The region
Bratton Fleming is a small village on the edge of Exmoor National Park, set in the lovely Bray valley between Barnstaple and South Molton.
This is a peaceful, well-placed base for exploring both the wild Exmoor moorland and the spectacular North Devon coastline. The village sits on the A399 between Barnstaple (8 miles) and Blackmoor Gate, the crossroads at the heart of Exmoor, making it easy to head in any direction for walking, beaches, or sightseeing.
Village Amenities
Bratton Fleming has a traditional village pub -- The White Hart Inn -- serving food and drink, a parish church, and a village hall that hosts occasional events. The award-winning Exmoor Zoo is based right here in the village, attracting visitors from across the region.
Nearby Shopping
The nearest shops and supermarkets are in Barnstaple (8 miles), which has Tesco, Sainsbury's, and a range of independent shops around its historic Pannier Market. South Molton (7 miles) is a handsome market town with good independent shops, a butcher, and everyday essentials. Both towns are an easy 15-minute drive.
For a wider range of shopping, Barnstaple is the main town for North Devon and has most high street stores, banks, and services.
Stayed at the lovely Bratton Mill Cottage for a few days with family. Ideal location and perfect sized cottage. Communication with the hosts could have been better, had an issue with the heating which meant the property was quite damp. This didn't ruin our stay though, and we still had a lovely time. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. Thank you

Ein zauberhaftes Cottage im englischen Stil
Eine sehr schöne, liebevoll eingerichtete alte Wohnung mit englischem Flair und herzlichem Empfang. Gut ausgestattet, sogar ein Grill ist vorhanden, und mit toller Lage am Fluss. Wer Einsamkeit und Natur liebt, ist dort gut aufgehoben. Von dem Cottage aus kann man gut Wanderungen im Exmoor unternehmen und bequem nach Barnstable fahren.

Beautiful secluded cottage
We stayed here for a short break (4 nights) with our kids aged 6 and 9. We wanted a central spot, both close to the north coast (Ilfracombe) and west coast (Saunton, Westward Ho! etc), and this fit the bill perfectly. Lovely little stream the kids had great fun playing in, with blissful surroundings. The cottage was cosy and had everything we needed. Shower super strong and comfy beds...great trip. Thanks

TLC
Location fantastic, idyllic in fact however the condition of the property itself left a lot to be desired. The description said recently redecorated. We walked in and the smell of mould, damp and fusty was over powering. We left with all our clothing both worn and not worn smelling so bad it all had to be thoroughly cleaned. Curtains were dirty and covered in dust and cobwebs. What could have been an amazing break left us very disappointed and smelling fusty and damp. The property needs severe TLC

Peaceful retreat
The pressures of the world melt away in this beautiful valley in gorgeous north Devon; a well appointed 17th century cottage surrounded by dense deciduous woodland, with a sun-trap garden and babbling brook, Bratton Mill Cottage transports you back to happier, simple times.
We'd highly recommend staying here - our family and dog can't wait to come back time and again.
