KingIn the perfect situation on the edge of the rugged Exmoor National Park and on the stunning West Somerset coastline, Meadowbank is a stylish and beautiful home from which to explore the local area.
In the summer you can sit on the patio enjoying views over Exmoor, Porlock Recreation Ground and beyond to the sea; take a cup of tea whilst planning your days exploring. The open plan kitchen/dining-room is a space that all the family can enjoy; from taking breakfast together or an evening spent catching up over dinner. The sitting-room is a place to cosy up in, on those autumn nights in front of the fire.
On the first floor there are three light and airy bedrooms, all with sea and moor views and a modern family bathroom. In addition to the main bathroom, there is also a useful utility/shower-room. Meadowbank has been sympathetically furnished and reflects the character of the house.
Stairs take you to the second floor, where the last bedroom is nestled in the eaves with sea views (please be careful as some areas have limited headspace). From this bedroom, is an en suite shower-room.
Outside, the garden is split level; from the patio there are two sets of steep steps down to the lawn. Please be careful when using the steps and children should be supervised. You can directly access the recreation ground through a gate at the bottom of the garden; this 5.5 acre site includes a children's play area, football pitches and tennis courts, which are free to use. From the house you can walk straight onto Exmoor National Park, it's a bit of a climb but will be worth it for the views! This area of the county is undoubtedly a walker's paradise. Beautiful and unique Portlock Marsh and Bossington Bay are just a short walk away.
Porlock has a good selection of shops and places to eat and it's just a short walk into the village from the house. Also nearby is Dunster, a very attractive medieval village with cobbled streets, an old packhorse bridge and ancient castle. There are many places to explore in the national park - from Tarr Steps to Winsford Hill - each day could bring a new adventure.
The South West Coast Path from Porlock Weir, will give you glorious views of the coast and its quaint appearance gives you a feel for how things once were. There are sandy beaches too - Blue Anchor Beach is a lovely place for a sandy stroll!
