- "My girlfriend and I had a lovely stay in David and Nicky's cottage. Lots of love has gone into this place, it's obvious either they've stayed in it themselves or they've listened very closely to feedback. David and Nicky were super nice and made sure we had what we needed. Very clean, incredibly well equipped kitchen, lots of heating options including central, floor in the bathroom and wood burner in the sitting room. Comfy bed with awesome view towards the sea. Well positioned near Porlock which is a nice village (we much preferred to the larger seaside towns) and lots of awesome walks nearby - all the ones in the booklet were great. The nearby area has lots of woodland which we preferred for walking to the other areas of Exmoor (which are still beautiful). Lastly if you don't have a dog (we don't) and aren't dog people (I'm not) then don't worry, there's absolutely no doggie smells and no barking nearby! In fact it's super quiet and we slept with the window open. Highly recommended!"

- "I had a most enjoyable stay at The Coach House over Christmas . Clean and well-maintained with lovely stunning sea views; I found it cosy, relaxing and well-equipped. It was just a short stroll to the pretty harbour where there are a couple of shops, a hotel open to non-residents, a pub and restaurant. A bus takes in Porlock Village and Minehead. I enjoyed glorious walks along the coast, through woodlands and across the fabulous moorland of Exmoor (easy to find the ponies but deer-spotting needs an eagle eye).

Parking
A private parking bay for up to two cars is beside/below the cottage. The lane to the cottage is a private road only shared with a handful of other properties just beyond West Wind, but it's a no-through road, so it's usually very quiet in terms of traffic.

You can park one other vehicle further up the lane keeping close to the hedge above the verge. Please be aware this is shared with neighbours and not to block anyone in. Also, you can park by the village hall which is opposite the Top Ship inn, I think you may need to get a permit, there is a sign in the car park.

Dogs are welcome (max 2) upon payment of supplement of £15 per dog. Please do not allow your dogs on the furniture or upstairs or leave them unattended.

Restricted mobility
Although there are bedrooms on the ground floor, we suggest this property is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility due to the steps required to access the cottage from the parking area.

The region
Exmoor is situated in South West Britain, specifically across West Somerset and North Devon. Often referred to as England's best kept secret, Exmoor is a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

Often described as 'the jewel in Exmoor's crown', Porlock has a long history of settlements existing on or near the site of the existing village, with stone-age remains only a short distance away. Porlock is a working village and boasts a number of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and independent shops. There few more delightful surroundings than Porlock Vale, nestled at the foot of Porlock Hill, bounded to the north by its shingle ridge and breath taking views towards the Bristol Channel, and to the south by the rolling hills of the Exmoor National Park. The Exmoor coastline is formed mainly of cliffs but at Porlock the land flattens out and a unique mile long shingle ridge and an inland salt marsh have formed. For the bird watcher this is a very interesting site as a great variety of waders and wildfowl can be seen here in the winter as well as the occasional unusual bird passing through.

- "Just after Christmas I knew it wouldn't be long before i'd need my Exmoor fix. Porlock is my favourite place to be based. I went online and Hurlestone Apartment came up at a good price. It looked really homely from the photos, was pet friendly and it had parking, so I decided to book it for a long weekend. When we arrived we were greeted by Stephen. He was so welcoming. We immediately felt at home. He showed us up to the flat. As per the pictures, it felt really homely. It was well presented and very clean. Kitchen wise, it was well equipped and we had everything we needed for our four night stay. The view from the lounge and kitchen is amazing. You can see out over Hurlestone Point and Bossington Woods and then out to sea, with Wales in the distance. During our break we had issues with the vacuum cleaner in the flat. Chris and Stephen were very apologetic and soon sorted us out with a replacement. Nothing was too much trouble during our stay and we were made to feel extremely welcome at all times. We will definitely be staying with them again."

- "A memorable find! We were 6, (4 adults + 2 under10s) and had a great time. The house has been upgraded tastefully, comfortably with many useful gadgets. The 3 bedrooms were very conducive to sleep because it was so quiet. The large kitchen and eating area is absolutely ideal for family groups with ample room for eating and playing board games. The sitting room has 2 good easy chairs plus a large sofa. The TV and DVD player are both excellent (DVD of Lorna Doone is available). Ground floor shower is brilliant and the bath is deep and luxurious. Porlock is a busy little town with several good shops. The fact that there is a convenience store directly opposite means that basic groceries can be obtained within minutes without having to resort to the car. i would thoroughly recommend staying here."

Today Porlock is a wonderful working Exmoor village and boasts three pubs, two grocery shops, a traditional local butcher, chemist, cash machine, hardware shop, visitor centre, several art galleries and a range of independent restaurants, shops and tea rooms.

- "Cottage was clean and had everything that we needed, private parking was a bonus! We loved that we didn't need to use the car once during our stay. There were so many footpaths straight from the cottage that we may need to come again to try some more of them." - "This is a recently updated apartment which has been modified to a very high standard. It is perfect as a base for two people to enjoy Porlock and surrounding area. This property also has a private parking space and as someone who has visited Porlock on a few previous occasions I cannot overstate what a benefit this was. Once again the property as a whole contributed to another wonderful holiday in this lovely area."

The region
Exmoor is situated in South West Britain, specifically across West Somerset and North Devon. Often referred to as England's best kept secret, Exmoor is a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

Porlock Weir has a quaint little harbour and its own unique charm; the port has a long and colourful history. Today Porlock Weir is a quiet harbour and a thriving community that welcomes tourists every year, many of whom come to enjoy the pretty scenery, shops, tea rooms, pubs and local cuisine. On a fine day, the South West Coast Path offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the fabulous views across Porlock Weir and the bay. The coastal footpath links up with many other walking trails including Culbone, home to the smallest church in England. One of the more unusual attractions at Porlock Weir is the submerged forest. At low tide, the remains of ancient tree trunks arise from the grey clay soil. These desiccated stumps are the last remaining evidence of a forest that, once upon a time, lay five miles inland.
Security Deposit Information

This will be added to the total price of your booking, and will be refunded after your stay unless the owner discovers damage to the property or its contents after your departure.

- "A charming cottage in a wonderful spot where there is always something going on. We have been using Best of Exmoor for years and wouldn't consider booking an Exmoor holiday through any other company." - "Loved our stay Western Cottage - have stayed in Porlock for many years and always wanted to be on the weir- the cottage was fantastic, everything has been thought of from hot water bottles and salt and pepper pots to the flood gates should they be needed - and we have had the most brilliant week away. Beds were extremely comfortable and we had even been left washing tablets for the washer. We are a family of 2 teens and they also loved every minute of this unique stay. If there is a downside it’s to remember that with no real or reliable phone signal here the Wi-Fi in the cottage is poor and glitched constantly. Not a necessity by any means but we couldn’t reliably make or take calls which on occasion we needed to do."

- "The studio is a great place for a short break. It is recently refurbished to a high spec with a comfy bed and great shower and equipped with all the important little things. The kitchenette is ideal for making breakfast and there are great options nearby for eating out. ( Ziang's is excellent, The Hotel on the Weir does great pizzas but avoid the a la carte ( very disappointing) Top Ship in Porlock is good, the tearoom in Bossington is fab). Porlock Weir is a fabulous place to stay. The views from the big window in the studio are great, especially the morning sunrise - and the shutters ensure privacy from people passing by the window (it was August and hot, so busy at the Weir!). The owners are very welcoming and friendly. We hope to return. Oh and having the parking space was a real bonus."

- "This is the perfect cottage! We were just two and our dog so it was a real treat to have all the space to ourselves. The view is outstanding and the creature comforts were all you could desire. There is a wonderful ambience in the cottage which just relaxes you.

- "A total home from home! Everything you could wish for in a holiday home, including friendly neighbours. It has a warm, welcoming feel and really did feel like our home during our stay. There was so much to see and do nearby, we really needed another week to do it justice. The kids loved the stream in the garden, which can be crossed by bridge and paddled in a little further up the lane. Lynton and Lynmouth were just breathtaking (and Charlie Friday's family cafe the best EVER), we loved the local stony beaches which were quiet even in peak season and my 7 year old declared our trip to Kilve beach as the best day of her life, due to the abundance of fossils. Glad of a 4x4 mini for all the narrow lanes and hills though, including the one leading to the cottage. Would definitely visit again and recommend to friends and family. Huge thanks for a great stay."

The region
Exmoor is situated in South West Britain, specifically across West Somerset and North Devon. Often referred to as England's best kept secret, Exmoor is a wonderful holiday destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long expeditions across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

Often described as 'the jewel in Exmoor's crown', Porlock has a long history of settlements existing on or near the site of the existing village, with stone-age remains only a short distance away. Porlock is a working village and boasts a number of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and independent shops. There are few more delightful surroundings than Porlock Vale, nestled at the foot of Porlock Hill, bounded to the north by its shingle ridge and breathtaking views towards the Bristol Channel, and to the south by the rolling hills of the Exmoor National Park. The Exmoor coastline is formed mainly of cliffs, but at Porlock the land flattens out and a unique mile long shingle ridge and an inland salt marsh have formed. For the bird watcher this is a very interesting site as a great variety of waders and wildfowl can be seen here in the winter as well as the occasional unusual bird passing through.

- "My husband and I used Keld as both a launching pad for the many varied hiking trails in Exmoor as well as a comfy nest from which to work remotely. The flat was exceptionally clean and comfortable, the WiFi was excellent, and the location was near groceries, shopping, bus stops, and restaurants. Well done, Keld!"

Located within Exmoor National Park, Locanda on the Weir is located in front of the 15th century harbor in Porlock Weir Somerset.

There are three bedrooms, two with king-sized beds. Note that one of these king-sized beds is raised to maximise the view when you're drinking your morning tea/coffee, but may not be suitable for those with restricted mobility. These two bedrooms share a large shower room, which also houses the washing machine. The third bedroom has twin beds and an en-suite shower room. (Note, there is no bath at this property).

Wifi, heating and electricity are included in the price of your accommodation.
The property is fitted with infrared heating panels on the ceiling. Infrared heating warms objects and people, rather than just the air of the entire room which makes it much more efficient than conventional radiators.
One basket of logs will be provided for the wood-burner in the cooler months, further supplies can be purchased locally in the village if required.

The television has Freesat. An Amazon Firestick is also provided through which you can watch catch-up TV, and some mobiles and tablets can stream/mirror paid services through it to the TV. There is also a Bluetooth speaker to which you can connect and play your own music.

Bed linen and towels are provided, but please bring your own beach towels if you want to take them on day trips or use the towels outside.

There is no travel cot or highchair available at this property. On request a fire guard can be made available to protect toddlers from the woodburner.

Restricted Mobility & Wheelchair Users: There is level access from the car parking area to the front door. There is a ramp to the door but a door threshold to get over. Once inside there are no thresholds and fairly good manoeuvring space. Please see photos for the space in the main bathroom, and get in touch if you have specific questions about whether it will be suitable.

Outdoor Description
A sloping, gated drive leads away from the road up to the property, which is tucked away in a private location barely visible above the road. There is ample car parking for 3 cars.

The current owners bought this property in 2022. At that time the outside space was very overgrown and still requires a lot of work for it become the beautiful garden they anticipate it will one day become. There is no lawn area. There is a patio area at the side of the property with 'conversation' chairs, and enjoyment of the best of the sunshine and the fabulous view. There is also a bowl firepit with a swing arm BBQ grill. The rest of the garden area is still a work-in-progress. Most of the garden behind the property is sloping with shrubs and trees.

PLEASE NOTE: A gardener comes almost every Wednesday, and the owners will come and work in the garden then too sometimes. There is a small annex to the property which the owners and gardener use as a base while they are working in the garden.

From the property, it's a short walk to access local footpaths which will take you up into the woods behind the property or down onto the marsh, and then along to Porlock or Porlock Weir. It's also an easy to walk to the beach along the road.

Parking
Parking is available on the drive outside the property, for up to 3 cars.
There is currently no charge point at the property, and we ask guests not to charge from the domestic supply. There are two 22KW charge points in Porlock's Central Car Park with space for four vehicles; cars can be charged for up to three hours following the purchase of a car parking ticket.

Pets Description
Note that the garden is not completely enclosed for determined wanderers as the fencing to the woods is not secure. However, there is a gate on the driveway which would stop a dog easily getting onto the road. There are many pheasants in the area...

Most pubs & cafes as well as some restaurants on Exmoor are dog friendly.

Please note that ticks are endemic across Exmoor so we recommend you get your dogs preventative tick treatment prior to arrival.

Cats are also welcome, but obviously don't let them scratch the furniture!

Restricted mobility
The property is all on one level inside, with a ramp but quite a large threshold to the main door. The only reason we say it may not be suitable for wheelchair users is that the corridor into the main bathroom might be tight. Please ask for photos to make a decision if it will be suitable for you!
Also one of the king-size beds in the small bedroom has been raised up to maximise the view so not great for chair-bed transfers!

Exit in case of emergency
This has not been completed by the owner.

Christmas / New Year
Unless requested otherwise, a tree will be put up along with festive lighting and a few other decorations.

Often referred to as England's best kept secret, Exmoor is a wonderful destination for anyone looking for a holiday in the great outdoors! There's so much to see and do, from short walks to long hikes across the moors or horse riding, taking in a safari or sight-seeing at your own pace around the 'picture postcard' villages and hamlets.

There are few more delightful surroundings than Porlock Vale, nestled at the foot of Porlock Hill, bounded to the north by its shingle ridge and breath taking views towards the Bristol Channel, and to the south by the rolling hills of the Exmoor National Park. The Exmoor coastline is formed mainly of cliffs but at Porlock the land flattens out and a unique mile long shingle ridge and an inland salt marsh have formed.

- "A fabulous property with amazing views of the sea and situated in a very peaceful location. A delicious home made chocolate cake was waiting for us on our arrival with milk,tea , coffee and a bottle of wine also. Apart from breakfast we ate out so didn't use cooker/utensils etc but the owners had thought of everything and provided so much it would have been easy to fully self cater. Will be recommending this property to family and friends. The area is perfect for exploring/walking and scenery is beautiful."
