The Crows Nest is a beautiful period property situated in a lovely quiet location overlooking the sea. The views are stunning. Porlock weir has a lovely pub with friendly staff . An ideal location for a quiet rest. The coastal path is close by and Porlock village only 2 miles down the road. The property had all we needed for our short break . I would love to return some day .

Could not fault the fantastic location with stunning views And so many walks around the area. House was spotless on arrival. Porlock Weir is fairly quiet but has a good choice of places to eat including a busy pub, hotel, take away and even oysters which are caught fresh daily . Overall a great stay .

We were very pleased to be returning for another stay in this charming well-equipped cottage. The sea views and the setting are as lovely as ever and we had wonderful walks both from the door and from a short car ride away. The area has pleasant pubs and many nice places for tea with delicious cakes.
