Very comfortable stay. Plenty of space and well equipped. Essentials provided for us on arrival and welcome notes. The converted chapel has been made into a cosy place, maintaining its character. We really enjoyed our stay.

The Nave was a great place for a few days break between Christmas and New Year for us and our little boy. The location, close to the seafront, was charming, and the accomodation itself was full of interesting nooks and crannies linking it back to it's past use as a chapel. The host was very responsive and had lots of helpful suggestions for what to see, do and eat in the local area. We also really appreciated the little welcoming gifts of tea, coffee, biacuits, bread and jam!
