About the home

The chapel has been designed by ourselves to create a stunning and contemporary design that we think captures the best from two different cultural styles (English & Norwegian) whilst still retaining many of the chapel features. this is an alternative self catering venue to bring family and friends for an active or relaxing holiday, short break, celebration or reunion. This is our dream place. It's designed to help us and others escape their stressful lives, to be active by walking or cycling in the area or just relaxing with the chapel facilities.

Guestbook for Kaber Chapel

The chapel is a wonderful place and I am sure we will be back, winter or summer its a wonderful place to stay especially if you are looking for something special. - The Nelson/Hardman families

The chapel was amazing, the photographs on the website don't do it justice. - Melanie Griffin

Ten of us rented out Kaber Chapel for a reunion weekend. I was greeted on the Friday night with the chapel beautifully lit with candles and it in pristine condition. The whole place is finished to perfection and could not have been more comfortable. The hot tub, the indoor bbq and the ipod dock playing through the inbuilt roof speakers were all well used and made it all the more special. Sky sports on Sunday for the football went down very well too! Thank you very much. We will most definitely be back! - Jennifer Affleck

Our group of 11 old friends had a fabulous weekend up at Kaber Chapel, luckily the weather was awful so we didn't feel too guilty about not going outside for three days! - Kathryn Busfield

The space is perfectly suited to chilling out and and we particularly enjoyed the hot tub (good for intense conversations!) and the sauna cabin. We also made use of the beauty treatments that can be arranged at the chapel. - Lynne Hockney
