Om boendet

Hus med stor period ligger i forntida skogsmark i Exmoor National Park nära Lynmouth

Oaklands är ett imponerande 8-sovrum, traditionellt stenhus med en sovplats på 14 sovplatser, belägen mellan den öppna moor och den spektakulära norra Devon-kusten. Oaklands ligger utanför den lantliga byn Rockford med sitt prisbelönta lokala värdshus där måltider kan avnjutas, och har magisk utsikt över East Lyn River, som faller dramatiskt till havet på byorten Lynmouth bara 4 miles away. Beläget i 1. 5 tunnland med hedlandsträd och skogar, som gör utmärkt utforskning, och en kaskadström och avvecklat vattenhjul från dess tidiga viktorianska förflutna, är Oaklands omgiven av ett av de få kvarvarande områdena av antika ekskogar i England och har gott om vilda djur (utsett område med enastående naturskönhet och plats med särskilt vetenskapligt intresse).

Renoverat till moderna standarder med modernt möbler i hela, men med sin ursprungliga karaktär har Oaklands ett stort vardagsrum med aspekt över floden och ekbjälka med Inglenook spis. En stor separat matsal med ett Arthurian runt bord med plats för upp till 14 har utsikt över fastigheten och det mycket rymliga och välutrustade moderna köket erbjuder också en mindre frukost / matplats. De åtta sovrummen, många med utsikt över floden och dalen, och fyra badrum är planerade över två övre våningar. Det finns också ett litet studie- / spelrum som kan användas som ett område för partiets yngre medlemmar. Oaklands är stort och rymligt för en familj, eller erbjuder flexibelt boende för familjesammanträden eller grupper av vänner och är en underbar landsbygdens reträtt oavsett vilken tid på året. Parkering för 4 till 5 bilar. Säker ladugård för lagring av cykel / kajak / surfbräda. Bordtennis, bordfotboll, brädspel och Wii-spelkonsol finns tillgängliga. Husdjur är välkomna.

Omgiven av prakten Exmoor är Oaklands vid toppen av Exmoors vandringsleder, cykelvägar och huvudvägar, och erbjuder verkligt inspirerande promenader och åk längs floden, över trädbevuxna dalar och mot havet i överflöd. Många berömda skönhetsplatser inklusive Watersmeet, Porlock Weir och de två kustnära orter byarna Lynton och Lynmouth med deras berömda klippbanor, turistattraktioner för alla åldrar och hundvänlig strand ligger alla inom korta natursköna enheter. Storslagna höga klippor och dold sand och singel vikar finns längs den dramatiska Exmoor kusten medan breda sandstrandar vid Woolacombe och Croyde ligger inom en timmes bilresa. Ridstall, terrängcykling och terrängcykling, kajakpaddling och fiske på East Lyn och landsport är alla i närheten. Traditionella Exmoor-pubar och restauranger med god mat är inom räckhåll. Äventyrscentra, golf, surfskolor, Exmoor Zoo, en ångbana och besöksattraktioner inomhus finns längre bort. Oaklands och Exmoor erbjuder något för alla året runt.

Wonderful house

We had a delightful week at Oaklands, there's not many places where you can come out of the house and walk in any direction (ok - mostly up) and be in the middle of beautiful countryside without seeing another person on your walk. From the bats in the barn to the 31 different species of birds we heard, the sheep in the garden and the spectacular starry skies Oaklands puts you right in the middle of nature. Even on rainy days there was plenty to do, both in the house and outside. Peter was an excellent host and everything in the house worked without issue - the only thing it would benefit from is a coffee machine. We were sad to leave.

Large property set in beautiful surroundings

Communication and check in was easy and simple. We were provided with clear instructions on how to access the property and the amenities available in plenty of time. The property itself is large with plenty of room. It's quite eccentric and old but comfortable. Some areas were not as clean as we would have liked but it did not ruin the experience. The beds were not the most comfortable but we managed for a few nights. Location is stunning. Amazing walks and local pub. We also went house riding at Brendon Manor and i could not recommend this more highly. Excellent and a must for both adults and children.In all this is a great choice for a large group. We were 3/4 different families and fitted perfectly. The location is stunning with plenty to access in surrounding area. Had a small kitchen bundle which was a nice touch along with plenty of dishwasher tablets, soap and toilet paper. Also plenty of board games etc and table tennis. It's the small things that make a difference. The electric car charger is also great for convenience as the nearest charger is about 20 minutes away and a low voltage. Would recommend a visit.

Fantastic house in an idyllic location

A family group stayed for three nights in October and had a lovely time. Plenty of room for us all and bedrooms to choose from. We all found it very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was very well equipped. The Rockford Inn really was a 5-minute walk away and there were some lovely walks on the doorstep. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Perfect Location for a Family Christmas

Large comfortable house in a valley with views over the river at the bottom of the valley. Lots of room for everyone with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The host was extremely helpful in responding quickly to emails and calling us on the day of arrival to check that all was OK. Minor drawback is the steep path to the house (but worth it for the view!). Would definitely recommend if you want a comfortable get away from it all stay.

Family holiday

Very interesting location which took a bit of exploring. We lived the surroundings and the house and fiynd lovely places to go rriymd about. The weather was difficult to gauge as we learnt that it seemed less sunny in the forest than up the hill! We thought there were 2 en suite badrooms and struggled a bit to dry clothes at first but small snags on a lovely holiday.

Perfect Getaway for a large group.

What a great place for a large group to stay. We were a group of 10 friends who based ourselves here for a long weekend. The location is idillic in the bottom of the valley next to the river…it even has its own waterfall and former mill. The parking is ample with an EV charging point. The house was spotless and the kitchen extremely well equipped. We had great weather so we’re able to also take advantage of the BBQ. If you didn’t want to cook, the 2 local pubs (Rockford & Staghunters) within walking distance both served food and were very welcoming. There was a games room including a games console (although we were all a bit old to use it 😉) and plenty of things to entertain kids if you went as a family. Communication from the host was excellent and made the whole experience easy. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Whole Family Holiday.

My first impression was of surprise to the location. I don't remember reading any warning about anyone having mobility issues. The pathway and steps are very steep, and the surface and steps could be better. I did have a fall, thankfully I didn't hurt myself. Perhaps a hand rail. Inside the property you could say was well lived in. We wouldn't expect it to be clinically clean but it could so with a little spruce up. The Fridge wasn't the cleanest, with black bits floating in the water dispenser. Hairs found on beds; the sofas needed a hover. My daughters were disappointed with the cleanness of the kitchen cupboards. Saying all that we had a nice holiday to celebrate my 70th Birthday.

Annual Autumn short break with friends

We enjoyed our stay after an initial poor experience. Specifically the cleaners were still on site @ 4.30 PM , so the floors were all very wet and the heating wasn’t working so the house was very cold. To be fair the caretaker did call out a plumber who fixed the heating, but advised us not to use the hot water until the following morning. Not the end of the world , but not a great experience given we had been playing golf in the afternoon and needed showers. The house is a great space for a larger group and is well equipped. The location is fantastic if you want rural peace with amazing vistas and just perfect night time stars

A very pleasant and well equipped home

We have just enjoyed a family reunion/holiday. Oaklands is a period home and the owners have gone to a lot of trouble to stock it so that it is well supplied with games and equipment for large mixed age groups. We very much appreciated the large round table in the dining room which seated our party of 7 adults and 6 children ages 2-9yrs. We ran into trouble when the stairgate gave up on us. We texted the owner in the evening and by early the next afternoon a replacement had been delivered, for which we were most grateful. The owners run the house in an eco friendly manner and we found supplies of suitable washing and cleaning materials provided. We were short of dishwasher tablets and couldn’t purchase these locally. We didn't think to contact the caretaker and sourced these some way away. All other supplies were quite sufficient for our needs. Perhaps of note to other mixed age families. the route to the front door is up a steep incline and as the owners mention is not suitable for those with restricted mobility or a buggy. Also, the hillside (lovely) garden is only suitable for primary school aged children with adult supervision (again, as mentioned in the house description). There are several areas in the garden with steep inclines. The surrounding area offers much for families to do and we barely scratched the surface. We therefore had a wonderful time at Oaklands The house is welcoming and comfortable and the owners have worked hard to make it so.

Beautiful Weekend Away

We love this area of Exmoor, it is absolutely beautiful, with fantastic walks along the river. Oaklands was perfect for our stay with our extended family and the children had a fantastic time, with plenty to occupy them, within and without the house. Peter, the owner, couldn't have been more helpful and accomodating. The house is beautiful and well stocked with everything you need. I would highly recommend a stay here. We can't wait to visit again.

Wonderful house for large groups in North Devon

The house was precisely as described in the online listing. Loads of room for our group of 12 adults, many bathrooms, excellent amenities. Everything worked, we had some fabulous family meals around the big table. The house is very well equipped, and we had everything we needed. Lots of nice walking within minutes and the surrounding countryside is gorgeous. This was a great base from which to explore the North Devon coast. Our group, ranging in age from 5 to 76, found plenty to do. The host was responsive, helpful and very charming. As warned in the listing, cellular reception is poor in the valley, but wifi was good, and there is a landline for calls. We enjoyed our stay very much and would most certainly go back.

Om värden

Peter Sammonds är värd

Värdens profilbild
We are a professional couple with two grown children. We travel extensively, but our favourite place in the world is Exmoor. We had been visiting for many years before we bought Oaklands and particularly loved the “Doone Valley”, the location of R.D. Blackmore’s Victorian romantic classic Lorna Doone. The Oare Church where Lorna marries is nearby Oaklands!

Varför värden valde detta boende

Oaklands is in a spectacular location, set in one of the few remaining areas of ancient woodlands in England, in the heart of Exmoor National Park, with magical views overlooking the East Lyn River. It is fairly isolated, but a 5 minutes walk from a traditional inn. Exmoor is an International Dark Skies Reserve, meaning the nights seem really dark but with amazing views of the night sky stars. Walking, horse riding, bike trails, kayaking and fishing are all on our doorstep. And it is such a friendly and welcoming area.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Oaklands is a large spacious period house with its own stream and waterwheel in the grounds, dating from its early Victorian heritage as the house for the wood mill which built Lynmouth. The steep terracing, tumbling stream and the feeling of a house deep in the woods, gives Oaklands its magical feel. But it is renovated with contemporary furnishing and modern electronic entertainment too, making it perfect for large gatherings of family or groups of friends at any time of the year.
