should be supervised at all times. The former garage has been converted

walk (about 50m) to access footpaths leading to the coast and to joing
a myriad of routes including to Porlock Weir, Bossington, Selworthy and
more! Parking There is off-road parking on the drive for one car. It is
possible to fit two smaller cars if you are happy to leave the gate
open. Pets Description Up to two well behaved dogs are welcome per
booking, for £15 supplement each. Please do not allow your dogs on the
furniture and do not leave them alone in the property at any time.
Sorry, strictly no cats. Restricted mobility Cherries is a bungalow so
it’s all on the ground floor but there are two steps up into the
property through the front door. There is an alternative entrance via
the integral garage, which provides access to the rear garden also,
from here there are two steps up into the kitchen. Therefore the
property may or may not be suitable for someone with limited mobility.
Exit in case of emergency The Fire Safety information is provided in
the cottage Christmas / New Year Christmas decorations are not provided
in Cherries. The region
Porlock is a historic village on the edge of Exmoor National Park in
Somerset, in a sheltered vale between the moor and the Bristol Channel
coast. Its heritage stretches back to Saxon times.
The meandering High Street is lined with independent shops, including a
traditional butcher, chemist, hardware shop, post office, two
convenience stores, art galleries, a chocolate shop, and a cash
machine. Most shops keep hours of 9am to 5pm, often extending during
the summer season.
The harbour hamlet of Porlock Weir is approximately one mile to the
west and makes a lovely walk or a short drive. There you will find a
15th-century tidal harbour, a pub, restaurants, cafes, and independent
shops and galleries.
Minehead is the nearest town, approximately 6 miles away. Here you will
find larger supermarkets and petrol stations (Tesco and Morrisons on
the outskirts with longer opening hours), most major high street banks
with cash machines, and a range of other shops. EV charging points are
available at Porlock Central Car Park.
