Welcome to the Old Chapel – Slad, Gloucestershire

Discover the unspoilt Slad Valley in the Cotswolds where 'Cider With Rosie' was based. 

Luxury Self-Catering in a Converted Chapel
Not Your Average Cotswolds Holiday Cottage 

Welcome to the Old Chapel in Slad, Gloucestershire; a spacious converted Cotswolds church, with a stylish, contemporary interior. 

This characterful holiday home is set on the slopes of the Slad Valley, in the heart of the Cotswold Hills, one of the most picturesque and unspoilt locations in England. It is available for vacation holiday rentals and short breaks all year.

The hamlet of Slad, immortalised by Laurie Lee in 'Cider with Rosie', boasts glorious views, endless great walks and one of the best pubs in the Cotswolds, The Woolpack, just 300 metres from the chapel. 

Built in 1865 and thoroughly renovated in 2008, the converted chapel is stylishly furnished without being contrived. It offers very comfortable holiday accommodation for up to 10 guests (no more than eight adults), and is ideal for two families to share. We stay there for several weeks a year and continuously maintain the chapel to a high standard.

Home comforts include a large and very well equipped kitchen-dining room, a huge open-plan living space with open fire and separate TV areas for you and the kids. Throw in a quirky graveyard in the garden and the Old Chapel is a long way from your usual holiday cottage in the Cotswolds.

Surrounded by open meadows, woodland and rolling hills, with breath-taking views and walks directly from the front door in every direction, this is an ideal self-catering base for walking holidays or for visiting the Cotswolds, Bath and Cirencester. Rentals are available for a minimum of two nights.
