Out of season it is quiet and a lot of the shops/pubs/cafes have limited opening times. If you want a break from a busy life, it feels relaxing. The lanes can be narrow and winding,the views out to sea from Porlock Weir are great

Easy to get to from M5, coaster bus £2 runs every hour no need to drive, Top Ship best steak, but many good pubs and hotels, Whortleberry tea rooms best for cakes, shops and 2 supermarkets in easy reach, so many good walks, woods, coastal and hill, steepest A road in Britain, camp site and a coffee roasting and tea blending shop, an incredible place, perfection, well worth a visit.

Always somewhere to eat and drink.
Always somewhere to eat and drink. Most of the shops were open and a good selection. Easy to walk anywhere.
Locals are very friendly.
Do not confuse the Top Ship with the Bottom Ship! Same owners, similar menu and bar staff work in both. When booking a meal double check you have the right Ship

Porlock is an amazing place to visit!
Porlock is an amazing place to visit! It is old, very quaint. and quite special. It was an honor to roam the streets and check out the shops, particularly the Wortelberry Tea Room where we enjoyed cream tea, a UK favorite and now ours, and the museum. Neil and Tyrone were such gracious and helpful hosts.

Porlock is a little hidden gem in the County of Somerset, South West England.
There a so many different types of walks varying from Exmoor pony and Deer watching to exploring the wooded coombes with beautiful flowing crystal clear streams.
A walk through Horner wood is beautiful too and Webber's Post were you would almost certainly see the ponies close up.
The village of Porlock itself has 3 lovely pubs, which all serve food, plus a handful of tearooms. Whortleberry tea rooms and the Big Cheese both deserve mention.
I am a visitor to this beautiful place and find myself returning again and again to this beautiful friendly village.

Porlock Weir hotel is just down the hill from Porlock.
Porlock Weir hotel is just down the hill from Porlock. Right on the harbour front. There is a fantastic terrace by the harbour wall for eating wood fired pizza when weather is warm enough or just enjoy a drink whilst soaking up the view. There is a great lounge area. There is an informal bar area, where people with doggy’s sit. There is a lovely restaurant where breakfast, lunch and dinner are serviced. Porlock has lots on offer. Shops, small museum. Groceries. Cash point. Pharmacy and Miles tea. Whortleberry Tea rooms is a favourite and there is a great Cheese shop where you can grab a coffee and cake or a snack and stock up on a fabulous range of cheeses and chutneys.
The house is situated at a very serene and peaceful location amongst trees next to a stream and a bridleway that is very useful for walks. Lovely to listen to the running water and the birds. Feels very private and safe. Walking distance to Porlock Wier that has a pub and restaurants. Less than 10min drive to Porlock that has a lot of shops. House has everything one may need and plenty of space. Pleasantly surprised and pics don’t do it justice. Perfect base for exploring Exmoor. We would come back again.
I'm a returning customer (but not frequently)
My son and I travelled from Ireland by motorcycle to tour some of Somerset, Cornwall and Devon.
The Lorna Doone is ideally situated for a weekend such as ours.
Our hosts provided off road parking for us which was perfect for our needs.
The staff were extremely friendly and courteous and the breakfasts very good.
WiFi was spot on.
All told, it was very good indeed.
Perfect location for walking the coastal path & exploring the local area. Beautifully quiet but only 10minutes walk into Porlock to access the shops and buses. Large, fully equipped kitchen / diner, and surprisingly large rooms for a cottage. Delightfully furnished & kind, friendly owners who live locally. Really enjoyed our stay, perfect for a family of four. We hope to return!
The breakfast was the best British breakfast we ever had, there's a breakfast menu and you can easily change bits if the children are picky. Excellent choices for people who don't like to eat meat too. The B&B is close to everything in Porlock, all restaurants are within a few minutes walking or less. The beds where excellent and everything about our stay felt welcoming.
Beautiful house in a beautiful location, only a ten-minute drive from Porlock. Lots of lovely walks straight from the house. Our stay there felt like a taste of luxury! Staff were very friendly and welcoming, and our room was lovely with a big comfy bed. Breakfast was delicious with a range of options to choose from.
Very beautiful and clean property, it really felt like a luxury retreat in the countryside. Breakfast was outstanding, plentiful and delicious. Various walking options possible from the b&b, Porlock Village (for eating out) were about 25 minutes walk away.
The breakfast was lovely. Plenty of choices and the hot food was well prepared. The location is great. Right in the middle of Porlock. Chris and Clare, couple that run it, are very very friendly and accommodating. They allowed to check in 3 hours early!
Breakfast excellent. Dinner food good but found courses a bit rich. Would like a few plainer options without sauce. Of course I could have asked the question!!!!Hotel tastefully furnished and very comfortable.
Quirky old cottage in a central location for Porlock’s cafes, shops etc. also near the start of the walk to Porlock Weir.
Friendly couple, nice reception room, good breakfast.
