Pub/Hotel.

A welcoming free house, set in a quiet village in undulating countryside, on the fringes of Exmoor. The area around Oakford is renowned for shooting, fishing and walking. The bar offers a cosy atmosphere, set around a beautiful open bar. Two cask ales are on offer, with a third at busy times. Good-value wholesome food is served (best to pre-book). A small car park and garden area can be found across the road, and overnight en-suite accommodation is available. Opening hours change in the summer months, Saturday lunchtime by appointment only.

Accessibility access - A survey is required
