Heron House Bampton

Heron House, 50 BROOK STREET, Bampton, EX16 9LY

Rooms from £75

First time visitors to Heron House cannot help but be charmed by this delightful Georgian town house with its beautiful walled garden in the center of the ancient village of Bampton. A quiet ambiance prevails in the interior of the house with an elegant drawing room and cosy dining room furnished with a mix of contemporary and fine antiques and art. The effortlessly chic style continues upstairs where you will sleep soundly in one of three spacious bedrooms (one with a 4 poster bed) each with their own private or en suite bathroom and where dedication to guests comfort is evident. Your host Fiona together with her 3 Working Cocker Spaniels (Daisy Hebe and Coco) offers the friendliest of welcome. Fiona is an accomplished cook and a keen gardener. A visit to the National Trust property of Knightshayes Court and gardens is a must for any entheusiastic gardener staying staying at Heron House and Fiona will recommend other gardens such as Cothay Manor Rosemoor and Hestercombe amongst others for you to visit during your stay. Bampton is set in the foothills of Exmoor National Park and is 10 minutes from Dulverton 30 from both North and South Devon beaches and is an ideal base for walking cycling (southwest Route No. 3 goes past the front door) riding shooting wind surfing surfing sailing and bird watching.Set yourself up for the day with a scrumptious breakfast using fresh local produce cooked on the Aga and served in the dining room. If you come back wet from a soggy walk we will even dry your clothes! Daisy Hebe and Coco welcome other smaller well behaved dogs for a small fee.
