Other things to note
The Sanctuary Studio sits within a larger property, Fantail Estate, that includes a productive orchard. While the studio is fully private, at certain times of the year you may notice light orchard related activity nearby. Most of the time, all you’ll hear is birdsong and the breeze in the trees and evenings are incredibly peaceful and quiet.
