The Old Trentham Church | 2 Bedrooms | 1 Bathroom | Reimagined church right near town
Originally built in 1892 as the Wesleyan Church, The Old Trentham Church has been thoughtfully transformed into a soulful and beautifully restored retreat in the heart of Trentham. A short 300-metre stroll to the town’s celebrated pubs, cafes and boutiques, this is a place where history, nature, and design come together in perfect harmony.
Inside, soaring panelled ceilings, original timber windows, and crisp white walls set the tone. Find your perfect cozy escape, no matter the season. Sink into the oversized armchair with a good book or unwind by the crackling fire from the comfort of the leather lounge suite. The loft-style master bedroom overlooks the lounge, providing a peaceful sanctuary with serene garden views. . Downstairs, a second bedroom features two singles in a striking, verdant green—inviting relaxation and calm.
A brand new main bathroom featuring a claw foot bath and walk in shower as well as an additional powder room ensure comfort and convenience. The recently updated kitchen—located in the 1948 Sunday School addition—retains its historic charm, with a decorative fireplace, farmhouse table, bentwood chairs, and enough character to grace the pages of Country Style.
But it is the celestial gardens that truly set this property apart. A red brick driveway draws you through a breathtaking landscape of mature and unique trees, forming a magical canopy that only time can create. Be enchanted by maples, birch, and oak; weeping elm, box elder, and dogwoods; alongside paperbarks, hydrangeas, camellias, hebes and more.
This is a true seasonal garden: spring bursts with bulbs and blossoms, summer brings roses and vibrant cottage plantings, autumn delivers a kaleidoscope of red, gold and amber foliage, and winter reveals a quiet beauty with flowering hellebore and fragrant daphne.
With a firepit for cool Highland nights and beautiful sit spots scattered throughout the garden, The Old Trentham Church invites you to slow down, breathe deep, and experience the enduring magic of place.
