The Old Chapel - Stylish and Contemporary Holiday Home, Yorkshire

Nestled in the small village of Thornton, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, is this superb old Methodist chapel. Internally, the property has been renovated into a stylish and contemporary holiday home for small families and a group of friends seeking to explore this lovely rural area, with easy access into the thriving city of York, the Yorkshire Wolds and the East Yorkshire Coast. Entering the property, you will be greeted to an open-plan living space, with two plush sofas to curl up on and spend the evening catching up with your favourite shows, whilst the warming woodburning stove provides that extra bit of warmth. Walk through to the well-equipped kitchen, housing a range of contemporary appliances so you can easily rustle up a delicious meal for the whole family to be enjoyed at the dining table over a well-deserved glass of wine. Follow the steps up to the mezzanine-floor where you will find a spacious double bedroom, with plenty of furnishings for storing your personal items and serviced by an en-suite shower room with deluxe fixtures and fittings, whilst a second double bedroom rests on the ground floor, with a family wet room to support. You are surrounded by miles’ worth of landscaped gardens, perfect for exploring with long summer walks, whilst the Burnby Hall Gardens is a scenic park with two lakes and over 100+ types of water lilies. Allerthorpe Lake, with it’s open water swimming and regular triathlon events only 2 minutes away in the car. Pocklington Arts Centre is nearby, hosting a cinema, bar, and cafe for a spot of culture on your days out. Only 20 minutes away is the bustling city of York, hosting a wide variety of attractions, including the Gothic cathedral of York Minster, the 13th century Clifford’s Tower and The York Dungeon.
