Mrs Adams November 2024

We stayed for a wet and windy weekend in November. Despite the inhospitable weather we felt very cosy and comfortable at Meadowbank. Beautifully and sympathetically restored, this building provided plenty of space for a family with two older teens who enjoyed having their own space, and our springer spaniel who just enjoys holidays! This felt like a very Famous Five kind of house, a perfect base for adventures into Exmoor. Would definitely return....

We instantly felt at home at Meadowbank - it has such a lovely feel about it. Absolutely loved our time there & would very happily return.

Meadowbank is one of those magical places you come across so rarely. We found it by accident. A very happy little accident that gave us lots of lovely memories in a unique place we called 'home' for a week. We loved it all from the moment we stepped through the front door. From the beautifully bold movie posters to the mid-century artwork that adorns the bright, white walls... The big, old, wooden kitchen table and mismatched chairs, the brass taps and bathroom radiators and funky table lamps. With pretty cushions on comfy sofas, and pebbles, lots of pebbles sitting proudly on garden walls, over fireplaces and windowsills to remind you that the sea is just a hop, skip and a jump away. The view from the gorgeous windows on every floor stop you in your tracks. Not only is it wonderfully light and airy in the house, but it was a joy to wake up and see a valley of neatly mown green grass and tree-loaded hills, thatched rooftops and chimney stacks...and a glimpse of the sea from almost every window. Just perfect. The patio was amazing, too. We love a huge patio, and Meadowbank's deck beckons you outside... It's great for reading a book amongst the greenery, sharing a drink or an alfresco meal, skipping (yes, there's a couple of skipping ropes on the patio) or watching the sun set over Porlock, whilst listening to the local children play tennis or kick a ball around. Porlock is an exceptionally pretty and tidy little town with a good mix of shops, a couple of galleries, gift shops, a museum, a church (with a 1000 year old Yew tree) and a clutch of pubs, as well as a visitor centre. It's a super base for walkers and perfect for trips to Porlock Weir, Lynton and Lynmouth, Lee Bay, Bossington, Allerford, Dunster Castle and Brendon...to name a few. From Porlock we also went to the amazing Craft Festival at Bovey Tracy, Devon on the weekend of our stay, which was just 1.5 hours south of us. An easy round trip across the stunning Exmoor countryside. A wonderful holiday in a truly wonderful home. ...

Meadow bank is a lovely, quirky, homely house with outstanding views. There are a lot of steps outside up to and down from the house due to its lofty position, so not suitable for those with mobility issues, but the location is fantastic. We loved it....

Beautiful, characterful house in a great location. Relaxed feel, quiet, great views. Walks, beaches and attractions close by or just relax on the beautiful deck and garden if you prefer. House had lots of space and at the same time had a homely feel. Nicely decorated and comfortable, all the facilities you could wish for. A perfect stay, very impressed. Would return and highly recommend....
