Beautiful Lodge. If you are looking for peace and quiet and relaxation with stunning views then The Workshop is ideal. Comfortable and clean and cozy. This was our second stay as we loved it and will most probably book again.

The Workshop is a great place to stay. Comfortable with a fantastic wiew accross the valley. One thing that could be improved is the directions to get there .The map shows it as being some way down the side road whereas it is right on the junction

A fabulous bolthole with spectacular views from every window. Luxury accommodation with very comfortable furnishings and a cosy log fire. Peace and tranquillity with amazing sunrises and sunsets to see. Owners friendly and unobtrusive but close enough to contact if needed. Nice area to sit out and listen to the birdsong while enjoying the views.
