Overall, the property provides a cosy and memorable stay.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is consistently described as spotlessly clean, with only one mention of dog hair on the stair carpet, suggesting a minor oversight rather than a persistent issue.
The location is appreciated for its tranquillity and privacy, although one review mentions it being on a main road with traffic noise. The remote nature is ideal for those seeking peace, but less so for guests looking for activities nearby.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the property cosy, but some have noted that the sofas and armchairs could be more comfortable. The overall atmosphere is relaxing.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the kitchen equipment and the secure garden for dogs. However, there were a few issues with hot tub cleanliness and a delayed kettle replacement, which slightly affected the score.
The property is praised for thoughtful touches like detailed instructions, a welcome book, and dog bowls. While gifts like a tea tray are mentioned, it's important to note that such offerings may vary and are not guaranteed.

The garden was perfect for our little dog to run around in. We enjoyed having a real fire in the evening. The only disappointing thing was that we couldn't use the hot tub at all as the water was not clean and was very cloudy when we arrived and it did not clear during our stay. Apart from the hot tub issue, we couldn't fault Richrose Chapel itself.

The garden is perfect for dogs but the fencing restricts any views. Cons. The furniture is not very comfortable nor is the bed. The Hot tub needed attention as the water was very cloudy, I donât think the chemicals were right, very strong smell of chlorine. As this was one of the main reasons why we booked this property we wonât be returning
