Savenac Cookhouse offers a beautiful setting for gatherings and holidays, making it an enjoyable place to stay. While the accommodations are nice, some improvements are needed, such as cleaning the fan filters and enhancing staff hospitality. Overall, guests appreciated the lovely grounds and had a great time during their visits.
A great place to gather! We have rented the Savenac cookhouse several times: for a family reunion, for a Girl Scout outing and for friend get togethers. The cookhouse is equipped with everything you need to spend quality time with your people. The upstairs kitchen/open room has cooking supplies, tables/chairs, a game cupboard and a bathroom. The downstairs has 9 beds and two additional bathrooms with showers.
