About this property
The Old Chapel, as the name suggests, has an ecclesiastic history, this is reflected in the seamless blend of olde worlde charm and contemporary chic. The property sits in an adorable country setting with Bowness and the shores of Lake Windermere just a 10 minute drive away and there’s an excellent country pub within easy walking distance - so you get seclusion without compromising on access to amenities.
Great for couples or families, the chapel sleeps four guests over two delightful bedrooms, one of which features a Victorian corner bath - the bedrooms are on separate floors for added privacy. In addition, there’s a lovely first floor lounge giving elevated views of the surrounding countryside. The picture is completed by a fabulous kitchen / dining room with a wood burning stove and French doors that lead out to a ‘secret’ garden with a furnished patio. The Old Chapel is the perfect place from which to fall in love with country living.
The pretty hamlet of Crook is situated in beautiful Lakeland countryside and offers excellent access to the heart of the Lake District National Park. There are two hotels/pubs in Crook itself and a wide variety of super walks on the surrounding fells. Less than six miles from Lake Windermere - England's longest lake - and a similar distance from all of the amenities of Kendal, Cumbria's historic market town.

The cupboards were full of kitchen utensils which would not usually be used on a short stay holiday. Otherwise it was a lovely holiday.

The pub is barely 10 mins walk and does excellent food. Kendal, windamere etc only 10-15mins drive away. Facilities in the cottage were great, rooms v comfy and everywhere spotless. Would definitely stay again. (Possibly leave a few more essentials in a basket next time? Coffee etc, just a suggestion as no shop in walking distance). Thanks again.

Nevertheless, the likes of Bowness, Windermere and Ambleside all within easy reach. My wife was most appreciative of the large walk in wardrobe which she made a great effort to fill with even more walking attire from the local retailers! All in all a restful few days and we will no doubt return in due course. Many thanks David and Alison
