An immaculate restoration by our friends Nick and Derek; this romantic Chirk cottage is one of the most romantic we've seen!
We're very happy to welcome this property back to our books for Autumn 2023 with a beautiful re-fresh!

"The interior of Y Capel is reason enough to stay in this estate chapel, stylishly refurbed by north Wales’s Inspector of Historic Buildings [for Cadw]: the antiques, moody religious paintings, Shaker kitchen and hymn board make it mag-shoot gorgeous. Open the door and you’re in the gardens of one of Wales’s most beautiful upland manor houses, with verdant views down the Ceiriog Valley." The Times
Restored by friends Nick and Derek who live in the upland manor house next door, Y Capel is an exquisite renovation with real quality and immaculate attention to detail. This corner of North Wales is stuffed with great days out - to nearby Llangollen, the UNESCO World Heritage site of Pontcyswllte, Chirk, Ruthin, Moel Famau etc.

We really enjoyed staying at the Chapel. The trek through tortuous lanes more than made up for the glorious views and peace and quiet. All we could hear was the gentle clucking of free range chick...
