The cottage was as described clean warm and very holiday friendly , would recommend for a quite relaxing break, Unfortunately we had to leave early due to some building work which both the owner and holiday company were totally unaware of and was not scheduled to the end of season, both the owner and Holiday company were very professional in dealing with the situation which was not of their fault, we were refunded for our lost days quickly and without fuss , Would highly recommend Milbanke cottage and Helpful Holidays and would have no problem again staying at this loverly cottage and using Helpful Holidays, RECOMMENDED Alan Ayton,

“This is our second visit to Milbanke and we hope to return in the near future.”

We initially went to Helpful Holidays five years ago because it was a small company covering a limited area so were rather concerned when you joined forces with Sykes. Our experience with other companies that have become part of something larger has not always been good. We hope you can keep your niche and fantastic customer service.

“Location is superb this cottage is a hidden gem, although far enough away to have peace and privacy just a 10 minute walk to the nearest pub along the beach, not saying too much as we want to visit again, selfish yes but you would be too if you stayed there, 10 out of 10 .”

“The cottage was excellent, well equipped and comfy and warm.”

The location was excellent, peaceful, secluded and having access to the beach was a brilliant plus for us, the children and the dog. It was great to be able to let the children (they're 10 and 12) go off and explore on their own and have some freedom and the dog was happy on the beach all day long! It made for a happy holiday for all of us. Exploring the local beach and woods was also exciting as we discovered all the old tunnels to the old manor house. Highly recommended the house and location as can easily walk to Porlock Weir and pub. We'd happily book the cottage again and only ever use Helpful Holidays for any cottage booking in the South West as we have always found their service and cottages on their books to be excellent. Thank you.

The property

This semi-detached cottage is converted from stables on the estate which belonged to Lord Byron?s daughter, at the end of a no-through lane a mile from Porlock Weir and two miles from Porlock.

Welcoming and relaxing, it is lovely accommodation for families or anyone seeking peace, good walks and challenging cycling.

From the entrance hall, turn to one side and you will see the big sitting room for curling up by the open fire, enjoying sociable meals or throwing open the French windows to the garden on a sunny day.

To the other side of the hall is the kitchen with breakfast table for a morning pot of coffee.

You will find sea views from all three upstairs bedrooms across the dramatic coastline.

A private path leads you to the pebbly beach, 150 yards from the cottage.

Around the cottage you have lawns over different levels and steep in places.

Opposite the cottage is your big enclosed garden where there is a little stream.

This is a perfect location for the great outdoors, with a beach, Exmoor?s heather hills and valleys and pretty villages all around.
