Such beautiful surroundings, peaceful and quiet with access to the woodland walk and close to coast. The shepherds hut cannot be faulted, comfortable and cosy. Chris made us feel so welcome and we felt relaxed very quickly. Particularly good for us with our very reactive dog! Thanks so much, we would love to return.

The accommodation is clean, decorated very tastefully with everything you need to hand. The garden was fantastic for our reactive dog, as enclosed with fencing so we felt more at ease. The owner Chris was most helpful, made us feel very welcome, thankyou for our lovely welcome hamper too. Would highly recommend a stay at Oakford Farm, the woodland trail was lovely with it's babbling stream and moss covered Gnarly trees, so nice to loose yourself, though Chris has placed arrows on route so no fear of getting lost The coastline is beautiful, we visited a few dog friendly beaches, but sadly didn't get time to do them all, maybe next time. Thankyou again for a lovely relaxing stay.
