Is Oakleigh Right For Your Group

Discover why this cottage is the one for your party or family reunion...

For Families
Children will enjoy the enclosed garden space for outdoor play at Oakleigh. The South Devon location puts beaches like Blackpool Sands within 18 minutes' drive for sandcastle building and rock pooling. Paignton Zoo sits 11 miles away with animal exhibits and adventure playgrounds. Totnes has a swimming pool and parks. Dartmoor offers pony spotting and gentle family walks. The open-plan living space means parents can supervise younger children easily whilst preparing meals.
Groups Will Love...
The open-plan living space at Oakleigh is the standout group feature. The kitchen flows directly into the dining and lounge areas, creating one large social space where all eight guests can gather together. Groups can cook whilst others relax on sofas, children can play within sight and mealtimes bring everyone to one table. This layout prevents the separation that often happens in traditional cottage designs. The configuration works brilliantly for multi-family bookings.
Pet Friendly
Oakleigh does not accept pets, so this property is not suitable for guests travelling with dogs or other animals. Groups with pets will need to find alternative accommodation in the South Devon area that welcomes animals. Many Coast & Country Cottages properties do accept pets, so it's worth checking other available lodges if bringing your dog is essential to your holiday plans.
