MAXWELTON HOLIDAY COTTAGE, PORLOCK

4 STAR ACCOMMODATION, (Sleeps 6)

Offering a high standard of 4 star self-catering accommodation, combined with breathtaking sea views, Maxwelton offers the perfect peaceful retreat from which one can simply relax and unwind or explore the beauty of Exmoor either by car, bicycle, horse or on foot. For those wanting to get away from it all Maxwelton is situated in a peaceful location in Porlock but is only a couple of minutes walk from the village centre.

Following complete refurbishment Maxwelton offers a high standard of self contained accomodation including newly fitted kitchen (with new electric cooker), new bathroom and wc, new carpeting throughout. A log burner has been installed for those wishing to relax around a fire on cold winter evenings. Having been owned by the family for over 25 years we have many happy memories of enjoyable times spent here and have therefore furnished it to a high standard to make it a comfortable homely environment for ourselves as well as for our guests.

Because the property is built on a hillside, the living accommodation for Maxwelton is upstairs.
