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!

Beautiful clean and comfortable house with everything we needed for a lovely holiday. The view and the garden are amazing, although lots of steps and steep drops for our blind dog! We knew this and were prepared though. The area is great - lots of interesting and useful shops in Porlock and Porlock....
