About this property
… in the lush wooded grounds of the grand Edwardian hunting lodge (see F30) about a mile from Porlock, an attached cottage renovated from the chief instructor’s quarters of one of the finest riding stables in Somerset. At the back, original, beautifully cobbled stable yard and stables which are used. At the front, a footpath takes you through two pony paddocks to the beach (250 yards).
Access through its enclosed garden (table/chairs) via 6 steps. A large, rare Cornus tree shades the front door; hall for coats/boots; two ground-floor bedrooms – a very roomy double (5’ bed) with en suite bathroom (suite, shower over bath, second door to hall), and step up to a twin with en suite shower-room (suite). Stairs up to open-plan living/dining/kitchen (dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge-freezer, slimline oven) with TV/DVD, iPod dock and glimpses of surrounding wooded hills; second living room-cum-den with sofa bed and TV/DVD. Pub, café and harbour, 1 mile level walk. Shooting can be arranged. A lovely tranquil spot.

Mrs Jolliffe
"Unlike previous properties we have booked with other companies, the private garden is secure for the dog, which was great. The property itself is spacious and comfortable with friendly and helpful owners and housekeeper. Ideal location for walking."

"We add to miss the first 4 nights of our booking through the sudden illness and loss of our dog. The owners were very sympathetic and Helpful Holidays staff did all they could to try and re=market the free days. The property is very well presented and in a beautiful setting. It's possible to walk to the beach and along to Porlock Weir. Be warned, flip-flops and sandals should be dropped in favour of sturdy walking boots as we found out. The area is very dog friendly in virtually all pubs and cafes. I would certainly consider re-visiting in happier times."
