My recent visit to Porlock left me thoroughly enchanted by its natural beauty and quaint charm. The village backs onto the breathtaking landscapes of Exmoor National Park providing a stunning picture of rolling hills and lush greenery. The coastal views are spectacular, especially from Porlock Weir, where the dramatic meeting of land and sea creates a mesmerising sight. Walking through the village, I was struck by the picturesque cottages, charming shops, and friendly locals who made me feel welcome. Porlock's historical allure is evident in its well-preserved buildings and the stories they have to share with visitors. One of the highlights of my visit was exploring the coast. Whether going up to the scenic Porlock Hill for panoramic views or enjoying a leisurely stroll along the coastal paths, there was no shortage of outdoor adventures. Overall, Porlock in Somerset is a true gem, offering a perfect blend of natural beauty, historical charm, and warm hospitality. It's a destination that promises relaxation, adventure, and a touch of magic. I can't wait to return and experience more of what this enchanting village has to offer.

Charming little village just back from the coast - although the sea, and Wales on a clear day, were clearly visible. Nice local shops and cafés - not a chain in sight! People very friendly, good pubs.

A nice little village but not a lot of great places to eat. There is a lovely cafe called the Old Library which has delicious food but the rest of the offerings were more basic and like pub food. It has a friendly and welcoming Methodist Church and seems to have a thriving village hall. It's a good base to be in but a bit limited in and of itself.

This property was the best find we have had in a long while. Top ship was atmospheric and the food top draw, Pig in the middle good old fish+chips excellent value. The local supermarket very adiquite for what you need, a large superstore woukd kill this gem of a place, yes we all had a good time here.

A lovely, pretty village. Had a nice meal in top The ship. Plenty of team rooms. Easy to park there at a reasonable price. Porlock Weir is well worth a visit or even a stay. The locals were very warm and welcoming.

The location is perfect for exploring the coast and the coastal side of Exmoor. The town has enough amenities for a week's stay and the people were friendly and welcoming. The food options were limited to the pubs the hotel and a fairly basic pizza place. The access roads are quite steep and narrow but fine if you're not in a hurry. Rainy day options are limited though.
