Great experience
Not just an overnight stop this is a destination in its own right. Room and hotel is beautiful and really well designed with beautiful furniture and art. We had the room with the four poster bed and views from 4 windows.the windows have original wooden window shutters. There is also a great restaurant . Outside is the historic Porlock Weir and a pub! Quality.

Good for short stay
Rooms are a little dated. Strange mix of styles, not quite in keeping with the age of the house. Needs updating but clean and comfortable. Pleasant for short stay

Disliked: Staff & service
Beautiful location. A couple of hiccups left us less impressed than we might have been: -Great food (except for there being hardly any crab at all on our crab sandwiches) Oysters were amazing though and breakfast was good. -Rather surprisingly, we were never asked whether we had enjoyed our food or stay so we were left feeling that there was little effort in customer service or that no-one was interested. Overall, it was probably what we expected for the price.

Great location, first class food
We stayed in a bedroom with no view but it was cheap so no complaints are all, staff were friendly and helpful, the cafe is in a perfect location in the village, breakfast was excellent. We will stay there again soon but go for a room with a sea view, highly recommended!!

Amazing location, lovely breakfast
The location is fantastic. The welcome was friendly and helpful. The room could do with a small fridge to put the fresh milk into. The bed wasn't the most comfortable sadly but the stay overall was great and the breakfast very fresh and tasty
