About The Old Workshop

The Old Workshop Monkton Combe holiday cottage in farmyard behind 17th Century farmhouse

The Old Workshop is a conversion of an old farm building in the yard of the ancient farmhouse which is our home.

Architectural details suggest the farmhouse dates back to the 17th century, with tree-ring dating of beams from the farmhouse suggesting the trees used for the beams were felled in 1662.

The farmhouse is recorded on Thorpe’s map of “Bath and Five Miles Round” 1742.
