Wonderful pet friendly hotel.

Beautiful location. Very dog friendly. We had a king size room overlooking the harbour. It was up a few flights of stairs but this was not an issue for us. Use of guest pantry which was a lovely touch. Very good breakfast menu. All staff were very friendly and helpful.

Only one Malt Whiskey, Only one Cognac, Manager did not seem interested in our desire for choice; I have a better bar at home. Pretentious thogh tasty food. Small drab room with depresssing colour scheme, bare walls ~ no pictures.

10/10 Excellent

We love this hotel. It was our 4th visit in 4 years and it does not disappoint! The area around it is perfect for a slowed down weekend getaway full of fresh air good food and comfort. You can eat in other locations at the Weir or walk up to Porlock (bit of a long hill) or walk across to Bossington (6 mile round trip across the bay). However the pizzas on the Terrace are really great with a cider to watch the sun go down.

Had an excellent stay at The Porlock Weir Hotel. The hotel, formerly The Anchor, is under new management and has totally had a new lease of life. The decor is fresh, clean and ‘boutique’modern. Obviously the setting is to die for with beautiful harbour view rooms. Food was excellent too. The land dish I had was cooked to perfection and my partner really enjoyed his ravioli. Breakfast was also excellent. I recommend the haddock scotch egg. We had our dog with us and he was very welcome, the hotel setting us tables slightly away from the main dining room for comfort. After a walk around the harbour and to the headland we sat on the decked terrace where lots of walkers were enjoying a drink and the freshly made pizzas straight from their outdoor pizza oven. The atmosphere was relaxed and warm. There is also a lovely kitchen for the use of guests to make tea and coffee with complimentary fruit and mineral water. We all really loved this place, including the dog(!) and we will be going back very soon hopefully. Please note there is still some work ongoing in some parts of the hotel but this was of no inconvenience nor did it affect our stay in anyway (the doors only open end again in April). This is a really lovely place with a relaxed luxury feel.
