We must be doing something right! We have just had this lovely Trip Advisor review, from Sharon O’Rourke, one of our American guests on Debbie Abrahams’ knitting course last week.
She writes: “After 3 years of delays due to Covid 19, I was able to reserve a week long knitting workshop hosted by Debbie Abrahams at the Watermill. This venue is so beautiful and the hosts, Lois and Bill Breckon so welcoming. Not only was Debbie’s workshop more than I could hope for, but The Watermill so exceeded my expectations.
â€My sister and I enjoyed a beautiful room with en suite bathroom. We were lulled to sleep by the sound of the rushing stream outside our room and awakened by the sweet sound of lovely birdsong. While the resort is air conditioned, it was not needed.
â€All meals are provided and the food was 5 stars. There were several planned excursions offered including the local market day in Fivizzano, an excursion to Cinque Terre or Lucca, and a lovely morning of knitting at a monastery followed by a luscious lunch in the nearby gardens.
â€Bill and Lois Breckon are such warm and friendly hosts, and are supported by there 2nd in command and a lovely staff of local members of the community.
â€I hope you consider visiting The Watermill if you are near to Pisa, italy because for me it was the trip of a lifetime!!!â€
Thank you very much for those very kind words, Sharon. I hope that we may be able to welcome you and your sister to the Watermill again in the not-too-distant future.
