Mrs Wilkinson April 2025

We had a wonderful week's holiday at Meadowbank with all our family. The house was all we expected and more...with bags of character. We felt at home straight away and were all sorry to leave. The house is in a beautiful, peaceful setting just a few minutes walk from Porlock and there are plenty of lovely walks, beaches and places to visit nearby. The terrace was a lovely place to relax, enjoy a BBQ and soak up the evening sun after a busy day. Our 2 grandchildren (aged 3 and 7) loved the garden and having the recreation ground and playground so accessible through the gate at the bottom of the garden. ...

Meadowbank is a stylish house in a stunning location. The views down into Porlock and out to the sea were wonderful to enjoy from the decking area. Porlock is a lovely village with great places to eat and interesting shops to browse in. The house was also a fantastic base for walking; there are multiple beautiful and varied walks straight from the door, we all wished our stay was longer so we could do them all!...

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....

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. ...
