The Old Workshop is in a quiet countryside location, a short distance from Wadhurst village, just above Snape Woods and close to Wadhurst Park. It is the perfect spot to take a break; whether you are looking for a walking holiday, an action packed family trip or perhaps just a peaceful escape. The property is approached from our driveway and looks out on our garden. It has its own small enclosed garden with a gate in to our field, providing direct access to the footpath network. A BBQ and picnic bench will be provided in warmer months. There is parking for 2-3 cars adjacent to the cottage (including EV charger). The kitchen is equipped with electric Aga, microwave, dishwasher, coffee machine (nespresso), kettle, toaster, fridge, crockery, utensils and saucepans. Washing machine, compact ironing board and iron. At mezzanine level, there is a dedicated workspace / desk area which looks out over the field, together with a suspended catamaran net for relaxing with a book! For children - we have a highchair, toys, books, crockery, cutlery and travel cot available. The bedrooms can be set up as a double (king) room and a twin room, or as two doubles (kings). The twin beds can be placed under the eaves with curtains, or in the centre of the room (better for adults). Well behaved pets welcome - up to 2 dogs. We provide throws for sofas, but they are not permitted in bedrooms. The Old Workshop is approximately 100m from our house (Snape Clock House). There are two other properties in the vicinity - a very beautiful 15th century barn, and the impressive Snape House. Welcome pack of local produce including bread, eggs, butter and milk (additional treats for longer stays) - Please note that this is to help with the beginning of your stay - Breakfast is NOT provided daily. Yoga, sound healing, meditation, massage, tailored retreats, facials, manicure, pedicures and other beauty options are available on site via external providers. Please ask prior to booking.

We are based on site (but out of sight) a short distance away across the garden, in case you need anything at all. We are able to accommodate stays of up to 28 days at a time. If you would like a stay of this length please research the property and location online before contacting us.
