About this house rental

Summary:
A wonderfully converted former chapel school, Dunsley Chapel accommodates up to 10 guests across 5 bedrooms. Sitting proudly above the village green, this holiday home offers something extra special - with sea views, large enclosed garden areas, and the perfect terrace for dining al-fresco.

This exceptional building has been renovated to a 5* standard, allowing its character to flow through the property perfectly.

The Space:
Upon entering the chapel through its original doorway you are met with an expansive space, perfect for family gatherings and special occasion getaways.

The ground floor features a large open plan living, dining and kitchen area. The living room features three plush fabric sofas, a 65” flat screen, smart TV and two solid wood coffee tables. The large picture wall and faux plants bring a modern style to the chapel while the arched windows and overhead beams remind you of its characterful past.

The kitchen and dining area is the perfect spot for entertaining. The well thought out space allows guests to cook, eat and socialise in one place. The 10ft dining table is surrounded with one solid wooden bench and 6 mint green faux suede dining chairs.

The kitchen features a large range cooker, two refrigerators, a freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster, dishwasher and coffee machine. Whether you’re staying for two days or two weeks, you will have everything you need for that feeling of home.
Just off the kitchen you will find the downstairs WC and shower room.

The Chapel is home to five bedrooms. You will find one master suite and twin room on the ground floor. The master is joined with a full bathroom featuring a bath with an overhead shower, WC and basin. The Twin room has use of a shower room on the ground floor.

On the first floor, you have a king room with a French-chic style to it. The second bedroom is a bunk room, perfect for the smaller members of the party. The third and final bedroom on the first floor is built into the loft space of the chapel. With a stylish, luxurious style this bedroom is the perfect escape during your stay.

Guest Access:
Guests have access to the full property. The keys to the property are accessed via a secure key safe and full details will be provided shortly before your arrival date.

There is private parking available at the property for up to four vehicles depending on size, and there is also additional free parking nearby.

The Neighborhood:
The small hamlet of Dunsley is quiet and relaxed. It is perfectly located on the North Yorkshire coast - just a short 20-minute walk to Sandsend and less than 5-minutes into Whitby by car. Dunsley sits very close to the Cleveland Way so you can uncover a haven of woodland and moorland during your stay.

Sandsend sits at the end of almost 3 miles of sandy beach, west along the bay from Whitby. Watch the surfers bob in the distance as you stretch your legs along the shores. Soak up the sea air as you feel the sand beneath your toes.

Head into Whitby and explore everything the seaside town has to offer. Visit the infamous Whitby Abbey which went on to inspire Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. Try the local catch of the day in one of the many fish restaurants, enjoy a drink in a cosy pub and feel nostalgia in the arcades which line Pier Road. You can’t miss the beautiful Blue Flag West Cliff beach which is complete with colourful huts on the promenade.15

For a more vigorous expedition the beautiful North York Moors are on the doorstep, with a huge range of hikes and scrambles available, or visits to the little villages dotted across the wild landscape – Goathland is particularly well-known because of its use in the TV series Heartbeat – before returning to the haven of Dunsley.

Getting Around:
You can explore Dunsley and the surrounding small villages on foot and the coastal village of Sandsend is just a short 15-minute walk away.

Whitby train station is around 5-10 minutes away via car so villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

Other Things to Note:
We welcome 1 small, well behaved dog.

We’re always available for our guests so please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

A lovely property in a great location, very peaceful but close to Sandsend and Whitby. We are a family of 6 adults and 3 children (3 generations) and we all enjoyed our stay. Lots of kitchenware and plenty of seating for us to eat together and relax on sofas. The local roads are very narrow and not pedestrian friendly so I’d recommend driving the short distance to the beach. 4 stars given due to the shower upstairs and in the en suite being very difficult to switch off- they need attention. Also most importantly the twin room downstairs had a pungent cat smell which luckily didn’t seem to bother my granddaughters who slept in there but it did the rest of us when it drifted into the living area. If not for this it would be 5 stars from us!

We loved the house and had a great few days away. We were happy with the location and the decor was nice. Our only complaints were the wifi only worked in 2 bedrooms and nowhere else in the house, meaning the TV also didn’t work. There were also some cleanliness issues; some Kitchenware was dirty, including a baking tray with old food in it (including a whole sausage!) and lots of plates/dishes etc with food caked onto them, a crate of beer left outside the back door and outside lights not working. We also found various items in drawers showing that they had not been cleaned out- a half empty packet of sanitary towels in one bedroom drawer and a half eaten chocolate orange in another!

Idyllic location, the chapel was great, a superb place for the family. However a lack of basics, soap, washing liquid and shower get made the 3 mile trip to Whitby essential and the first thing we did. Plenty towels supplied and neatly on beds but only one dish towel. There was a random feeling about the crockery and cutlery. Plenty of it but all mixed and unclear how many of each. So a fantastic property and location. The setup could be more professional but I’d book it again for the same family group, they all loved it.

We cannot express how wonderful our stay here was! Beautiful property inside and out! It was so quaint, quiet, meticulously clean throughout, beautiful views, updated appliances, dinnerware, cooking implements and very spacious bedrooms and bathrooms! We felt right at home in Dunsley! Communication with the host was timely and so very kind! The location is superb and the views are breathtaking! We hope to be back for a longer stay in the future! Thank you so much for everything!

We was all very impressed by the property, extremely good standards in the property, in pretty much had everything all modern, nicely decorated, everyone of us was well impressed with everything in and outside of the property The location was perfect for me nice quite little village but only 10mins drive from Whitby The only thing I would criticise on is the WiFi wasn't very good or easy to connect to but other than that we loved it and would imagine we will try return later in year 👍
