Looking for something different? This unique accommodation in Derbyshire boasts a split-level riverside stone chapel with river views, created by the conversion of a large Methodist Chapel and Schoolroom, built in 1846 in the conservation area of the historic mill village of Milford in the wooded valley of the River Derwent.

This unique stone building has been skillfully converted into a large and most characterful holiday home, offering good quality accommodation yet retaining much of the Chapel’s original character and charm, with exposed beams, some original pews, marble plaques, chapel doors, and the old pulpit featured in the balconied lower lounge! The Chapel has a little raised lawned garden with picnic tables and a BBQ. In addition, there are two more acres of steep woodland for the use of nimble guests. It is full of bluebells in spring and is reached by a steep path from the garden.

There’s a 38ft beamed & galleried lounge, a Finnish sauna suite, a fully-equipped kitchen, a wealth of bathrooms and some en-suite facilities, and an extra upper lounge overlooking the River Derwent.

The area is noted for its Real Ale, and there are four great pubs within half a mile, including The King William Pub, which is just next door. There are shops and restaurants close by and easy street parking at the chapel gate and just down the lane.
