RIDICULOUSLY Good Food in an Adorable English Village (A Day In Porlock, Somerset)

Come with us as we explore the lovely village of Porlock in Somerset and then have an incredible meal in Porlock Weir.

We started the day in our lovely cabin in Porlock Weir, Somerset, where we were invited to stay by The Best of Exmoor (*https://www.thebestofexmoor.co.uk/274.html and use the code lozsleisure to get £30 off any holiday cottage stay!). We then headed out on a walk into a rather grey day.

The weather didn't deter us and we were very happy to find a woodland trail that led us from Porlock Weir to Porlock. It took us about an hour to do the walk that most people would do in half the time because we stopped to take pictures and were in no particular rush.

When we arrived in Porlock, we found a beautiful gallery in an old phone box and Hannah's eye was caught by some cakes in the window of the Whortleberry Tearoom. First, we decided to have a look around the village, taking in the thatched cottages, local shops and a gallery. The rain started to spit so we decided to head back to the Whortleberry Tearoom to get a drink and a snack.

With the rain not relenting, we decided to carry on our circular walk and carried on back down the road for a short while. We saw some adorable lambs before turning down a lane to reach Porlock Marsh. For a season back in the early 20th century, the area was used as a golf course (with some pretty impressive views, I imagine!) but the regular flooding put an end to the establishment rather quickly. Since then, nature has been allowed to take over and we spotted some birdlife making the most of it.

We ended up down in Porlock Weir, where we had a little nose around on the beach and in another shop, before calling it quits and heading back to our cabin for a few hours.

After some chill time watching the birds and relaxing, it was time for us to head back into Porlock Weir to a fantastic restaurant (and boutique hotel) called Locanda on the Weir. Here we had a phenomenal, ridiculously tasty 5-course meal that we thoroughly enjoyed.
