North Wales Self Catering cottage, Greystones Chapel, Llanrug, sleeps 10

Stunning chapel conversion. Fantastic family break.
We stayed at Greystones Chapel as a family of 7 at the end of January and we had a fantastic stay. The chapel itself is just breathtaking, it is beautifully designed with a well equipped kitchen and lovely, cosy seating areas. The views of snowdonia are amazing from the upstairs living area. Everywhere was thoroughly clean so I really don't understand the previous reviews on cleanliness as we found it to be spotless. The beds were all very comfy, we slept very well here. The children loved the pool table and we were spoilt for choice when picking a book to read from the large bookcase/library. The chapel itself is in a quiet area, which makes for a peaceful and enjoyable stay. There are so many things to do in the surrounding areas if you are wanting to explore, there really is something for everyone. Overall I couldn't find a single fault with our stay. We all had a fantastic time and would love to return in the future. I would definitely recommend this property if you are thinking about booking then go for it, you won't be disappointed.

Very disappointed
We were looking forward to our stay at Greystones Chapel after seeing the lovely pictures of it. The Chapel itself is a lovely building and very quirky, but unfortunately it lacked cleanliness and there were multiple issues with this property. There were a lot stains and dog hairs on the sofa and cushions and had a nasty smell. Behind one of the beds on the floor it was filthy, full of dust and had stains on the headboard. On two of the doors the handles fell off. On a few occasions we had to shout to the others to let us out from the other side of the door! The first bathroom when you enter the property was smelly (don't think having bricks on the floor helped as it absorbs all sorts and smelt damp) The shower also was too hot, even on the coldest setting which was very uncomfortable. If you stay here make sure you wash all mugs plates, cutlery and baking trays!! We had bought some pizzas on the first night to cook in the oven, and the baking trays had not been washed at all and were full of grease. They had been used and just put back without being washed up. The cutlery tray was full of crumbs, so again we washed that out and put all the cutlery in the dishwasher before we used any of it. The window panes by the stairs were filthy and had not obviously been cleaned for a very long time. On one of the pockets in the pool table there was a kids ball stuffed down it quite far, which was hard to get out and couldn't be used until it was removed. Such a shame, because this is really a beautiful place to stay, it just needs to be thoroughly cleaned after every guest has stayed and needs some attention to the things that need fixing.

AVOID - Completely unreasonable and inconsiderate host
Unfortunately, due to COVID, most of our party had to self-isolate (ie Follow official government guidance), the owner refused any request to move the booking (despite our suggestions of moving to an alternative off-peak date) or consider any alternative. We would have been more than willing to pay an additional fee to compensate for the situation but the owner wouldn?t even open dialogue with us ? What a farce! Given the current climate, a completely unreasonable stance ? Would recommend you look elsewhere for more accommodating and considerate hosts.

Wow! this Chapel is a must when looking for a break with friends & family,
Stayed here with kids and friends in sep 2021. Really easy to find close to amenities including a park for the kids right next door. The chapel its self is absolutely stunning, clever design means the bedrooms are located round the ground floor with a breathtaking, social, open plan first floor with modern kitchen, pool table, library and cosy tv area. From the first floor you get stunning views of Snowdonia, the area is quiet and peaceful but with lots to find when you go exploring! Absolutely stunning conversion, can't wait to visit again soon!

Beautiful chapel in a beautiful place
I stayed here with friends and our children and we had the best time. The chapel is stunning. It has been so syumpathetically restored and retains so many period features, whilst also having all the mod cons we are now used to. The children loved the snooker table and playing hide and seek in the spacious rooms. The kitchen is so well equipped. I loved a long relaxing bath at the end of each day and the separate spaces meant the adults could chill whilst the kids had their own fun. The owner was really attentive when I needed to ask a question and couldn?t do anymore to help us. I will definitely be back to this little gem. The area is just perfect. We tried paddle boarding on Llyn Padarn and even tried open water swimming. We visited snowdon, Greenwood's forest park and many other places. We cannot wait to come back next year.
