It is essential that everyone travelling to Oak House has directions with them – we are easy to find with the directions but difficult without!
N.B. We have learnt that most satellite navigation systems will take you the wrong way across a redundant farm track when you enter this postcode, (you will then have to reverse half a mile down a muddy track!), with the exception of the Tomtom system which brings you straight to our entranceway. Unless you have Tomtom please follow the directions below. It is important to give this same advice to anyone you may have ordered deliveries from or anyone else visiting the property on your behalf e.g. taxis. If using a route planner (www.theaa.com) please enter Aston Magna (not Paxford) as your destination and follow our directions from Aston Magna (below). We are midway between Paxford and Aston Magna but the Paxford route is longer and harder to follow. Please note that when entering Aston Magna as your destination on AA route finder, it may give directions to turn left or right off the A429 (“The Fosseway”) (depending on your start point) but does not mention that there is a sign to “Aston Magna”. When you arrive at the property drive down the long winding gravel drive signposted to Oak House and Brook House. Please do not carry straight on to our neighbour’s property, signposted “Stapenhill Fam House”. The first property on your left is Oak House and parking is adjacent to Oak House. Continue down the gravel drive and you will find Brook House straight ahead of you.
