  • "This was our second time staying at Oakleigh Farm and once again it exceeded our expectations."

    I recently had an operation and was looking for someone quiet to relax and recover so naturally we chose to stay there again. We were greeted with a warm welcome back by Chris and Fern who left us extra goodies from our favourite local store and a gift for our dog, Tess. They are such lovely hosts and the personal touch is what will keep us going back time and time again. This time we stayed in the Onnen hut and it was fabulous. We have all the facilities we needed for our 3 night stay. The kitchen is well-equipped with all the utensils and crockery you need. There is a selection of toiletries provided if you forgot to pack your own. The towels and bedding are lovely and clean. There’s also coffee and tea and condiments provided too which is super handy. The garden was ideal for the dog who enjoyed running laps around the enclosed garden when she had the zoomies. We honestly cannot fault anything about the place. We absolutely love it. It’s very closely situated to Aberaeron which has a good selection of shops and restaurants. I cannot recommend this place enough. We are already discussing when we will be back to visit next year. Thanks again to Chris and Fern for making our visit perfect!

    Thanks again for the wonderful review Sally. It was really great to welcome you, Mark and Tess back again we really appreciate you choosing us once more. So pleased that you are recovering well and that you could relax in Onnen and enjoy some peace. Take care of yourself and we look forward to seeing you again next year. Property Owner

  • "What a wonderful few days we've just had in Onnen."

    The accommodation is clean, decorated very tastefully with everything you need to hand. The garden was fantastic for our reactive dog, as enclosed with fencing so we felt more at ease. The owner Chris was most helpful, made us feel very welcome, thankyou for our lovely welcome hamper too. Would highly recommend a stay at Oakford Farm, the woodland trail was lovely with it's babbling stream and moss covered Gnarly trees, so nice to loose yourself, though Chris has placed arrows on route so no fear of getting lost The coastline is beautiful, we visited a few dog friendly beaches, but sadly didn't get time to do them all, maybe next time. Thankyou again for a lovely relaxing stay.

    Thank you Samantha and Adam for your great review and we’re really pleased you, and of course the lovely Zuri, all enjoyed your stay in Onnen. We appreciate you choosing us and it was a pleasure to welcome you all. Property Owner

  • "To describe our say in one word "AMAZING"."

    Chris and I enjoyed our stay so much and could not fault Shepard's hut at all. The hosts have definitely put a lot of thought into this to make sure that every individual enjoy their stay. Private garden for the dogs, upon arrival, eggs, butter, cakes, jam, tea, bread and lots more available. There was nothing missing at all. Chris and I have stayed at many huts before and found that the bed was uncomfortable. The bed at Shepard's Hut was amazing and so comfortable which added to our holiday and feeling rested. There was wood logs and charcoal available upon arrival. The shed at the side of hut, had everything you needed inside. The hut was very clean and easy to maintain. I took my picnic mat and placed it on the floor inside the hut out of respect due to having to 2 dogs. Close to the huts, you will find a lovely forest walk for the dogs which is marked out clearly for tail. It was so peaceful and the rain did not put us off at all. The hut was very warm inside and all facilities are to an amazing standard. This is the far best hut Chris and I have stayed and the host deserve so much credit for the work they have put into this. The hosts are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Chris and I would like to say! A BIG THANKYOU and would love to stay here again. I would highly recommend to everyone looking for a romantic and peaceful weekend. From Chris and Sue Stockport Manchester.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review Sue and it was a real pleasure to meet you, Chris, and the gorgeous Jenny and Eric. We’re so glad you enjoyed your time in Onnen with us and will very much look forward to welcoming you all back to Cysgod Y Dderwen. Property Owner

  • "The property was absolutely fabulous, I was so impressed!"

    It was really well equipped, there wasn't anything I felt was missing/needed. The bed was very comfortable and had great storage underneath. Having an enclosed space was perfect for my dog, it really gave me peace of mind. There were only two other huts and they were really well spaced out, so it still felt very private. The hosts were lovely too! Thank you so much :)

    Thank you for your lovely review Debs and it was great to welcome you and the gorgeous Biscuit to Onnen. We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for choosing to stay with us. Property Owner
