Location was central to were we wanted to go and visit customer service was very good
Cleanliness could have been better coffee machine was dirty and there was some dirty tea towels in the washingmachine that had been left.The main bathroom upstairs could do with a proper shower and screen not ideal holding the shower head when showing.
The bbq had not been emptied from the last visitors so we used disposable bbq trays.

Great place
I stayed here with all ages of my family and had a fantastic time.there are 2 great pubs in walking distance,the coast is not far away too.the actual barns are fantastic and everything you need is there have booked again for next year as had such a good time
A beautiful well thought out property. The barn conversions are set around a very idyllic courtyard. Each unit has a private garden and allows for a very personal experience.

The workshop
We really enjoyed the stay, the beds were very comfortable and everything was there that needed to be and all worked really well. It was a perfect spot to allow us to explore the Norfolk coast and also go to Sheringham Park. It was perfect short stay for our family of 5 and our Dog. Would happily come back and stay there again
A lovely converted workshop in to 4 double bedrooms holiday let.Great location, plenty of parking with well kept grounds.My family and I plus our two dogs had a fabulous time and would definitely return.

A lovely location for a short break in a lovely setting
We had a lovely family break at the Workshop. The house was very spacious and had everything we needed. The house was very clean and is set in a beautiful location. The check in process was simple and the contact before our stay was excellent. The location of this property is excellent. You are close by to beautiful parks and national trust properties and close to the coast. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely consider staying here again.

Lovely location in Norfolk
The cottage was very well equipped and in a great spot. Beds were comfy & there was plenty of hot water for all 8 of us to shower & bath. A second teapot would have helped make tea for 8! Plus some wooden spoons & we had to buy a cheese grater in a charity shop as there wasn't one & we left this for the next occupants. Really lovely to receive a welcome pack on arrival with milk, biscuits, bottle of wine, jam and cordial. House was quite private. Although residents were in adjoining properties we didn't feel overlooked. Garden was enclosed which was great for the dogs & there were stair gates so easy to stop them going upstairs. Lots of parking space available. Good washing machine & tumble dryer plus washing liquid provided which was very useful. Good location, quiet & surrounded by fields, lots of good coast nearby & several national trust properties within easy range. Great week!

workshop stay 6 to 13 May 22
good location for seeing the whole of North Norfolk - Cromer 10 mins away - if out all day can visit Hunstanton to the East and see the seals near Yarmouth to the West. plenty of good pubs for lunch, but it was clear the cost of drink and food has risen. 2 local pubs that could be walked to for evening meals. good value for money.
property had not been used during Covid, was clean and tidy and fully equipped for our stay. operating instructions for the oven need to be provided, managed to sort out in the end, not a major issue.
parking was good with vehicles secure. outside security lights were good. good private gardens with seating.
on a working farm, not an issue, nice and quiet. plenty of footpaths to walk around the farm and local area. met the farm owner in his office, open chat re history of the farm.the barn convertions very established since 2007. local road beside property busy but a main link between villeages, noise was not an issue.
on the cost for a week, appreciated that owner held 2020 price, our trip delayed 2 years re Covid. overall still good value for money for 6 adults.
has a CS on site, would return with our motorhome in the future.

Hi Terry
Thank you for your review. Your feed back is very important to us.
I am pleased to hear you enjoyed exploring the local sights and sampled the food at local pubs. Sorry to hear you didn't have instructions for the cooker but pleased you managed to sort it out.
Its good that you are thinking about using our camp site next time you visit the area.
Kind regards
Sue
Spacious property in a lovely location- close to coastal and lots of attractions. Only slight annoyance was the lack of hot water as this is shared across lots of properties- override by immersion heater was easy though and relatively quick to heat up.

Good position for North Norfolk coast , premium price for basic accommodation.
Very nice property, comfortable beds and good sized rooms, let down by a very small kitchen and fridge, and storage space for food for 8 guests , rusty shelving unit in wet room, greasy and rusted cake tin.
We all enjoyed our time in Workshop, children disappointed with the play area, covered in bird poo! so could not be used.
