Greystones Chapel

Fantastic converted chapel, we had an amazing time at greystones.

A great open space upstairs with a lovely kitchen, living room and a fun games room with a pool table and a dart board. Lake Padarn is walking distance to enjoy lovely walkes and water activities. The bus service is great getting in and out of Caernarfon where there is loads of pubs and restaurants. Will certainly go back again.

Absolutely fantastic stay!

The location pleas perfect for our stay for climbing Snowdon. The chapel was a perfect social space for a trip away with friends. Amazing kitchen and dining area with a social games area too. Everything we had hoped for! Would 100% recommend for any friends or family spending time in snowdonia.

A beautiful converted chapel!

We had a great time at Greystones. We stayed as a family of 8 adults and 1 dog. Enjoyed the huge space the chapel provided. Lovely kitchen, two lounges were great if we wanted to do different things, games area was fab and we enjoyed a few nights of playing pool and darts! All the beds were comfortable and large rooms. Close to Llanberis too where we went kayaking, wild swimming and climbed Mt Snowdon. Would definitely recommend.

Only point to make,feel that the property is unsuitable for elderly very young children and pets because of the layout.

The wooden staircase could be a problem and I feel it should be specified in the description. Furniture a bit worn but that was no problem for us. Also shower door in boot room did not close properly.

We had a very enjoyable if too short a stay at Greystone Chapel.

Everything was as described and I had a small issue which was rectified very quickly and did not affect our stay. It just showed me if we'd had any other issues I knew they'd be promptly resolved. Great entertaining space, fantastic location for Snowdon which was why we had booked it. We were doing a charity hike up Snowdon. Would highly recommend a stay here and hope to be back.

A fantastic comfortable property which retains a lot of original features.

The lounge fire is superb although could do with a companion set to clear up the next day. We are already looking forward to returning next year

The chapel itself is an amazing home away from home, living area is quite spacious and lots of room to entertain a big group.

A few things that we found could have made our stay 5 stars are: 1. There was a smell coming from the main downstairs bathroom and adjacent ensuite shower room, so strong that we had to buy a room freshener and keep spraying every few hours. That needs to get checked, probably some leak in the toilets, as it would be difficult for anyone to use the downstairs living area or the two bedrooms adjacent. 2. The parking is very tight if two cars are packed, ideally only one car parked is better with the waste bins also lining up in that area as the vans keep getting into the cul-de-sac and cause issues. Apart from these two issues, the rest of the place is amazing and also the area around is perfect for getting out and about with local amenities.

My excitement soon went when I opened the door to the chapel it had an unpleasant smell I went in the bedroom near the front door and the smell was more unpleasant.

Just could not figure it out were it was coming from. From then on the more I look round the chapel the more it felt not to be clean, cobwebs, dust, stains on the carpet, chewing gum stuck on radiator, the cupboards under the sinks needed cleaning, junk in a drawer, it was not nice. We could not cook anything as it did not feel clean enough and the smell was still there. The lock on the back door did not work so had to wedge a chair behind it,not happy. The smell was still there all week still did not figure out what it was. It could be a lovely chapel. The location was great plenty of walking routes. Elaine

Great place for a big group, the log burner was a life saver after Storm Darragh knocked the power out.

Warm comfortable and with a wow factor.

We were looking for somewhere to host a family get-together, for my husband's 60th birthday celebrations combined with some mountain walking.

We booked Greystones Chapel for a week and it turned out to be perfect in every way. The open plan living areas meant everyone could be together, whether chatting in the kitchen, playing pool, or watching the rugby dowstairs in front of the logburner. The property is fully equipped and has everything you need on the catering and entertainment fronts.....we especially enjoyed the music sound system. Any queries we had were quickly dealt with by the owner. We definitely hope to return!!

We found the property very nice and very quirky, incredibly spacious and comfortable, the facilities available at the property was great, plenty of things to do and plenty of character.

It was a great place to stay and a great location close to a lot of great places to visit.

Unusually brilliant.

One of the best vrbo/airbnb places I have stayed at

Wow what an amazing Chapel.

The Chapel is stunning and lots to see and do around the area. Highly recommended.

We stayed at the Chapel to celebrate our friends 40th.

There was plenty of space for the ten of us, and was in a great location for doing Zip World and Snowdon. Would really recommend for a group, it had everything you need, as well as being clean and tidy, would definitely book again.

Really nice property and well maintained.

Perfect for a large group. Had everything we needed and was in a great location for Snowdon (15min drive) Radiators need bleeding as when heating was on they barely warmed up so was cold in evenings.

We have had a wonderful week in this beautiful holiday home.

It was stunning accommodation full of character and quirky additions, completely to be expected in a property of this age and style. Beautifully spacious with ample room for 8 of us with a great open plan layout. The information and photos about the conversion of the chapel was really interesting. We would certainly consider booking again.

An absolute gem of a property.

We try and have a weekend away as a family every year and Greystones was perfect. The size and layout enabled us to truly relax and the pool table certainly got a lot of use.

We visited the chapel for a family weekend away, what a lovely house very unique and nice place to stay.

It is a bit dated and could do with a freshen up however Amber was very attentive and got back to us straight away about any issues. Also great location if you want to explore the area.

Party of 8 adults, 2 children and a dog stayed at this amazingly renovated Chapel to celebrate my mother's 80th birthday.

As February, the heating was already prepared on arrival, which was such a nice touch. The Chapel itself is a masterpiece. Wide open, spacious rooms, bedrooms & kitchen. All appliances to cook, dishwasher and double fridge/freezer. Would definitely recommend 5*****

Such a beautiful stay.

A beautiful building.

The Chapel is a fantastic place to stay with loads of room we were a family of 7 adults one baby and a dog.

The bedrooms are all spacious with super comfy beds and ample bathrooms with added extra of a toilet on the upper landing. The Chapel was warm and had a lovely feel about it. There was plenty of entertainment options. My only one suggestion would be maybe a wooden gate at the top of the stairs for safety for toddlers, but other than that we had a fantastic stay would highly recommend greystones Chapel.

We loved Greystones Chapel.

It was beautiful and neatly tucked away with parking and a little yard. We were two families of 4 and two small dogs we had plenty of rooms, bathrooms and lounges to spread out. The selection of books, games and the pool table went down well with the children too. We were close by for visits to all the popular attractions and some lovely restaurants. There is a park and a Spar and some lovely walks behind the chapel. While there were a few issues with the property, fondly renamed Faulty Towers by us, we wouldn't hesitate rebooking or recommending Greystones to others. It was quirky and fun. It was unfortunate that the heating system ran out of oil which resulted in not hot water or heating and some water / oil leaks. However, the owner was really responsive and tried their best to solve from afar, and arranging plumbers and heating engineers to come out in an emergency. We hope that the problems were able to be fixed after we left. We were offered compensation for the inconvenience to our holiday. Lovely chapel, lovely village. Would happily return :)

Gorgeous place, really good links to around north wales!

Would really recommend for a group it had everything you need.

Everything was great albeit a few things.

Property was perfect for us 3 families with kids of different ages and a dog. There were a lot of cobwebs in the property when checked in. There were bird baby noises in the ensuite bedroom starting 4-5 am everyday and we couldnt figure out if it was coming from outside, seemed from in side from the 2 storage near the ceiling. It was quite annoying and sleep depriving, but we got used to it. Otherwise location is good- Spar on one side and a playground on the other side. And mountain climbing at the back. And lakes nearby to walk to. Owner was quite helpful.

The property was amazing and really well looked after and has all the facilities you could hope for to ensure a nice relaxing stay.

Nice big areas to relax and watch 1 of the 2 large screen TV's or to read a book from there impressive library, or maybe a game of pool. Nicely burner fire and all the bedrooms were ample big enough for the 3 families on my visit. Beautiful location, amazing property, nice helpful owner strongly recommend 5*****

A fabulous property, in a beautiful part of the country.

Plenty of space for three families and our two dogs! I would highly recommend this property.

Amazing stay at this wonderful property.

We stayed for a friends 40th birthday. Perfect space for a getaway for us.

Fantastic and beautiful holiday home.

Such a big space for all of us to enjoy. As from reading previous posts I was worried about the unfinished bits which to be honest there were a few bits like door handles not fitted properly ,no bathroom locks and a lick of paint needed in a few places but did it really effect our stay? Nope! The character of the building was much more prominent! We would stay again no questions asked .

Great place to stay thank you!

It’s an incredible place to experience staying in. There was so many bathrooms( great for a large family) and the bedrooms are massive too. We really enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend to others.

Having always previously been happy with sykes properties we were very disappointed with greystones chapel.

It had very dirty headboard thick dust around beds. We had to clean the cutlery before use. Door handles were not secured and came off. Could not use downstairs tv as it had no signal. The garden was a mess, weeds everywhere, rusty chairs with no cushions. Talking to the neighbours they said the owners are not interested in keeping property to a high standard like rubbish being piled up against back of property. This was a very expensive property and its the most disappointing we have ever stayed in.

My family and I have had a fantastic weekend staying at Greystones Chapel.

The house is amazing!! We were blown away by the space, the vaulted roof, the enormous full length windows that let in so much light. Absolutely beautiful property, loved the use of the original features from the chapel and the gorgeous wood everywhere. And the photo book of the restoration was a joy to look through. There’s lots of beautiful old furniture all different , which we loved, so quirky ! The sofas and beds were really comfortable, felt like home in no time. Lovely and clean, yes there some cobwebs, especially on the hard to reach places but it’s an old house and did not detract from the beauty of the place. All the areas we were using/living in were clean, bedding smelled lovely and good quality towels. Kitchen is perfectly well equipped and items were provided that were useful. We adored the pool table and games room. Bookshelves stocked with all manner of books, something for everyone. Fantastic sound system too, perfect for partying and two enormous tvs in the living areas. I cannot recommend Greystones Chapel enough, 5 stars from us! Although more expensive than I would normally want to spend on a weekend, this was a special weekend for us, so it was perfect to treat ourselves. The only wish is that we could have had longer there .

Greystones is a lovely converted chapel, a little rough around the edges as lots of things are not finished and parts just need a fresh lick of paint but we didn't mind and it was absolutely perfect for what we needed and we had a great family break.

If you are looking for uber luxury then Greystones is not for you but you are looking for a large unique space for a family break and don't mind the odd doorknob falling off then its fine.

The overall space in the Chapel was amazing, but when the cost of staying is relatively hight I'd expect a better standard of accommodation.

The finish is poor and needs a complete renovation. The location was great for what we were looking for but I definitely wouldn't pay that much to stay there again.

Okay property, but 100% not worth the amount of money we paid to stay there.

Doesn’t look as great as it does on pictures, little things like the toilet roll handle broken/cupboard doors, bulbs not working. Hadn’t been cleaned well, there’s big white dog hairs everywhere. Needs a new hob - awful to cook on.

The accommodation was impressive in appearance and suitable for large groups.

Location was good for access to Snowdonia. The finishing details were somewhat lacking. Door handles fell off when opening doors. There was a cupboard full of old food. There was a distinct lack of matching glassware. Only 3 wineglasses for a large group. Chair fell apart in bedroom when I sat on it..I’m only slim! Shower trays were bowed so that water pooled in centre. Also, at all other Sykes cottages we received a welcome pack. These are a nice touch after a long journey. Black bedding had white hairs / fluff visible inside covers. Many plus points are plenty of bathrooms. Comfortable beds. The games room. Kitchen a very sociable space. Overall it’s a fantastic place but some of the finishing details are a bit lacking. If these were addressed it would be an outstanding property.

Amazing property!

We had the best week away in this amazing chapel! The location was great and the Chapel was comfy, cosy and the design was awesome. The beds where so comfy. Only 2 things we thought of, we have a mad cockerpoo who joined us and she is a little crazy, if you have a mental dog or old dog, the stairs are a little entertaining. Our dog skidded down them a few times. Also if your dog is a princess diva like ours and won’t do her business on anything but the finest the grass, the garden is beautiful but lacking in grass. No complaints, mostly entertaining but just something to be aware of if your taking your 4 legged friends with you. There where 5 of us and we struggled a bit with cooking dishes, there where plenty of plates and bowls and mugs but not many bigger serving dishes or large bowls. But the kitchen was beautiful and we managed to make it all work with what was there. Thank you so much for a lovely week. We would happily stay in this chapel again.

A brilliant location and venue.

A little more rustic than in the photos but this added to the amazing character and charm of the converted chapel

Very sensitively converted chapel resulting in beautiful holiday accommodation!

Very well equipped kitchen and everything you need for a great stay ( the pool table was very popular!). Fantastic location for exploring stunning Snowdonia! We had a brilliant holiday!

Excellent accommodation for our group of friends.

Photos are an accurate representation. Very social up stairs, open plan/pool table/ seating area with tv/large table and great kitchen. It was perfect for what we needed. Few snags if you are an interior designer, but we loved the place. However, I do think it is on the expensive side. The history and photos of the restoration were particularly interesting. Key code for door is very convenient. Parking for 2 cars and the road was busy when we visited so we had to park a short walk away. We felt very at home here. The outside bins were full when we arrived so it would be helpful if they were emptied more regular or more bins were provided. Overall, we had a great weekend here.

Huge potential in this property BUT somethings not finished, others done poorly.

Excellent photography disguises the problems. Parking for only 2 cars max with very little space to manoeuvre - picture is very deceptive. Little thought given to the comfort of visitors and how they would use it. Nowhere to hang wet coats. Not well cleaned. Equipped on the cheap and vastly over priced.

The place is beautiful but, the cleaners had not done a great job; there was even a packet of 1/2 eaten crisps left in the side of the sofa.

Towels were not including bath towels, only hand towels, there was only one knife for cooking, the hob does not work well. We were not able to get into the place till 4pm and still had to leave at a normal time of 10am we should have been allowed to leave later. The iron provided was filthy and we had to ask for it. Very disappointed as the excessively priced stay did not reflect the lack of luxury and I would not be recommending this to anyone at this price

Lovely Chapel conversion, we all enjoyed staying there, a real unique experience!
