Vine Cottage, Porlock
Well located in Porlock, easy access to shops, restaurants and pubs. Very well appointed cottage, ideal for North Devon/Somerset. Highly recommend.

Nice thatched cottage. Owners were very accommodating. Nicely situated on edge of Exmoor. Only advice Check your brakes before you go. Porlock hill is extremely steep and is classed as part of A39

There were wonderful veiws from the bedroom and they provided lots of infomation about the area in the cottage. The DVD player was also easy to use and they provided some 2 DVDs if you forgot to bring any of your own as well as some light readingto enjoy during your stay. The duvets were very think and soft so kept you warm during the night. Altogether it was a wonderful place to stay and enjoy the wonderful outdoors.

Comfortable stay in Porlock.
Porlock was lovely! We had a comfortable & quiet stay at The Gables. Louise was friendly & helpful. Breakfast delicious. Floors were squeaky - you get that it old houses - so you can be disturbed by other visitors moving around.

Perfect place to stay in Porlock village.
This is our third stay here and we absolutely love it! The property is beautiful, the room is clean and spacious with good facilities. Bed is very comfy. The couple who run and own the B&B are friendly and helpful. We love Porlock so it’s great being in a quiet spot but two minutes walk into the village. Our two dogs were welcome and we enjoyed some lovely walks with them. Breakfast is always very good. We will definitely stay again.

Great B&B for several nights
Good place to stay whilst exploring Exmoor. Plenty of space in the rooms. Easy to find though parking is either in the local Pay & Display or on the road. Located right in the centre of Porlock, where teh best dinner was foud at the Lorna Doone hotel.

An absolute gem...
An absolute gem in a really lovely village. I'd certainly stay here again. The owners were great. Very friendly and keen to ensure everyone has a good stay. The breakfast was tasty and enough to fuel us up for the day. Cooked breakfast and cereals available. The B&B doesn't have its own parking, but there's a car park next door that is free 6pm-9am, so if you're out for the day then it's not an issue. There's some free parking available further up the street, and further car parks in the village if needed. We didn't struggle to park except for one evening when we returned just around dinner time. But even then we found a space on the road. There are several pubs and restaurants in the village, and the B&B is easy walking distance to them all, being located just off the main street. Room was spacious and clean and WiFi was available. We were out and about most of our time there, but if you wanted to stay around the house for more of the day then that would be possible too. There's a guest lounge provided, and access to a well kept garden.

Perfect stay.
We only stayed for 2 nights, but this bed and breakfast was perfect, the hosts chris and Louise made us feel very welcome, and nothing was too much trouble. My husband is coeliac , so no gluten,we emailed when we booked and they made sure he had a choice of breakfasts cold and hot.The room was very comfortable and quiet. Would certainly book again.

Cute B&B With Very Helpful Owners
This was a very nice place to stay. The room was very comfortable, and it was really nice to have a family suite with 2 separate rooms in one. The owners were there as we were arriving and helped us to park. They were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, not the best we had on the trip, but still tasty and filling.

Would highly recommend The Gables, mainly to dog owners but for anyone. Very warm and friendly welcome, beautiful building, room was top notch with reasonable sized bathroom attached. Breakfast too was very nice and of good quality. Looking forward to returning at some point. Big thumbs up from us.
