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.

There are some beautiful sunsets over the Bristol Channel and Wales and these can be enjoyed whilst sitting out on the terrace on a summers evening.
