Oakwood is within walking distance of the historic market town of Chard, with its vibrant mix of shops, restaurants and craft/antique markets.
There are a host of attractions close by for the whole family, including the Ferne Animal Sanctuary with its fulfilled activities, Forde Abbey and Cricket St Thomas - both with their stunning houses, landscaped gardens and a choice of family events. Alternatively, for those that love to be beside the seaside or fossil hunt, the new build development is a short drive to Lyme Regis with access to the Jurassic Coast and a whole variety of coastal activities to explore as well as educational experiences at the Heritage Centres.
