    “Oakhurst is really well-equipped, comfortable, spacious and ideally located.”

    The four of us had a fab weekend, and enjoyed having a bedroom and a bathroom each. The front door lock was temperamental which meant I nearly had to call for help on one occasion, but brute force and ignorance saved the day. Also there are many MANY coffee makers but only one small teapot. Overall we had a brilliant stay, and intend to come back again.
