This was my sister’s first visit to Porlock (and Exmoor National Park). We arrived at night, and Porlock was quite dark. In the morning, my sister says the gasped when she opened her bedroom curtains because the view bowled her over. “Tears, even.” The house was spacious, clean, beautifully outfitted, and perfectly located. I spent some time working remotely and am happy that the WiFi was good. Great trip.

The house felt warm and cosy. The beds were comfortable and the owners provided us with things we didn't even know we needed. There was plenty of room for us to move around do our own thing, as well as sit together. Beautiful house. Beautiful Garden. Beautiful Village.
