Standard British pub experience. Worryingly poor on cleanliness and state of room (e.g. broken shelf in bathroom). Good mateess. Host unable to find room at first. Host did not respond to message on Expedia reserving table and nothing reserved. Dinner basic pub fayre. Breakfast forced to choose between toast or cereal or full English. Good range of beer but unable to advise on local gin. Pub well used by locals and good atmosphere. Lovely situation in centre of village. Quiet.

Comfortable base for hiking

The owners were really hospitable, breakfast was delicious. Prices in the bar were reasonable. Room was clean and comfortable with fabulous shower over the bath. Only small niggle was a slight dog odour when we arrived. On-street parking outside is unlimited after 6pm until 8am. Pay and display car parks nearby. Regular bus service into Minehead. Plenty of bridleway paths within easy reach of the hotel. Great base for first section of the South West Coast Path.

Such friendly people. We stayed in an annexe to the rear of The Castle which had been recently done or refurbished. A good size room with an excellent on suite complete with a power shower. Breakfast was good and we were well looked after by Patsy each morning who was great. We also ate there a couple of evenings, food was well priced, quality produce and tasty but its not fine dining, its hearty pub grub. The location in Porlock is central, parking is not at the hotel but a couple of minutes walk away, however, there are some 20 min spaces opposite which are great for dropping off lugage etc. All in all, a very comfortable stay and great value for money.

Really lovely owners and bar staff, younger girl waitering in the evening was a bit miserable which stood out a bit as all the other staff were so lovely. The owners really look after you and are so accommodating, genuinely kind, nice people as weโ€™re the bar staff. The room was clean and modern and perfect for our family stay of four, with young children aged 7 & 9. I canโ€™t believe this is only a three star hotel, as it went way above this. The breakfast was really good as well. This is a lovely bar/hotel in the heart of the Village, itโ€™s got a lovely warm, homely, safe atmosphere, with lovely people who obviously live locally going there as well as holiday makers from all over the place. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be staying again. Great location to see local areas of interest and price wise was a bargain in comparison to other place, we really landed on our feet here. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Nice spot to stay if walking the coast path

Very peaceful and enjoyable stay.for one night stopover whilst walking the SW Coast Path. Quick, easy, friendly check-in. Nice, quiet, refurbished room with excellent shower and comfy bed.

We have stayed at the Castle Inn quite a few times now and have always found it to be excellent, The staff are always very friendly and welcoming and go the extra mile to make sure you have a good stay. It is right in the heart of the village of Porlock and an excellent base to explore Exmoor! We will definitely be back!
