About this property

The Oak Escape in The Blackdown Hills near Taunton

Welcome to the beautiful Blackdown Hills, we are conveniently located between Taunton, Wellington and Honiton in a quiet Area of Outstanding Natural beauty and set in 8 acres.

Our aim, to try and share our little piece of green countryside with our guests and create a place to relax in comfort away from your everyday cares and stress.

Surrounded in walks, trails and lovely traditional pubs this is a great place to get away, but at the same time having great links to the area far and wide.

Our small studio/House has been built to latest standards ensuring warmth and comfort during your stay. We have kept the pod as simple as possible making it ideal for couples and young families. The place has been fitted out with all the comforts of home with brands we all know and trust. The hot tub is here for you to enjoy as you wish, bathrobes and luxury White Company towels will keep you warm afterwards.

40 ins Tv with DVD and Roberts music system will help entertain on those cold dark winter nights when the views have been covered for the day.

The shower room is stocked with everything you will need during your stay with a Mira shower to reinvigorate while your towel is warmed on the electric towel rail.

The kitchen is compact but fully functioning with oven,fridge freezer and 2 ring hob top. The oven can also be used as a microwave. If coffee is your indulgence the Nespresso machine is there and fully stocked for you to sample the different flavours on offer.

For the energetic guests we have 2 adult bikes located at the pod, please bring your own helmets!

With our changeable weather you can decide to eat inside or out with the tables and chairs we have provided. The Weber BBQ is also in situation on the deck when required.

Wireless charging is available along with a docking port for the iPhone with USB plugs available at the bedsides.
Access to the Escape is located by our main drive. This is protected by an electric gate with key code ensuring safety for any little ones who like to wander! If we are not there on your arrival a key safe is located next to the Hot tub.

Carrying on through to one of our Paddocks will bring you to your home for the time you have with us. Served by its own gravel road there is ample parking and turning available.
Although the site of the house is private, we are generally around to answer any questions you may have.
