Bracken House
No. 17B (2961)
A short distance from the centre of the pretty Devon village of Bratton Fleming, amidst seven acres of gardens is the old rectory known as Bracken House. Home to Sue and Guy Sherratt, and their two children since 2009 it is now a welcoming family home offering quite wonderful luxury bed and breakfast B&B accommodation. Antiques and art sit comfortably alongside relaxed furnishings and the library is packed with interesting books. A Devon cream tea on arrival is served in the library or on fine days outside on the plant-filled terrace.
Bracken House was once home to Reverend Wodehouse, uncle of PG Wodehouse who is known to have stayed here, perhaps drawing inspiration for some of his colourful characters. The B&B guest accommodation features rooms that are suitably named ‘Jeeves, 'Wooster’ and 'Emsworth'. The 'Jeeves' and 'Wooster' B&B rooms have double beds whilst ‘Emsworth' is a twin and all three have en suite bathrooms bathrooms furnished with the luxury finishing touches you would expect from a Wolsey Lodge bed and breakfast. Delicious breakfasts, and evening meal if you choose, feature local produce and seasonal offerings from the garden.
Outside the wonderful views across the surrounding countryside extend across Devon and on clear days to the sea and across to Appledore and Hartland Point.
