This was a brilliant location, an excellently equipped, tastefully furnished and decorated cottage. We were three guys on a short walking break but it would be equally good for 4 adults and 2 children. I have stayed in a lot of self-catering accommodation and this was one of the very best.

The house was perfect. Not only as a base from which to explore the wonderful area, but also to relax in and be together as a family. It was very comfortable and cosy yet bright and spacious too, with lots of thoughtful touches to make your stay the best it could be. I would be very happy to recommend Highbank.

Beautifully presented house with everything you could wish for provided. Great for woodland walks and handy for Porlock and the surrounding moors. We thoroughly enjoyed our few days here and felt quite sad when it was time to leave. We came as a couple but a great property for a family holiday too. ☺
