Nice thatched cottage. Owners were very accommodating. Nicely situated on edge of Exmoor. Only advice Check your brakes before you go. Porlock hill is extremely steep and is classed as part of A39

There were wonderful veiws from the bedroom and they provided lots of infomation about the area in the cottage. The DVD player was also easy to use and they provided some 2 DVDs if you forgot to bring any of your own as well as some light readingto enjoy during your stay. The duvets were very think and soft so kept you warm during the night. Altogether it was a wonderful place to stay and enjoy the wonderful outdoors.

Comfortable stay in Porlock.
Porlock was lovely! We had a comfortable & quiet stay at The Gables. Louise was friendly & helpful. Breakfast delicious. Floors were squeaky - you get that it old houses - so you can be disturbed by other visitors moving around.

Perfect place to stay in Porlock village.
This is our third stay here and we absolutely love it! The property is beautiful, the room is clean and spacious with good facilities. Bed is very comfy. The couple who run and own the B&B are friendly and helpful. We love Porlock so it’s great being in a quiet spot but two minutes walk into the village. Our two dogs were welcome and we enjoyed some lovely walks with them. Breakfast is always very good. We will definitely stay again.

Great B&B for several nights
Good place to stay whilst exploring Exmoor. Plenty of space in the rooms. Easy to find though parking is either in the local Pay & Display or on the road. Located right in the centre of Porlock, where teh best dinner was foud at the Lorna Doone hotel.
