The location was perfect,. Studio is very presentable with modern decor and furnishings. A very pleasant comfortable stay. A good base for a short stay. In terms of cooking facilities it is possible to prepare a cooked breakfast using the hob but you would struggle with an evening meal as there is no oven/grill. Breakfast options are very limited in the weir for self catering. Accommodation. Cafe and pottery shop next door had good coffee and cakes

The studio is a great place for a short break. It is recently refurbished to a high spec with a comfy bed and great shower and equipped with all the important little things. The kitchenette is ideal for making breakfast and there are great options nearby for eating out. ( Ziang's is excellent, The Hotel on the Weir does great pizzas but avoid the a la carte ( very disappointing) Top Ship in Porlock is good, the tearoom in Bossington is fab). Porlock Weir is a fabulous place to stay. The views from the big window in the studio are great, especially the morning sunrise - and the shutters ensure privacy from people passing by the window (it was August and hot, so busy at the Weir!). The owners are very welcoming and friendly. We hope to return. Oh and having the parking space was a real bonus.
