  • Former Methodist chapel tucked away in the tranquil village of Woodgreen
  • Set within the breath-taking landscape of the New Forest National Park
  • Take a walk or ride along one of the many routes through the beautiful surrounding area
Property code: 56823

A quirky, former Methodist chapel, this property boasts superb access to the New Forest National Park. Ideal for families and friends, nature-lovers and keen walkers are afforded the most idyllic base from which to explore by day and relax by night. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms and with room for your two dogs, embrace the chance to get away from it all and lose yourself to tranquillity.

Ditch muddy boots and wipe paws in the entrance's utility room and head inside. If you've spent a day walking, the bathroom (located just opposite the utility) has a bath, perfect for soaking aching muscles and unwinding. For a brisk start to your day, there is a separate shower too. Further inside the property, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner takes pride of place. Here, tall ceilings lend a sense of grandeur, complemented by underfloor heating that in winter adds an especially cosy dimension. Pad over to the kitchen and begin culinary preparations for your evening meal; everything has been provided to help you create meals like you would at home. Clink glasses around the dining table and later let the dishwasher take care of the washing up. From the comfortable lounge, two staircases lead to separate galleried mezzanine bedrooms with privacy screens: a king-size and a twin. On summer days, you will find eating alfresco a tempting proposition most evenings, making good use of the BBQ and garden furniture.

Located within the New Forest, beautiful scenic walks are in abundance. Pick up one of the many trails nearby and wander below emerald canopies, accompanied by birdsong and the gentle crunch of your boots. For supplies, Woodgreen village itself has a shop and a pub (only a few hundred yards away), whilst Fordingbridge (3.5 miles) and Ringwood (9.6 miles) are home to cafes, shops and restaurants.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 king-size and 1 twin (both on mezzanine overlooking the lounge area) with privacy screens

Lovely place to stay, very clean, safe off road parking, and a short walk to the pub. Just one thing I hadn't appreciated when booking is although you can screen the bedrooms off the sound still travels. Fine for families but not so private if for two couples.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Chapel and Jennifer was very friendly. Inside is very dog friendly, but there is no secure area outside. However, good pub walking distance and a variety of fabulous walks on the door step made up for it. Great village with good shop too!

The location is wonderful and the chapel conversion is lovely. The host is a lovely person who made us feel welcome which was very much appreciated. Take your wellies as the New Forest is magnificent but very muddy in places and its lovely to squelch and roam unfettered by such things as the wrong footwear.

The Chapel was set in a beautiful part of the New Forest and had been expertly converted to create a comfortable and cosy living space. The Chapel was always pleasantly warm and has the benefit of an excellent pub just a couple of minutes walk away. The icing on the cake was the lovely owner Jenny.
