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.

A lovely place - so well equipped and comfortable. Stunning area with so much to see and do. I love the fact that we could book through a local agency - I wish more areas did similar!

We knew this and were prepared though. The area is great - lots of interesting and useful shops in Porlock and Porlock....
