The Workshop is a wonderful, well-equipped beautiful home. Everything has been thought of to make your stay so comfortable ranging from the well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and the fabulous hot tub. It is not surprising that so many people rebook to stay here.

We had a fantastic stay at the workshop for our Anniversary. This is by far our favourite place that we have stayed. Clean, spacious, extremely well equipped. Literally couldn’t ask for better. My other half is Gluten Free and there was plenty of choice around the local area to get good gf meals, including pubs dinners, fish and chips and Indian takeaways. The hot tub was very nice, especially late at night looking at the stars. And the dog love the freedom of the paddock. We have already booked to come back and can’t wait.
