Hartshanger is an Edwardian gentleman's residence set above the village of Porlock in the heart of the Exmoor National Park. The top floor of the main house and the coach house have been converted into beautiful self-catering accommodation. Beams, sloping ceilings and patchwork quilts in the bedrooms all add to the charm of these properties. Set in the middle of about 5 acres, Hartshanger has wonderful views over Porlock Bay towards Wales.
This is a peaceful place, with the only sounds being that of the surf on the beach below and the occasional call from a seagull, buzzard, cow or sheep. It is the ideal place for those wanting to get away from it all and relax or walk our beautiful countryside. There is tennis on site and sea and river fishing, horse riding, cycling and mountain biking near by. A short 5 minute walk to the pub, restaurant or food shop.
Porlock is a lively, friendly village and there is always something going on.
The accommodation at Hartshanger Holidays comprises 2 self-catering flats known as High Hanger and Little Hanger. High Hanger is in what was the servants quarters on the second floor of the main house. It sleeps 4 with 1 double and 1 twin room. Little Hanger is in what was the old coach house. It sleeps 5, 2 double rooms and 1 single room with a cot.

High Hanger is a second floor flat with its own private entrance of stone steps leading up to the entrance door at first floor level. A further flight of interior stairs takes you up to the accommodation on the second floor. High Hanger is a beautiful flat, the photographs do not do it justice. The sitting room or garden room is a favourite with visitors with its cane furniture, huge pot plants and its great views out over the Bristol Channel towards Wales. The view from the roof is even better and is a great place for sun bathing away from prying eyes! The flat has exposed beams in almost every room (but not low enough to knock yourself out on!) and the double room has an unusual painted ceiling complete with black cat and doves.
