I made further progress. Firstly I followed the instructions in
https://linuxconfig.org/error-2003-hy000-can-t-connect-to-mysql-server-on-111-solution
changing the bind-address in mysqld.conf and restarting mysql

then from

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19101243/error-1130-hy000-host-is-not-allowed-to-connect-to-this-mysql-server at bookmark 276

I ran
CREATE USER 'root'@'ip_address' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'ip_address';
and
CREATE USER 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

At this stage I could successfully connect to the remote Mysql instance with the command
mysql -uroot -p -h<hostid>

but I still get the exact same tunnelling error when trying to connect via Mysql Workbench.

The SSH hostname is the ip address of the Mysql server host and the SSH username is root. The Mysql hostname I have as 127.0.0.1 and the port 3306 and the username is root.
