The Old Mission Church, a hidden gem of the Cotswolds

Set within an idyllic Cotswold village near Chipping Campden, The Old Mission Church has been extensively renovated and lovingly restored to create a unique and luxurious holiday retreat.
Ideally located for exploring the Cotwolds, this beautiful Church dates back to 1866 and features a stunning architect-designed open-plan interior, which perfectly complements the many original architectural and historic features of the church.
On entering the property, guests will be wowed by the beautiful stained glass window and vaulted ceiling. A modern designer kitchen with its large central island, flows into the living and dining areas. The church is packed with features including original doors, a stained-glass window, vaulted ceilings and a restored clock mechanism, stylishly complemented by bespoke and antique furniture, lighting and original artworks.
Bedroom one boasts an en-suite and is located on the ground floor, where guests will be sure to enjoy a good night’s sleep with its sumptuous king-size bed and cloud-soft pillows. A modern free-standing bath adds a touch of decadence to this beautiful room.
Climb up the bespoke glass and steel staircase to the mezzanine ‘Pod’ where bedroom two also enjoys a king-size bed and en-suite shower room. A glazed screen provides privacy whilst affording a striking view into the church interior.
Outside is a pretty south-facing and beautifully landscaped garden and seating area, complete with painted pews.
A secluded patio to the rear of the church overlooks stunning open countryside and is the perfect spot to enjoy heavenly sunsets.

Since opening in November 2021 we have had over 60 amazing reviews but they are not shown here as we are new to VRBO. Find our website to see our reviews and other information about the property, location and our tips on the area.

A 40th to remember
We booked a long weekend at the old mission church for my husbands 40th birthday and it will definitely be one to remember. The church itself was beautiful, so warm and cosy and the attention to detail was fantastic. Geoff and Julie were fabulous hosts, we were greeted with a lovely little arrival hamper with homemade sourdough bread and nothing was too much trouble. We had a fantastic weekend and look forward to returning!
