Comfortable room and excellent breakfast with friendly and helpful owners. We had a bedroom on the top floor overlooking the coast (steep stairs if that would concern you). Happy to accommodate our bikes. Quiet location. In the centre of the village a short walk from all that Porlock has to offer

A perfect stay in a lovely hotel. The staff were wonderfully friendly and welcoming. They are refreshingly pet friendly, so our doggy felt as welcome as we did. Our room was lovely and clean well and equipped. The evening meal was really very good indeed (lamb three ways and beef short rib) and the service was outstanding. We will certainly stay again.

Warm welcome and good vegetarian/vegan food in the evening, tasty breakfast options too. A lovely stop on the South West Coastal Path. Bedrooms comfy if a little faded, very nice public areas and a good value walkers packed lunch. Lots of nice homely touches.

A lovely family run hotel. Delightful bedroom and comfortable beds. Nothing was too much trouble. Food very good and wide choice. Breakfast was superb couldnt fault it. A very efficient young lady helped the family in all departments and they all worked very hard to make out stay so pleasant. Definitely worth visiting for a stay or a meal. Thoroughly recommend. Only grumble dont arrive before 3 pm. Door was locked so we spent an hour or two in the Royal Oak next door having a good lunch. Porlock is delightful village and everyone so friendly.

Stayed for 1 night with some friends whilst walking the pilgrims church walk. The breakfast at the lorna doone hotel was one of the best I have ever had. Quality ingredients cooked to a very high standard. It was excelent and kept us going for most of the day!

Another enjoyable evening meal at the Lorna Doone restaurant. I now always make sure to pre-book to avoid disappointment; it's easy enough to do. Staff are always welcoming and helpful and the little dining room is very cosy. This time I had a glass of delicious Merlot with the Cajun chicken, which was tasty and just at the perfect side of spicy for me. Previously I enjoyed the Lamb Three Ways and the slow cooked beef ribs. I didn't intend to have pudding, but opted again for the rhubarb & ginger affair... My companions also love the Lamb, but this time had the Saltimbocca, which they really enjoyed.

Excellent value for money, friendly and helpful staff. We booked a small double which was small but had everything we needed with nice thoughtful extras such as cotton wool pads and buds, a flask with fresh milk for tea and coffee provided. We requested an early dinner one night which was perfectly accommodated and the food was excellent. The menu was varied and interesting. We will definitely stay again, many thanks.

Not stayed at the hotel but eaten in the restaurant. Great, local food . Best food in Porlock and no more expensive than the pubs, but twice the quality. Nicely refurbished so feels like a proper restaurant. Attentive waitress.
