Sunset Cabins at the Oaks Woodland Retreat

Second stay at sunset cabins, great value for money and very convenient. Loved watching the horses in the nearby field. Very relaxing place! Only thing I would say is that some basic instructions for the combi oven would be helpful as we were never sure if we had the right setting! 😂 and perhaps some softer pillows as they were on the hard side. Personal choice of course. Overall def come back!

Lovely little cabin, very well designed to make the most of the space. Had everything you need from.firelighters to frying pan.

We chose to stay here for a different adventure, rated 10stars in **********. -Beddings were wrinkly with make up stains. Mattress not comfortable. -toilet seat is broken. -very mouldy plates so I have to wash all of them, including the bowls and utensils. -booked for 3 people but they only provided 2 towels. -only 1 toilet roll provided (we stayed 2nights). They only provided like 3 small pieces of wood in the cabin. We weren’t planning to use it but the small heater in the corner of the cabin was not enough(it was like 4 to 5 deg that night) to warm the whole place so we used the wood on our first night. When we saw the housekeeper the next day we asked if we can have more wood and she said there’s a small bin outside and there should be some there so we went and checked but found only 1 piece so she said she will tell the owners(nothing was mentioned about we should buy it ourselves). We went out and came back around 4-5pm and the bin was still empty apart from the small wood that was already there in the morning. I emailed them and I was told they don’t provide wood and that there is a small heater. I said it’s ok but maybe they should include that in their accommodation details, somebody else sent me a reply saying that there’s a brochure under the wood burner saying that wood is not provided but they usually leave some to start us off. Unfortunately I didn’t see this brochure so we were not aware. Definitely won’t go back.

Perfect few days in a very quiet and comfortable setting. Sitting on the porch in the sunshine, listening to horses neighing, a cockerel in the distance and a babbling stream, life could not get much better. Small but comfortable with everything you need for a great break. Close to Barnstaple, Ilfracombe and Woolacome so a short drive away from shops, restaurants etc

It was lovelly to stay and relax in each night after work.
