Very warm welcome. The snug was particularly lovely for reading a relaxing. Ask about 'Dicks's Drives' route - great tour of Exmoor.

The room was small,but was beautiful presented,clean & tidy with a comfortable bed shower was small but adequate ,food amazing,great value for money, all the staff were welcoming & very friendly

Lovely people, super breakfast with a great Christmas feel

Lovely hotel with friendly hosts, very accommodating with dogs. Dinner and breakfast excellent. Room comfortable but a lower floor would have been preferable with the dog.

Great place to stay for a walking holiday on Exmoor. Coastal path and moors within easy reach. Very good breakfast and dinner menu.

Everything excellent. Location, cleanliness no more to be said

Staff were friendly and rooms were lovely. I would visit again.

Very nice and cosy hotel. Staff were very attentive and friendly

Made very welcome by Paul and Mel, nice clean ensuite double room. My pet spaniel was made welcome too. Located in the middle of town, with good parking, Id recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Porlock. Breakfast was tasty and filling, with a good choice of cooked options.

A very nice and welcoming stay

Loved the restaurant and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Sea view was a bonus

Friendly welcome. Comfortable and clean. Excellent restaurant.

Really welcoming. Room a bit small but we knew that. Nice snug to sit in downstairs. Food was fantastic and they made a good packed lunch for walkers.

Great little hotel in Porlock, not far from the coast path. Room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was nice, staff were friendly. We also ate in the restaurant which did very good food.

I enjoyed my stay at Lorna Doone. The food and Drink is AMAZING! My real poultry pie was out of this world and the breakfast was to die for! The owners were every nice in providing me with an adapter, which i think i lost :( My room was clean and comfortable, EXCEPT i couldn't get the heat to work. So I had a cold night :( Hence the 4 stars. I highly recommend this place.

The bar, restaurant and breakfast room were very tastefully decorated and furnished. Breakfast was very nice. Our room was cosy and had a sea view. Owners were friendly and helpful. All in all very good value for money.

Had a lovely 2day break here certainly recommend it.Fantastic food.

The staff were extremely helpful and really looked after us.

Very disappointing, initial greeting was certainly not welcoming ,just a waving gesture as to where the reception area was when asked. We had drinks in the bar which were reasonably priced. We requested a menu as we had decided to stay for dinner, we were advised that they were fully booked. As we were sat very close to the dining area ( and being in the hospitality business) we could not see why an extra table could not have been set up or even an offer made to eat in the bar where we were already seated. However, if they don't need the revenue so be it. On retiring I found "pubic hair" and a dead insect on my pillow,when I went back down to reception to advise the lady owner /manager she enquired " what would you like me to do"!!!! I requested it to be changed, this was actioned immediately by the gentleman owner/ manager who in my opinion is far more suited to the hospitality industry than the lady who came across as condescending and as if she was "doing the paying guest a favour". The standard of cleaning need improvement, Bathroom window sill was very dusty, carpet on stairs leading to the bedrooms needed vaccuming, fire extinguishers needed dusting.The mattress in the room we stayed needs replacing as the springs had started to rise to the top and so was most uncomfortable and to which I had felt the effects of the next day.
