Two The Chapel - Staveley

I was delighted with the cottage as it exceeded my expectations.

All appliances were modern and of high quality. The rooms were spacious and warm. The location meant we could catch the bus easily , pop to a shop or cafe and do local walks in the evening. Definitely hope to return. Thank you to the owner and manager.

Excellent accommodation.

Clean, thoughtfully fitted out with everything you might need (brand new oven). Great location for walking. Shop down the road is handy. We enjoyed the fish and chips (pizza also available) and the bakery/cafe in Stavely is an absolute must!

Great location in Staveley, on bus route for easy access to Kendal and Windermere.

Super clean, great towels and amenities. The big negative is the oven- I was there 6 nights very difficult to cook in the oven- it would not take much to have a decal added to show you the oven functions that work. the fact that this is a constant negative in the review and is still not corrected would prevent me recommending to others

We had a lovely stay at Two The Chapel.

We had a few teething problems on arrival which were dealt with quickly from both the company and the owner. We can't fault the accommodation, well equipped, lovely comfy bed, lots of linen and a great location. We would definitely recommend Two The Chapel and hope to return soon.

The cottage was lovely and we would book again.

Two points of feedback which we think are important: 1. The heating element on the fan setting of the oven appears to have failed. We could only get the oven hot using the non-fan options. Also, because the setting markers have rubbed off it was hard to tell what oven function we were trying. We had to guess using the instructions we found in a separate folder. If a family was relying on the oven (eg staying at Christmas or for a celebration) the fact that the fan oven does not work could be a big problem and should be fixed. 2. It can be very difficult to unlock the back door from the inside. It could be dangerous if you needed to leave in an emergency. We hope this is helpful.

This lovely cottage was extremely comfortable and cosy.

We were left some logs for the log burner which we used the first night and bought more for the rest of the week. The village is lovely with local shops and pubs nearby. Our car is electric so we were extremely pleased to find the village had. A set of charging points nearby which was great! All in, this is a lovely holiday home only 10mins from Windermere.

Great location and ideal base for exploring Lakes.

Back entrance door catching at the bottom and would benefit from a joiners touch. Perhaps a ideas folder with things to visit would be useful.But a really nice base with character. Enjoyed the stay.

Very happy with the property and the village in general, good local facilities and easy access to the Lakes .

It was very cold on arrival 4pm , would have been nice if the heating had been timed to come on before arrival.

The plug in the big sink in the kitchen does not work. Water escapes . Otherwise this was a lovely place , comfortable, warm when the wood burn was on. Stavely is a lovely place to eat, shop and walk.

Lovely place to stay and can’t wait to get back to the place in the future

Attractive property with very good amenities.

The living area was comfortable and the kitchen well-equipped. Nice wood-burning stove was much appreciated for our Autumn stay. Staveley is a great base for access to both Kendal and the Lakes,

Really enjoyed our stay, lovely cottage and location.

The cottage is located between Kendal and Windermere which makes it ideal for exploring the area.

It has good public transport links and trains run once an hour. It is well equipped but if you want to cook bring all the basics such as salt, pepper, oil, spices or purchase them locally as there are none. There is car parking that is shared with the neighbours but it could be a struggle for a very large car. The front door is difficult to unlock and open. The bedroom could do with hoovering up some cobwebs on walls and ceilings. Overall, we had a great stay and would recommend this cottage.

the TV didn't always start and had to be disconnected, powered down and then it worked.

The toilet flush did not always clear the bowl and a bucket from downstairs was used. The bathroom fan is very noisy and was switched off for the duration of our stay

The FreeSat box did not work and the radio proved to be non-operational.

However, the WiFi was effective and the cottage generally well equipped. Only one toilet roll and no spare provided which was disappointing. Generally quite pleased with our stay and the bed was both large and comfortable. Would have liked better guidance on re-cycling options. A nice place to stay although parking under the large tree saw our car coated with guano most mornings (not much can be done about this!).

The accommodation was good.

It was clean but not spotless. Lounge sofa was ok but being a sofa bed and from past experiences they are never the most comfortable. The bathroom was compact, and would benefit from a shower curtain rather than a screen as access to taps and shower was very limited. One other issue was the shared garden access, which at times got quite busy, which wasn’t mentioned in the cottage description.

Great accommodation with good facilities.

Heating was a bit hit and miss. Would stay on all night and go off early morning. Other than that we had a great time.

A lovely cottage in a good location.

We used the twin beds but were worried as the slats fell through, very flimsy.

Loved this property it had everything we needed for a weeks stay.

The beds were very comfy and the kitchen was equipped to a good standard. Staveley itself was a dream right on a bus route to every main town you need. At great hours and only £2 a journey or you can use oap bus pass. The village had a fab brewery with tap room, three coffee shops, a butchers, a chip shop and a Spar. We also walked up to the pub at Ings. From the bus we visited Kendal, Ambleside, Windermere and Keswick, from these places we were easily able to access the walking routes we wanted. We drove to Aira Force Falls for an amazing hike up the side of the waterfalls. We would definitely like to visit again.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting… Great village ….

. Easy to find, off road parking.. very important to us …. Clean, comfortable, cannot find anything negative to say… We had a brilliant few days here .. Yes, I would highly recommend…

We loved our stay - the kitchen was well equipped, living room cozy and the beds very comfortable.

The bathroom wasn't quite the same standard as the rest of the property but it was perfectly functional, and the shower was nice and warm. The utility area just inside the door was well thought out - and kept muddy boots out of the living area. Great jumping off point for the Lake District and the facilities in the village, including pub, brewery and ice-cream shop were fab.

Very well-equipped, spacious and comfortable.

Property was very clean and everything as described. The internet connection is a bit patchy but otherwise we couldn't fault the property in any way. (noisy jackdaws in trees but we didn't mind!)

Great little cottage, very comfortable and well supplied kitchen.

Perfect location for south west Lakes - close to Windermere, also with an artisan bakery / cafe close by and a pub within strolling distance.

A very well equipped property that has been very well locked after.

The location is excellent, avoiding the worst of the crowds but still being very much part of The Lake District. Highly recommended

Two the chapel was excellent accommodation.

Lovely well equipped home with beautiful little garden and decking area. Lot's of places to visit nearby and great selection of pubs/restaurants within easy reach.

We had a fantastic stay with our two younger children.

The beds were super comfortable and the place really did have everything you needed. Gorgeous location and with the river running along the bottom, we even had a heron walking around down there! Highly recommend!

Lovely property, great setting over looking river.

Good facilities, everything we needed for a weeks stay.

A lovely comfortable cottage with everything you need in a beautiful location.

Staveley is a lovely village.

The cottage is great. Very clean and well equipped. The beds in particular very comfy. Great to have the garden on the river.

Bril lovely place and setting convenient for everything

Great cottage in such a lovely village.

Gorgeous walks on the doorstep, and cracking local amenities with a fab brewery, bakery, handmade chocolate shop, coffee shop, pub and chippy just a few minutes walk away. The cottage itself has everything you need, and feels cosy and like a real home away from home. They even have a stash of puzzles and board games. Really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend!

PROS: Perfect location Lovely outlook from main bedroom Easy to control heating when and if needed Comfy bed and pillows CONS: Sofa and chairs very uncomfortable.

After a day on the fells you need a comfortable sofa/chair to relax in.

Thank you for the kindness you showed us this weekend when we weren’t in a position to leave on Sunday following Rob’s accident.

Well equipped and comfortable stay in the most perfect location in the centre of the village. Would definitely recommend and will be back!

The property was clean & tidy, the description was accurate on Lake lovers website.

We enjoyed our stay in your property thank you.

The property was well equipped and in a good location.

The only downside was the check in and out times.

Narrow entrance to car parking reversing difficult into main road

We (a couple)had a lovely week at 2 The Chapel.

The house was perfecrt for our needs and well equipped.The garden and river made it a bit of an oasis. It had everything we needed and Staveley was a lively village with a pub/ brewery/bakery/cafe and gelato shop all on the doorstep. For families there was a lovely play area in the village with large grassy area alongside the river. We walked from the Chapel and explored further afield on some days. We would return.

Staveley good location for travelling out, much quieter than Windermere, Ambleside but that suited us as we wanted to be away from crowds.

The local pub Eagle and Child is very close and serves good meals, local spar shop was good for basics but doesn't sell newspapers so had to go to the local BP garage about 5 mins in car. Cottage tidy and presentable, lovely riverside location with a small grassed area and raised area for sitting out. Parking is for one car, under an oak tree so you will have bird droppings on it after a week (but it's supposed to be lucky !). All in all a relaxing holiday, weather was kind to us.

A really great place for a self catering holiday, the village has everything you need.

. cafe, pubs, bakers and supermarket. Walks/ cycle from the doorstep. The old chapel has been sensitively renovated with original beams etc. The garden and river is v nice, though shared access makes it less suitable for young children. The kitchen was well equipped, with lots of useful extras. We had a great time.

We enjoyed our stay at Two The Chapel.

The only thing that isn’t entirely clear from the property description is that there is a right of access through the rear garden of the property to the neighbouring property along the terrace. It didn’t bother us but might be more of an issue if you have children in tow. Also, the entrance through the back door and the kitchen could do with better lighting and the bathroom is rather tight for space. However, we loved the location by the river and overall had a comfortable stay.
