We had the loveliest week at the Old Chapel in Slaley. The accommodation was fabulous - furnished beautifully and immaculately presented, but also practical. We were blessed with good weather so we got to enjoy the outside seating/dining area too. Lovely place, would highly recommend.

Absolutely amazing place, probably the best holiday accomodation I've stayed in. Stayed with my husband & friends celebrating 2 big birthdays & we loved it. The renovation is of a very high standard, beautifully furnished & well equipped with everything you'll need for you stay. Plenty of parking space at the front & fabulous garden furniture & bbq in the private back garden. It's in a quiet village location but a pub and small community shop is 5 min walk away. Hexham is a 15 min drive & great if you need somewhere a little busier with restaurants, pubs & shops. The helpful owners only next door so handy if we needed any advice. We were sad to leave & would definitely recommend The Old Chapel.
