This extraordinary building retains its original soaring lines and timber charm, while modern touches make it comfortable and inviting.

At the entry end of the church, the fully equipped kitchen offers everything needed for simple and comfortable living. Featuring a fridge, freezer, dishwasher, microwave, portable induction cooktop, toaster, kettle, and Nespresso pod machine, it’s functional and tidy. While there is no oven, the space is well set up for short and long stays alike.
The separate bathroom is fully renovated and beautifully tiled, equipped with a shower bath , modern vanity, and a washing machine. It’s a fresh, contemporary space that contrasts beautifully with the historical character of the church interior.
