The best thing about a Residential Recording Studio is that you can focus 100% on what you want to record. No cars or taxis home or to a hotel and none of the distraction of day to day life. But you need to unwind a bit at the end of the day still.

Here at the Furnace we’ve created a comfortable environment for when the days recording is over. The accommodation at the studio can house 6 people comfortable and we also have properties within a few minutes walk if you need more room.

You have everything you need in 1 place so that you can cook clean and sleep 6 people. Have a look at our rates and you’ll see that just renting a hotel for 6 people would cost more than it costs per day here at The Furnace!

In the accommodation you also have a TV, DVD player, sound system, Nintendo Wii and a Super Nintendo Entertainment System if you want to get a bit retro.

We have Art spaces which you can also hire whilst you are here if you want to work on artwork whilst you are “in the zone” and there are no distractions. We also have a resident photographer who will take some snaps of you in the studio free of charge (unless you don’t want us to) and we have a dedicated photography studio if you want to get promo shots and album photography done whilst you are here.

The studio is set in just over an acre of its own land so you have plenty of space to enjoy the amazing weather (in the summer anyway) and we have built a barbeque pit in the garden which is where most people unwind after a good day of recording.

There is a forest within about 15 minutes walk and an excellent fishing lake (if you are into that sort of thing) about 10 minutes away. The weather is similar o Turkey in the summer (as in hot and sunny) and we get cold short snowy winters.

The costs of living over here are low. A good bottle of wine is about £1.20, a litre of beer about £0.80 and a packet of 20 cigarettes about £1.15! The food is cheap too! We have our own organic farm for ourselves if you want your food as fresh as it can get. We keep Chickens, Pigs and Goats on a separate bit of land a few minutes from the studio and we would be more than happy to show you round in the evening. We also brew our own Cider if that’s what you fancy.

If you aren’t into tidying up after yourself we can provide a house maid service to clean the accommodation whilst you are recording for a reasonable rate so you have one less thing to worry about.

We really have made The Furnace the ultimate relaxing/creative environment for your enjoyment.
