The region
Porlock is a historic village on the edge of Exmoor National Park in Somerset, in a sheltered vale between the moor and the Bristol Channel coast. Its heritage stretches back to Saxon times.
The meandering High Street is lined with independent shops, including a traditional butcher, chemist, hardware shop, post office, two convenience stores, art galleries, a chocolate shop, and a cash machine. Most shops keep hours of 9am to 5pm, often extending during the summer season.
The harbour hamlet of Porlock Weir is approximately one mile to the west and makes a lovely walk or a short drive. There you will find a 15th-century tidal harbour, a pub, restaurants, cafes, and independent shops and galleries.
Minehead is the nearest town, approximately 6 miles away. Here you will find larger supermarkets and petrol stations (Tesco and Morrisons on the outskirts with longer opening hours), most major high street banks with cash machines, and a range of other shops. EV charging points are available at Porlock Central Car Park.

The annexe is an ideal place for a couple to stay in Porlock. Situated in the centre of the village with all its amenities and with many lovely walks starting at your front door! The property is well appointed and had everything we needed for a week’s stay. The private parking place is a bonus!

A beautifully prepared cottage in a lovely central location opposite the village church. Very private and secure as your car is parked on site behind locked gates. We loved waking up to the church bells on Sunday and the fabulous log burner which virtually lit itself! Walk from the door straight up to the high moor or down to the beach. Perfect.
