The Castle is in a great location in the centre of Porlock. On arrival we were allocated a room but had to change to another as it wasn't in any fit state to stay in. Our second room was okay, a few high level cobwebs but generally clean. Breakfast again was okay. No orange juice, only one mushroom no matter how small, not many baked beans and just the one slice of toast. They don't do poached eggs either, only fried or scrambled. The tea and coffee was only warm as well. The bar is a good place to have a drink in the evenings though.

Such friendly people. We stayed in an annexe to the rear of The Castle which had been recently done or refurbished. A good size room with an excellent on suite complete with a power shower. Breakfast was good and we were well looked after by Patsy each morning who was great. We also ate there a couple of evenings, food was well priced, quality produce and tasty but its not fine dining, its hearty pub grub. The location in Porlock is central, parking is not at the hotel but a couple of minutes walk away, however, there are some 20 min spaces opposite which are great for dropping off lugage etc. All in all, a very comfortable stay and great value for money.

No hot water in my room. When I pointed this out they suggested I turn it on , flush the toilet and hot water would flow. It did but is this satisfactory ; intnink we expect hot water in hotel rooms. Tv had to be unplugged to turn it off. I maybe thought I would be offered a reduction in charge but no. A shame as the village is lovely and many features of the pub are nice.
