Ripon 9 miles.
The historic little market town of Masham is situated in the lower reaches of pretty Wensleydale alongside the River Ure. Set in gently rolling farmland, the town boasts a huge market square, where a Wednesday market has recently been joined by a popular Saturday market. There are lots of walks around the area, including a recently reopened 10 mile walk along the Ure, arguably one of the best walks in the UK. The town boasts a good range of crafts, galleries, shops, restaurants and pubs and has become best known perhaps as the home of two breweries Theakstons of Old Peculiar fame and more recently the Black Sheep Brewery, which now brews 11 million pints of beer a year! The popular towns of Ripon and Harrogate are an easy drive away. With so much to see and do in the area, this is a great place for a holiday in all seasons.
Something a bit special! A stone-built converted chapel, and former Post House, a minute from the centre of Masham. Full of character and charm, the property has been fully renovated and designed in an intriguing 'upside down' layout. The first floor features a living area with modern fitted kitchen, contemporary breakfast bar dining area and a delightful sitting area positioned to take advantage of the lovely views through the original feature windows. The accommodation has been furnished and decorated with style, seamlessly combining existing features with modern comfort. The amenities of Masham, including the Black Sheep Visitor Centre and Bistro, and the twice weekly market are on hand, while excellent walking is on the doorstep, and market towns such as Richmond, Leyburn and Hawes are within easy reach. An excellent base to get together and enjoy this beautiful area.

Previous visitors' comments about Old Chapel Post House:
The location was great. A very quick walk into Masham and close to all shops, bars, cafe etc. The accommodation was set out really well, with ten people it felt comfortable and everyone commented on how great the building was. We would book this accommodation again tomorrow!

Masham is a lovely friendly place. The building itself is stunning and the inside is set up to feel like a home from home. It looked like the owners really wanted us to feel comfortable - towels provided, plenty of crockery and cutlery, washing up materials etc. I took my daughters and their friends and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The Old Chapel Post House is very comfortable in a great village. We all enjoyed our break!
Mr Philips, Alfreton, February 2011
Size of the property, there were 10 of us and there was plenty of room for everyone - even if they wanted a bit of space alone. Masham is a lovely village with lots of amenities, especially places to eat, buy local fresh produce and there are lots of interesting places to visit - all a short distance away - walks, caverns, castles, gorges. We all had a brilliant holiday.
