Very comfortable, very clean and had everything you could want. The garden is fully enclosed and our dog had a great time playing in the garden. The apartment has amazing views and is a short walk to the beach. We loved our stay here and will definitely be back.

We have been coming to Garden View for the past 5 years, such a beautiful location, easy parking,and the staff are super friendly and helpful. It is only a short walk to Porlock Weir where there are cafes, a hotel serving lovely pizzas or you can just sit and watch the world go by. Although the apartment is always clean and warm we feel that it is now in need of refurbishment .

A lovely place to stay if you like walks in beautiful countryside. The beach is pretty but not suitable for swimming and you wouldn't want to sit on it for very long as the pebbles are very large. The walk to Culbone church is well worth the effort. The walk up from Selworthy to Selworthy beacon is .... A lovely place to stay if you like walks in beautiful countryside. The beach is pretty but not suitable for swimming and you wouldn't want to sit on it for very long as the pebbles are very large. The walk to Culbone church is well worth the effort. The walk up from Selworthy to Selworthy beacon is also lovely and there is a very picturesque tea room in Selworthy serving excellent cakes. The food at Porlock Weir hotel is expensive but delicious and it's easy walking distance. There is also a pub in Porlock Weir which serves food at a decent price.
