Chapel House is a distinctive stone chapel conversion located in the charming village of Bampton, Oxfordshire, a place familiar to fans of the television series Downton Abbey. This architect-designed property, constructed around 1778, showcases beautiful Cotswold stone beneath a stone slate roof. The interior harmoniously blends contemporary and antique furnishings, preserving original features while offering modern comforts. The highlight of the living area is its impressive double height, accentuated by four stained glass arched windows and a striking glass balustrade staircase that leads to the first floor.
The first floor accommodates spacious sleeping arrangements, including an en-suite master bedroom, a family bathroom, and a second bedroom with zip and link twin beds that can be converted into a double upon request. This thoughtful design ensures comfort for up to four guests. Additionally, the property boasts an attractive courtyard at the rear, providing a serene outdoor space for relaxation. The combination of historical charm and modern amenities makes Chapel House a special retreat for those seeking a unique holiday experience.
Located near the scenic North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Chapel House offers easy access to a variety of attractions within the Cotswolds. The village of Bampton itself features local shops selling produce and is in close proximity to larger towns like Witney and the city of Oxford, which provide a wider selection of dining and shopping options. Guests can explore the rich heritage of the area, including nearby highlights such as Burford, Bibury, Woodstock, and the grand Blenheim Palace, making it an ideal base for discovering the beauty of Oxfordshire.
Chapel House welcomes children over seven years old and allows one small well-behaved dog for an additional charge. The bedrooms are equipped with Velux windows featuring black-out blinds, although the first-floor windows are fixed closed due to planning conditions. While internet access is provided for recreational purposes, guests are advised that it may not be suitable for business use, and any issues with connectivity are not the responsibility of the owner or Cotswolds Hideaways. Overall, this holiday home promises an enchanting stay in a picturesque setting, steeped in history and natural beauty.
