The Cottage is one of the friendliest, nicest places I have stayed. It is a quirky old building but beautifully kept, the rooms are comfortable and the food and welcome both excellent. I'll certainly be back.

Friendly, helpful hosts, great breakfast, nice room in an old character cottage, right in the middle of the Main Street, with lots of choices for food and drink within a couple of minutes walk. Only about 15 minutes from the south west coast path, well worth the detour. Highly recommended.

I picked this b&b from the Porlock tourist board site, and I was pleased indeed. Very pleasant hosts, made me instantly welcome and comfortable. The Cottage is a great example of a good B&B, run smoothly and the property is very well kept. Good size en-suite bedroom with the odd creaky floorboard (something would be wrong without a creaky floorboard!),... More

We stumbled across The Cottage whilst looking for an overnight stay as part of our tour around the West Country and we were not disppointed. The B&B is extremely well run and the owners, John and Angela, are both very welcoming and friendly. It's a lovely building with very well furnished and very clean rooms. The breakfast was really tasty.... More

I wanted to have 1 night away to celebrate by girlfriend's birthday. I was a bit nervious in case I booked something less than perfect. I need not have worried. Both Angela and John are charming. The Cottage is lovely. Nice decor throughout. Breakfast is superb. You really won't find a better B&B. Location is great too - right opposite... More

The cottage itself is delightfully furnished and decorated throughout. A warm and friendly welcome is guarranteed as is a genuine interest... More
