The Porlock Weir Hotel
About
The Porlock Weir Hotel stands in the heart of Exmoor National Park, overlooking the historic harbour of Porlock Weir. The five‑star boutique property offers a tranquil retreat for couples, solo travellers and wellness seekers, with all rooms furnished with Hypnos beds and Devon duvets, blackout blinds and gentle lavender spray. Wake to spectacular sea views – whether from the harbour‑front rooms, the terrace bar, or the afternoon‑tea space – and enjoy the hotel's contemporary dining rooms, wood‑fired pizzas, fresh local seafood and artisanal coffee. The property is dog‑friendly, welcoming pets in a small fee, and prioritises sustainability with reduced single‑use plastics, beach clean‑ups and a garden ideal for yoga and tai chi. A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, attentive staff and wholesome, locally sourced cuisine make this coastal hideaway a memorable seaside escape.
