Porlock 0.5 miles.
Woodedge is a delightful mid-terrace cottage tucked away in the peaceful woodland valley of Hawkcombe, just half a mile from the charming village of Porlock in Somerset.
This characterful property is ideal for couples or small families looking for a tranquil rural retreat in the heart of Exmoor National Park.
Surrounded by nature and offering an enclosed garden and traditional features, it’s a welcoming base for walkers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts.
Enter through stable-style doors into the open-plan living area, where you’ll find a compact but well-appointed kitchen, a small woodburning stove for warmth on cooler evenings, a television for relaxed viewing, and a folding dining table with seating for four.
The interior is simple and inviting, with thoughtful details throughout.
A distinctive wrought iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor, where two comfortable bedrooms—a double and a twin—share a bright bathroom complete with a bath and overhead shower.
Outside, a footbridge over a gentle stream leads to a private enclosed garden with outdoor furniture, ideal for enjoying breakfast in the morning sunshine or a quiet drink in the evening.
Porlock offers a selection of independent shops, traditional pubs, and friendly cafés, all within easy reach.
Local highlights include the scenic South West Coast Path, the picturesque harbour at Porlock Weir, and the ancient woodland of Horner.
Venture further to explore the sweeping moorland of Dunkery Beacon, the postcard-perfect village of Selworthy, or the seaside town of Minehead, home to a sandy beach, heritage railway, and family attractions.
History lovers will enjoy a visit to nearby Dunster Castle and its medieval village.
Woodedge provides a peaceful and well-positioned base for discovering the natural beauty and timeless appeal of Exmoor and the Somerset coast.
