    It was super clean and had everything we needed. Parking was no problem at all - we were able to park 2 cars right outside the front. This place offers great value for money, and I would definitely return and recommend it to others. The area is absolutely beautiful! There's a fantastic park just around the corner which my kids absolutely adored. It's just a 15-minute drive to Minehead for that classic seaside vibe. The Porlock weir is also very pretty - only a 10-minute drive, or more like a 30-minute walk downhill. We also loved the open-roof bus, but I would recommend driving to Blue Anchor Caravan Park because that's where the bus starts. It tends to get full once it arrives in Porlock. The only downside is that the stairs to the top bedroom are quite steep, so it may not be very suitable for younger children or elderly people.

    The property has been decorated to high standards and is well equipped with everything guests may need. Spotlessly clean with comfortable beds. Has outside space, decking area and nice gardens. Highly recommended.

  • Leslie

    House was perfect for what we needed. Only issue we found was the steepness of the stairs up to the third bedroom.
