Wesleyan Chapel

Skipton, North Yorkshire

Wesleyan Chapel, located in Skipton, North Yorkshire, is a beautifully converted chapel built in 1884 that showcases elements of the Gothic Revival style. This stunning rural retreat is set on the Bolton Abbey Estate, near the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and can accommodate up to eight guests. The recent restoration of the chapel has successfully preserved its traditional features while incorporating modern conveniences, creating a harmonious blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort.

The interior of Wesleyan Chapel features a spacious open-plan living area characterized by traditional vaulted ceilings that enhance its historic ambiance. A central dual aspect wood-burning stove serves as a focal point, separating the cozy living area from the modern kitchen and dining space, which includes a large island and original church pews. The chapel offers four generous bedrooms, including a super-king that can be converted into twin beds upon request, and two double four-poster beds, each with its own bathroom adorned with heritage colors and patterns, complemented by underfloor heating.

Outside, the property boasts a serene garden patio designed to maximize the stunning views of the Wharfe Valley and Barden Bridge. The patio features a hot tub, perfect for relaxation while enjoying the unspoiled scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. Additionally, a spacious seating area and barbecue are available for guests to enjoy memorable al fresco dining experiences. It is important to note that access to the hot tub will be required by the Bolton Abbey Estates team for daily maintenance, with specific cleaning schedules on Mondays and Fridays.

Guests at Wesleyan Chapel also have the opportunity to access the nearby Devonshire Spa for a fee of £7.50 per person. Spa facilities can be enjoyed through 45-minute timed slots available from 7 am to 6 pm, which must be booked in advance. The spa offers various day experiences that include treatments, extended use of facilities, and lunch, providing an additional layer of relaxation for visitors seeking a comprehensive retreat experience.
