Dining

The onsite Italian restaurant offers a seasonal menu crafted by chef Pio, who previously worked as a bond trader. Each evening presents a 5-course set menu that changes based on locally sourced ingredients, including produce from Exmoor's farms and coastal waters. The restaurant also provides a wine list with Italian labels, and the chef personally explains each dish as it is served.

Rooms

All four rooms have views over the harbour and sea, with en suite bathrooms stocked with Aromatherapy Associates toiletries. Each room includes a flat-screen TV, hypoallergenic bedding available on request, and a seating area for reading or relaxing. The largest room accommodates a king-size bed, while the other three offer queen-size beds.

Location

The hotel sits within Exmoor National Park, directly in front of the 15th-century harbour in Porlock Weir. Guests have walking access to Holnicote Estate, where beavers have been reintroduced, and to the South West Coast Path. The village of Porlock offers additional dining options, including a pub and an oyster bar within a 5-minute walk.

Amenities

Free car parking is provided for each room, and superfast WiFi is supplied by Starlink. The lounge and bar feature an open fire, a collection of books, DVDs, and board games, plus a shared TV area. Outside, a garden and a terrace with picnic furniture overlook the harbour, and the hotel has a designated smoking area.

Services

The hotel is adults-only, ensuring a quiet environment, and offers private check-in/out. Guests can arrange packed lunches, car rental, or bike hire through the front desk, and the honeymoon suite can be booked for special occasions. A gift shop on site sells local products, and the hotel provides hypoallergenic room options.
