The Dog House provides fabulous accommodation in a central position in the lovely village of Porlock. The property is well equipped with ample bedroom space and bathroom facilities. Two of the bedrooms are in the converted roof space, so a bit of a climb up the two flights of stairs. The kitchen is small with very little work surface area. It is a small part of the dining area within the open plan living space. It can become a little overcrowded when trying to prepare meals. There is a small courtyard with table and chairs to enjoy outside space, and parking is provided for two cars, just a short walk away. The communication was excellent with the management company. They were extremely helpful.

It is a real home from home, we felt totally at ease from the minute we arrived. It’s so comfortable and welcoming with lovely comfortable beds. It has everything you need for your holiday and for our four legged friend too. Porlock is a special place for us and we know we will be returning and when we do we will have no hesitation in stopping in this lovely welcoming cottage again.

    Very well appointed cottage in a great location in the centre of Porlock, yet quiet and peaceful when we sat outside in the courtyard in the evenings. Clearly, this cottage has only recently been refurbished, and to a high standard. 4 bedrooms and 4.1/2 bathrooms a real bonus, especially for us olde.... Very well appointed cottage in a great location in the centre of Porlock, yet quiet and peaceful when we sat outside in the courtyard in the evenings. Clearly, this cottage has only recently been refurbished, and to a high standard. 4 bedrooms and 4.1/2 bathrooms a real bonus, especially for us older folk, although it should be noted that 2 of the bedrooms are on the 2nd floor so 2 flights of stairs. Paul responded quickly to my queries. Happy to recommend and would definitely rebook.
