Directions
For Bossington turn off the A39 through Allerford. From entrance of NT car park (P + D) turn right and right again and follow track and footpath to the old kilns.
For Porlock Weir take the B3225 from Porlock to the village; park only in P + D car park.Accessibility
Paths on Porlock Marsh and to Gore Point are mostly flat but narrow and can be muddy, so neither site is particularly wheelchair friendly, though you can usefully sea-watch from benches in Porlock Weir car park. Toilets at both car parks, and other facilities in villages or in Porlock.
