Guest Highlights - Recent reviews of The Old Workshop, Monkton Combe

The property was beautiful...loved the balcony from the loft bedroom with a view of the orchard where we saw deer and rabbits. Thank you for the thoughtful touches and being there to welcome us.
The Old Workship was a perfect place to return to after a day spent in Bath....quiet and peaceful.

Everything was just perfect! The hosts are lovely and welcoming, and The Old Workshop is done to perfection and offers everything you need and more. The area is peaceful and quiet yet very close to Bath. We had a great time and will definately return!

Beautiful property and location with great views. Perfect for walks. Quiet and ideal for a getaway but still within easy reach of Bath and surrounding areas. Property was wonderfully clean with all the amenities you could need. Definitely 5 star experience and would happily stay again.

A beautiful stay at The Old Workshop. Such lovely surroundings just a short drive from Bath. It was great to experience the city of Bath but then coming back to a peaceful accommodation that felt just like home! It was spotless but super homely and would highly recommend. Alison was super helpful and friendly right from booking to us checking out. Will definitely be staying here when next visiting the area! Thank you.

Beautiful accommodation, spotlessly clean and Alison had thought of everything we could possibly need for our stay. Very comfortable in a peaceful location but very easy to get into the city. Recommendations for places to eat etc. were very welcome - we tried one of the local pubs which was a highlight of our trip. We would definitely stay again - thank you Alison!

Beautiful cottage in fantastic quiet location, but also so easy to get into Bath! Felt like a little bit of luxury for a girlie weekend away……..perfect!

We had a wonderful week at the Old Workshop. It was exactly what we were looking for; peaceful, with walks on the doorstep and near enough for a short drive into Bath.
The indoor space was perfect for the two of us, with everything we needed when we decided to stay in.
All in all, perfect.
