next year. I also had to clean the fridge when I arrived something had gone down below the bottom drawer, but it was easily done. Lesley Diaper

  Thank you for your comments. The photo is actually accurate, the only change is that we had to cut some trees down. We are sorry you didn't enjoy the mattresses but we appreciate that they are subjective and personal preference. The beds do normally have mattress protectors, it's possible that when the beds were stripped they went with the bed linen to the laundry and will ensure spares are available for the cleaners. We do of course change pillow cases every changeover but will of course look at getting pillow protectors. We also apologise for the oversight with the fridge drawer and will make sure this doesn't happen again. I can also confirm that since your stay the property has been redecorated with woodwork repainted, as we continuously strive to enhance the accommodation for guest comfort. Property Owner

• "The upstairs gallery living space was superb."

  Loads of room for us all (we were two families of four staying there). A great location, with the steam railway over the road to provide added interest for the kids! You can walk on the Moelwynion straight from the front door (or park a little closer just down the road) , which is a great day out. Thanks for your hospitality.

  Thank you for your lovely comments and that you enjoyed your stay which we can see from your top cleanliness, facilities,maintenance and comfort scores. We're glad the kids enjoyed the steam railway! It was a pleasure to have you and we hope to accommodate you again in the future. Property Owner

• "The converted chapel is spacious and comfortable with lots of seating and different places to relax."

  Bedrooms and bathrooms are all a good size too. The house was let down by its cleanliness, the underside of all of the sofas, beds, shelves and drawers had not been cleaned or even vacuumed. I found cobwebs and a baby bottle which still had milk in it under one of the drawers in the bedroom and a used towel was left on the back of one of the bedroom doors. This is a shame because the house is lovely and apart from this we did enjoy our stay. Perfect for a large family or even two small families to enjoy with lots of pans / crockery to cook food, lots of books to read and even a few board games to play. The house is in a great location to enjoy snowdonia with so many great parts of Wales on your doorstep!

  A good central location for Snowdonia and the local shops and amenities are plentiful. The home could benefit from a deep clean, and when we stayed the decor looked al little tired. This did not put us off however, the place was in general tidy and clean.

• "The owners were really helpful and friendly!"

  The description stated you can park on the road and a near by parking area however, when we arrived the neighbour was watching us out of his window and came out to say “we have rules here and everyone has a place they like to park so can you make sure your cars are gone by the morning” despite our car being parked directly outside the cottage. It wasn’t helpful that they were trying to dictate where we could park on a public road. It didn’t feel like a welcoming neighbourhood as we were also told that “everyones here on holiday try not to ruin it for others” as soon as we arrived. Before we had even entered the house or unloaded the car. It felt hostile and there were a few glaring eyes watching us during our stay. Needless to say I don’t think the neighbours were happy to have people different to them staying in the cottage.

  The living space is really relaxing with a lovely mix of nice views of the mountains and natural lighting. The location is on a quiet lane backed by a mountain stream which is very peaceful. It's close to a few shops up in Blaenau and near to the Zipworld activities. It's also pretty much 20 mins from the coast, snowdon, etc.

• "The cottage was comfortable but missed the mark in a lot of different ways!"

  On arrival we were greeted by a small garden area to the front, with a tiny bbq, and bench. The bbq was inadequate for 10 people. When entering the property we were pleasantly surprised by the bedrooms downstairs, and the space upstairs… it was perfect for socialising. But it wasn’t as clean as we would of liked, we could smell dogs and a lot of shelves were dirty. We needed to use the sofa bed and when we got this out we were shocked by the poor quality of the mattress and had to put the sofa cushions under it. The village is a bit of ghost town but the cottage is a great base to explore wales!

  Well equipped and plenty of space for our party. We climbed Snowdon, and visited Harlech Beach, Fairy Glen, Betws-y-coed, Portmeirion, Swallow Falls and Cynfal Falls. All were within a 30 minute drive. Would highly recommend this cottage and will be returning some time in the future. We had an issue with using the oven on the first night and the owner was on hand to fix it straight away. Five stars ⭐️

• "Fabulous space for a large group."

  Loved the way the space was set out with plenty of room for socialising and two bathrooms was a huge bonus. Great communication from hosts and super information in the welcome file. Brilliant base for exploring and gorgeous walks nearby. The only comment I would make is the accommodation was not as clean as I would have expected. Glass was found under main sofa upstairs (by children who had dropped something) and downstairs had a strong smell which seemed to be due to previous pets urinating on rug. However, main areas such as bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless. We had a fabulous week and even the rain did not spoil our week.
