Summary: 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!

Summary: A very peaceful and quiet location, yet proximity to Porlock is great, only a 5 minute walk. The Colerdige way, directly accessible via the orchard to the rear of the property, is wonderful and local walking, whether to the sea or Porlock Weir and on to Culbone Church is spectacular.

Summary: Could not find fault with this lovely cottage, our host was charming and very helpful. We stayed in January and were very cosy and and warm even at minus 3! Panoramic views out to sea and Wales, very quiet with access to the Coleridge Way through the owners orchard, giving access to many walks. Cannot recommend highly enough.
