Discover East Devon Through Our “Local Knowledge”

At Oakdown, we believe the very best holidays happen when you experience a destination like a local rather than just another tourist. That’s why we’ve created what we call our “Local Knowledge” – a treasure trove of insider secrets, hidden gems, and local wisdom that transforms an ordinary holiday into an extraordinary adventure.

Our family has called East Devon home for generations, and we’ve spent decades uncovering the special places, perfect timings, and local connections that make all the difference. From the fisherman in Beer who knows exactly when the best mackerel runs happen, to the secret pathway that leads to the most spectacular sunrise viewpoint on the Jurassic Coast – this is the kind of authentic local insight that simply can’t be found in guidebooks.
