"Property was ideally situated for access to coast and local attractions."
It was very comfortable and relaxing.
I agree with other comments made about the showers being on the small side but there was plentiful hot water and heating.
Some areas need a bit of updating as a result of wear and tear.
All in all an enjoyable holiday and thanks to the neighbour for all his advice and assistance.

"Absolutely thrilled with the Old Chapel."
It was immaculate, and the decor is unique and beautiful with lots of homely touches. Had everything we needed. The Games room is super and my 8 year old loved spending time in there with plenty to do in between outings. The showers small and temperamental, but that's a minor issue and did not impact our holiday whatsoever. The surroundings are just stunning and not far at all to Old Hunstanton. One of our favourite places. The bath in the main bathroom is divine, perfect to relax and switch off and enjoy the quiet of the area. And the garden is also a beautiful place to sit and unwind from the days activities. We feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to stay somewhere so idealic.

"Lovely place to stay the wife wanted to put the whole house in her bag and take it home, the beds are extremely comfortable two TVs so no arguing with the daughter."
Small problem's the vacuum cleaner had not been emptied and the Nespresso machine jammed and I had a problem clearing it on in investigation I found it had not been emptied (never used one before) the drive is covered with beach pebbles so not suitable for walking sticks or crutches (we are both on walking sticks). This is a place to visit north Norfolk (visit to Rose & Crown lovely restaurant) a very enjoyable holiday.

Well equipped and very nice to receive 2 bottles of wine ,Thank you .
Our only complaint is with the listing that states 2 bathrooms ,this is misleading. There is one bathroom with a very small shower and a shower cubicle in the large bedroom , would be fine for a family but not for 2 couples sharing . Otherwise would recommend to anyone and would definitely come back again .

"Property stank of dogs on entering."
We could not eat in the kitchen such was the odour. Not cleaned properly at all. Lounge similarly doggy to the extant that dog allergy triggered without any live dogs present. Even with antihistamines we had to leave after just 2 nights. Do not stay here if you are allergic to dogs. Entry to off road parking dangerous if you want a safe exit, or a safe entrance means backing out onto the main road through the village. space for 2 small cars only. Entertainment good for teenagers, location nice, close to coast and Sandringham.
What a howler ! Why would you rent a dog friendly property when you have an allergy? If you had a peanut allergy then you would not eat a sneakers bar. The property has a tilled floor (common in Norfolk) which exceeds 75 percent of the property, the carpet in the lounge is washed twice a year if not more and dogs not allowed upstairs or on the furniture to eradicate smell. Review such as this are disappointing and factually wrong, we are sorry you chose the wrong property for your condition.

"Nice quirky chapel with garden."
Great location to visit Hunstanton and Sherringham. A lot of thought has gone into chapel and we liked the decor.
Owners very helpful.
The only thing we found difficult was that the village was very busy with traffic, so there was constant noise and you can hear the road in the chapel. There is also building works going on next door. This is out of the owners control, but we were hoping for a sleepy village and this was not the case.
We were a couple so the cottage was plenty big enough. I think 6 (as chapel has 3 bedrooms) it maybe be cramped downstairs. Also if you have children there is games room which would be ideal but the table football as in photos is no longer there, so maybe photos need updating.
We enjoyed exploring the area and there are plenty of places to visit.
Thank you for your comments. New photos have been ordered and the table football was unsafe due to damage caused by other guests so we had to remove it.
The chapel is based on a working estate (Sandringham) and so an element of road noise is to be expected at peak times the road is also evident in the picture we are pleased you enjoyed the decor.

"The property is not as described."
There's very little storage in the kitchen for groceries and there had been items left by previous occupiers. The instructions are not up to date and the television is far too complicated. The main disappointment was the bathroom facilities, certainly not adequate for six people especially as the downstairs toilet appears to be blocked and we did not use all week. On the positive side there are lovely neighbours and the beds were excellent.
Thank you for your response. Its a shame you did not reach out about the toilet had you done so it would have been fixed. We assisted you very quickly regarding tv operation and using the correct remote for the sound when first arriving. We are disappointed at the review having received a string of complementary reviews and an increase in returning guests. The property has a uniqueness and that is part of its charm, its a conversion and so one would expect it to be at odds with mainstream housing of today. The kitchen set up is evident within the photos and therefore plenty of storage and provisions with previous reviews being very complimentary about kitchen facilities.

Large well equipped Kitchen/Diner has everything you could possible ask for. Large lounge which easily seats 7 adults - combination of quirky sofa and chairs but very comfortable, downstairs WC, confined but does the job. Lovely games room if you have children Xbox, games and dvd galore.
Three good size bedrooms, although twin didn’t have much hanging space but plenty in the master bedroom so daughter was happy to share .
Hairdryers and towels provided in all rooms.
Information guide on property and useful local information can be found in folder on dresser in kitchen.
Good size rear garden with bbq and a lovely seating area. If you are taking your dog would suggest you close gates on driveway to secure garden as it wraps around.
Sensor lights in driveway and leading up to the back door.
A great location to explore the surrounding area, Cromer, Wells Next Sea, Hunstanton Old and New and of course a few miles from Sandringham.
Paul the next door neighbour and his wife are a lovely couple, they have a wealth of information regarding the history of the village and the Royals.
Roger the owner was on hand as and when needed, we had a little issue with the key safe, but a txt sorted this problem out, also recommended restaurants and places to visit.
Building work is going on next door - however this did not affect us. The builders arrived around 8am and were gone by 4pm and they didn’t turn up everyday.

"General cleanliness was sub standard."
The lounge smelt of dogs and we avoided this room for the whole week - we know pets are allowed but dog hairs on the sofa and we tried to use the hoover but this was entombed in dirt and dog hairs - the state of the hoover would have created more mess than cleaning it and to top it all the owner states "sofas are for humans"? The kitchen, appliances and cooking items were dirty and clearly had not been cleaned for a while. Dishwasher filter blocked with food? An uncared for property! The other main complaint was the building site right next door to property - morning skip delivery - workers vans parked in front of Chapel - crashing and general noise throughout the day - came home to some peace and quiet. It is the responsibility of the owner and/or Sykes to inform customers of any such works at the time of booking so we can make an informed decision. Images and video submitted to Sykes - pictures speak a thousand words.
Thank you for your feedback. Sorry you are disappointed. The carpets received a shampoo prior your arrival, new scented oils were added to the lounge. The Chapel has a grounds-person as well as a housekeeper to ensure it remains cared for as well as all exterior woodwork being repainted in July. We shall ask the housekeeper to wash the utensils and move them into the draw to avoid contamination whilst cooking.

"The property was fine."
Lovely building, in a lovely village. Although the road it’s on is a bit of a “ rat run” at times with it being a short cut to the coast. The chap next door was a true gentleman.
The decor wasn’t to our liking but then we’re all individuals. With are own unique likes and dislikes. The sofa in the lounge was very difficult to get out of. The drive was a little cosy for two cars. Beds were surprisingly comfortable. The house is technology rich.
The kitchen was a little cramp with very little space to store food. The low lamp and positioning of the table meant it was difficult to avoid hitting your head if you sat on the window side of the table. A door mat is needed in the kitchen. Nowhere to wipe feet on entering the kitchen. I used a mat from my car.
The on suite isn't actually one in the true sense of the word. Shower yes, no toilet though. The down stairs toilet is very cosy. Just enough room to do what needs to be done, tall folks could possible find it too cramped
We didn’t use the garden. Looked fine although you’d have to watch children with it being a raised garden with a good drop onto the path in places.
Overall we enjoyed our stay the area is wonderful and with in easy reach beaches and places of interest.
Thank you for your feedback. We've introduced a mat as suggested and bought a shoe rack. When looking at the property description it does clearly state en-suite shower and not bathroom, however the word en-suite has been removed. October is also prime potato season here in Flitcham and road noise will be unusually higher at various times in the months of September and October.
When delivering the experience to our guests we deciding to
move away from Magnolia and pine the sofa is from a well known chain advertising a laid back lifestyle consistent in our belief people on holiday wish to slow down. This is a Victorian period property full of character and charm that's part of its magic and away from todays square boxes and hemmed in gardens. Thank you for your feedback.

"The Chapel itself had been done very nicely, however overall it was a challenge with 6 adults."
The lounge was difficult to sit 6 people comfortably to watch TV. The sofa although looks fab it was very low to the floor and hard to get up from. The property also lists a downstairs cloakroom which again was difficult to use and for the bigger person would be impossible I realise its due to the design of the building,so not sure anything can change. One other thing which I think should be noted in the details was the garden,to access the main garden area was 2 very high steps or an equally steep grass bank, which again for the slightly less fit would be very difficult to use the garden, which is a shame as its very nice once you get there.
Although we would probably not book this particular property again I'm sure we will book through sykes again.
Thank you for your review. When we decided to decorate the chapel we had hoped we had catered for all, the sofa whilst low is a loaf sofa designed for a layback lifestyle, there are of course three armchairs that can be moved to accommodate guest requirements. We are sorry to note that you found the steps steep and the cloakroom on the small side, we believe the sympathetic conversion has kept the chapel original and in keeping with its original features.

We hope to welcome you back again soon.

"It felt more than just a self catering property."
Felt more like someone's home. The high standard of facilities such as the kitchen equipment, sound system, games room were all appreciated and made the stay feel special. Complimentary local craft gin was a lovely touch.

"The cottage was warm when we arrived, which was much appreciated, as we arrived late."
Have arrived at other places, and the first thing you have to do is work out how to turn the heating on ! It was comfortable, and very charming.

"In one word the Old Chapel is “Amazing”
We booked this as a last minute break and we were so glad we did as we had a wonderful stay at the Old Chapel and everything exceeded our expectations."
It is beautifully renovated with lovely decor and homely touches and exceptionally clean and well equipped and from the moment we stepped through the door we felt at home.
The surrounding area is lovely with lots of places to visit and lots of nice pubs and restaurants to go out and eat if you wish.
We shall not hesitate to book the Old Chapel again and hopefully in the very near future as we enjoyed our stay so much, we don’t normally go back to the same place but a revisit is a must for us.
Thank you and highly recommended.

"Very well kept house with lots of amenities."
You can tell the owners reinvest to keep the house up to scratch. Carpets and decor all looks very new.. Kids loved it also. Will be coming back.

"Beautiful decor really lovely and toasty warm loved the fire and gin samples!"
Beds lovely, cool barrista style coffee machine (take your own pods).
I’d suggest replacing the sofa cushions loosen off bath taps and get a new table football in the games room. Very rickety and rocky! These small things would make the place excellent ❤️

"A really lovely cottage in a great village location for seeing the area."
Lovely furnishing with great colours and decoration. Very comfortable and homely. The cottage is on a busy road, which when we arrived thought may bother us, however the road is busy at the usual rush hour times but quiet otherwise and we really didnt notice it all. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly come back again.

"THE ROAD THIS PROPERTY SITS ON IS A B ROAD BUT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW IT, ITS MORE LIKE AN A ROAD ON STEROIDS ITS SO NOISY YOU CANT HEAR THE TV AND THE TRAFFIC IS NOT JUST PEAK HOURS, ALSO HAD TO STAND IN ROAD TO STOP TRAFFIC TO GUIDE CAR OF THE DRIVE, THIS PROPERTY IS NOT “ ON A QUITE COUNTRY ROAD “ I LIVE ON THE OUT SKIRTS OF MANCHESTER AND WE LIVE IN A LOVELY QUIET PLACE, I WAS SO SHOCKED THAT WE HAD BEEN SO MISLEAD."
We are sorry to hear our property was not as tranquil as usual. This may have been due to it being harvest time when you visited. Norfolk is a farming county, and with Flitcham sitting on the working Royal Estate, there may have been a higher level of traffic during harvest season. The TV sound system should be enough to drown out any unwanted noise though.

"House is absolutely fabulous, everything you could need is available."
Sky q is very nice in a holiday rental. The complimentary gin made us go to the distillery and make a purchase and will be following the business. The cottage is good base for sight seeing and the beaches are wonderful.
The only gripe we have is the syke site it stated the house was on a quite road which is totally untrue, it is a very busy road all through the day and night

"We had a lovely holiday in The Old Chapel."
The accomodation was very comfortable for us (4 adults and 2 children). The decor, furnishings and finishing touches were all such high quality.
We were happy with the location as we were happy to drive to different areas. We went to on the Norfolk broads for day boat hire and Bewilderwood which are both about an hour away. Would also highly recommend Old Hunstanton and North beach at Heacham which were only about 20 mins drive.
Can't recommend the accomodation highly enough.

"Great location too numerous beaches, Chapel was well stocked with everything you would have at home to make it comfortable, extra’s like Sky TV and games room including games station and large TV."
Complimentary Gin and Tonic was a nice touch.
My only gripe was the bathroom situation upstairs as the main bedroom only has a shower no basin or toilet.
We had lovely time, the weather was great and we had use of a nice table and chairs together with a recently renovated garden area.

"A wonderfully quirky holiday home decorated beautifully."
No pine beds and magnolia decor here! It's high spec and first and foremost a home that you can walk into and feel like you are at home too. Great playroom for the kids as well - perfect for my 11 and 14 yr old boys - meaning we got to have the cosy fire in the living room all to ourselves with a glass of complimentary gin.
This is a fantastic location to explore Sandringham and the north Norfolk Coast.
