We love this hotel. It was our 4th visit in 4 years and it does not disappoint! The area around it is perfect for a slowed down weekend getaway full of fresh air good food and comfort. You can eat in other locations at the Weir or walk up to Porlock (bit of a long hill) or walk across to Bossington (6 mile round trip across the bay). However the pizzas on the Terrace are really great with a cider to watch the sun go down.

Lovely hotel in a great position. Hotel provided parking permit for general car park about 25 yards from hotel. Easy. We stayed for 2 nights completing 2 days at start of the South West Coastal Path. Easy bus routes to Minehead and Lynmouth. Then all you have to do is walk back.

A gem of a hotel amazing views fantastic staff
This was our third time at the hotel, once at the old Millers and twice under the new ownership. It was simply fantastic, the hotel is beautiful and continues to grow and develop e.g. the new gardens at the rear. The rooms are comfortable and decorated with taste, but the secret to this hotels success are the staff, they are simply lovely. The food, evening and breakfast, is excellent, particular thanks to Linda and to Becky (birthday decorated sweet).

The location was fantastic, and was the reason we booked the hotel. The sea view room gave the promised vistas. The staff were very welcoming. Some were less experienced, but all made us feel at home. Breakfast was very good with good variety of dishes. We will return.

5 day staycation in Somerset
Really lovely hotel for a 5 day staycation in Somerset. We had a room overlooking the beautiful weir. Good facilities and well decorated. The hotel provide free parking vouchers for the car park across the road which is great as it would’ve been £12 per day otherwise. The food is really very good and we chose to have dinner in the hotel 3 of the 5 nights as we actually couldn’t be bothered driving into Porlock. Breakfast was included and the choice was excellent. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating
