A small boutique hotel and restaurant; we attended for the Valentine's Day Dinner and it was simply exceptional; the food was amazing, tasteful and beautifully presented; the atmosphere perfect and the service, brilliant. Had never been to this place before and did not know what to expect; it far exceeded my expectations and I will be back - highly recommend.

A stunning first visit to The Oaks! The Cheese Soufflé is phenomenal. We dined on a Wednesday night so took advantage of the 2 steaks offer - absolutely perfect steak with great accompaniments and wine included. Winner. Lovely staff, super friendly and a gorgeous venue too. We will be back next time we visit the South Coast for sure!
