The Old Chapel

Great place very clean, just a couple of minor issues, cant adjust heating without ringing owneres?

so we used the log burner and then we are asked for a donation for the wood, after paying £1200 for one week we would expect it to be all included. no drying facilities except outdoors but rained most of the week

The Old Chapel was just perfect for us, particularly the large utility/games area for wet clothes and dogs to dry off.

The kitchen was very well equipped & if you want a break from cooking the food at the Mason's Arms menu & food was very good, as was their Thursday's take away fish & chips and bingo night. Our only slight issue was with the fire alarm which we discovered went off if the hob was on without the extractor fan (even if you were just boiling an egg) - once we had both on we had no issue but it would have been nice to have had some instructions to that effect. Other than that we had a fab stay and would highly recommend the Old Chapel, the area & Sykes for anyone looking for a holiday venue.

Fabulous accommodation.

It was perfect for our party of 6 adults and our

Beautiful holiday home with plenty of space.

Well thought out rooms and beautifully decorated. My only issue was the bed in the master bedroom was very uncomfortable and could do with a new mattress, all other beds were very comfortable and cozy! Location was perfect for site seeing and the village it’s self is very charming and full of character.

A delightful place with a wow factor.

Everything we needed was to hand and easy to use. Of special mention was a truly escape proof garden so our dog could run free and we all enjoyed sitting out watching the birds. The location is a thriving village with amenities, fun walks into Scotland and down to the river. Only 15 minutes to Berwick for anything else.

This was such a lovely place to stay.

The village is beautiful and very friendly. The accommodation is extremely well equipped and we would recommend it to anyone.

One of the best places we have stayed.

Convenient location in a beautiful, quiet but interesting and friendly village. A striking property with everything we needed. Comfortable, fresh decor, clean and well stocked with modern kitchen equipment. Good for a couple and plenty of room for two dogs with the added bonus of a secure garden and a large garage/entrance hall to store outdoor kit and to clean off the dogs before entering the lounge and kitchen.

The Chapel conversion has created a spacious, comfortable and relaxing accommodation with all the facilities you may require, set in a lovely river side village

Love this Property WOW

We’ve just returned from a weekend at The Old Chapel in Norham, and it was nothing short of outstanding.

The accommodation is finished to an exceptionally high standard — spotless throughout, beautifully furnished, and full of thoughtful touches that make the stay feel special. The three bedrooms were immaculate and extremely comfortable, and the attention to detail across the whole property really stood out. The entrance area was perfect for our dogs, giving them plenty of space to sleep and play, and it doubled as a really practical spot for storing food, drinks, and all our outdoor gear. The garden was another highlight: very private, a real suntrap, and a lovely place to relax. The whole setting made the stay feel peaceful and restorative. Norham itself is a gorgeous village. If you’re looking for somewhere quiet and friendly, you can’t go wrong. It’s ideally located too — around 25 minutes to Kelso and 15 minutes to Berwick. The village has a great play park for kids and two very nice pubs with outdoor seating for good weather. We especially enjoyed the Victoria Hotel, where we had a fantastic meal on the Friday night. Their cakes during the day are well worth trying too. Overall, The Old Chapel is a superb place to stay, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

This property is absolutely stunning and collectively we all agreed the best holiday rental we have ever stayed in.

It is spacious, beautifully decorated, very very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The kitchen is very well equipped, lots of cleaning equipment, tea coffee etc, air fryer and the welcome bottle of wine and easter chocolates were a lovely touch. The bedrooms were all really comfortable with lots of wardrobe space and the table tennis in the garage was a real hit with the kids. The village itself is lovely, two great pubs and a lovely butchers and bakers all within walking distance. We would 100% recommend this property and hope to return in the future.

A beautiful well equipped cottage , beds very comfy, the cottage is in a lovely village and would highly recommend the butchers , the villagers were very welcoming and helpful, we had a takeaway from the masons arms which was good , the Victoria hotel had a warm welcome but only did food at lunchtime, we visited chain bridge honey farm which was nearby and well worth a visit, it was one of the best cottages we have had in a lovely setting and we are sure we will be back in the future

An excellent and charcterful property with the soaring ceiling of the living accommodation - made cosy by the fire and underfloor heating.

Fully equiped kitchen with plenty of storage too. A great base for a relaxed and comfortable break. Bedroom heating was a little less predictable but still comfortable.

The info book needs some updating eg I suspect someine files a page without filking in details of nearest GP / Hospital etc.

Probably ditto re heating - it says controlled by an app on owners phone,we later found 2 thermostats. But there was a rather marked temp difference between master bedroom (quite cold) and other twin rooms. Kitchen equipment really good. Though lid missing for steamer. Very good selection casserole dishes / roasting tins / knives etc. Even an air fryer - though this is in the 'vestibule' for want of a different word. 2 fridges, one is huge. Found the mop / bucket, couldnt find a dustpan though plenty of long handled brushes. Iron / ironing board, decent airer, vaccuum etc. Very decent supply of logs for log burner Village shop had far more veg than i expected, butchers is brilliant. Victoria hotel lovely for lunch. Only visited the Masons on last day for bacon sandwich - which was lovely. Its obviously had a lot of investment, the front looks like a typical 'mans' pub, bit dark, lots of fishing rods and local photos, lots of bottles. The lounge / restaurant are totally different - bright, airy and newly decorated.

The Old Chapel was a truly amazing place to stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week and would highly recommend other families to stay there, too. Everything was so well considered and the facilities and equipment were extensive. Thank you for a superb accommodation in a lovely location.

Fantastic accommodation in a lovely village.

Comfortable, clean and great for the dogs too!

Ideally located for exploring the surrounding area.

Norham is a lovely village. The Old Chapel has the best equipped kitchen by far of any properties we have rented. The only negative is that the in-house documentation was sadly lacking in any contact numbers. We know the area very well and so this wasn't an issue for us, but for people visiting for the first time, it could cause a problem. We would happily visit again.

We have stayed in quite a few properties with Sykes and this one is up there with the best.

It is tastefully decorated and everything you need is provided. It is also well placed for visiting surrounding areas or if you prefer to stay in the village the locals are extremely friendly. Only one drawback was the fact that we had to contact the owner to ask for the heating to be turned up downstairs as it is worked from the owners app, we found this a bit awkward whereas in other properties we have just turned it up if we were cold, to be fair we visited at a week when the temperature dipped considerably and the heating may not have been set to accomodate this. When we called someone did come within 15 minutes, played about with it but it didn't make much difference, this was for downstairs as upstairs was lovely and warm. There is a log burner downstairs but when you are going out it's not right to keep it burning. Overall though this is a great place to stay.

The best holiday let so far, and I have been to many , masons arms is a good place for food and a cracking pint of landlord.

Would highly recommend, good supply of logs for the fire and well worth leaving a contribution towards the logs . ++++

We stayed for 4 nights and absolutely loved it.

The Old Chapel is a stunning house with plenty of space to unwind after long walks. The entrance area is excellent — especially for the four-legged ones to cool down after a day at the beach! The bedrooms are lovely, each with its own en suite, and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need to make a delicious dinner. The whole place is tastefully decorated, and the atmospheric lighting makes it feel extra special in the evenings. The garden is enclosed (mix 4ft/5ft), which was great for the dogs. The neighbours at the back do require occasional access through the garden for putting bins out, but it wasn’t an issue — we just made sure all the gates were closed before letting the dogs out. The photos really don’t do this place justice — it’s even more beautiful in person. We’d definitely recommend The Old Chapel. Thanks Kirsty for sharing your beautiful home.
