Bromans Barn is an elegant mix of ecological build and sympathetic historical renovation. The cottage is situated right beside Mersea Islands wonderful Cudmore Nature reserve. The Experience On the lovely Mersea Island, Bromans Barn is situated beside a very special Nature Reserve which rolls down to the sea.  It is a romantic self-catering cottage for two with an elegant mix of ecological build and sympathetic historical renovation. The farmhouse dates back to 1320 and was once one of the major farmhouses on the island.  This is a creative conversion of an old barn; impressively spacious but also very cosy and relaxing. The sun streams in through the many windows and in the evenings there is a lovely cosy wood burning stove to enjoy.  The owners welcome guests to this lovely cottage with a bottle of wine and biscuits. Cottage Walk Through At the end of the pretty courtyard of the historic Bromans farmhouse sits the lovely Bromans Barn, in front of it is a shingle patio partially shaded by the branches of an old tree offering shade to guests enjoying an evening drink and of course the odd free range chicken dozing in the suntrap. You enter this old barn through double French Doors straight into the main room with its traditional Suffolk White brick floor extending throughout the cottage. The high arched ceiling and ancient beams give this place an airy feeling and the cleverly designed lowered ceiling areas draw you into the cosy sitting area with the big Wood burning stove and comfy sofa  and the kitchen area. Bromans Barn is all on one floor and has a very large wet room, it is ideal for guests who have limited mobility. Please call us to discuss this further. There is a very well equipped kitchen and dining table at the far end of the room and a wide curtained entrance to the bedroom at the other end. Please note that this cottage cannot accept babies or children - sorry Pets: We can accept up to 2 well behaved doggies in this cottage (no cats – sorry), the price is £25 pw per dog or £15 for less than a week – this payment can be taken after booking, if not possible online. The Gardens There are two patio areas immediately outside the cottage with tables, chairs and deckchairs for guests to sit and enjoy this historic farm. Outside This beautiful Essex holiday cottage is right beside Mersea Islands famous Cudmore Nature Reserve. Bromans will suit guests who enjoy a good walk, the seaside, and some really good and unusual seafood restaurants. This is an excellent place to enjoy the rich wildlife that Mersea Island offers, from the comfort of a romantic barn conversion on a lovely old farm; it is just a short stroll through the adjacent Nature Reserve to the beach. As this is a pet friendly cottage you can really exhaust a dog with walks straight from the cottage. There are special walks laid out where you can enjoy the beauty of the salt marshes where seals bask. You become very aware of the ever changing relationship between sky, marsh and sea as you wander along these coastal paths. Bromans Barn has a special appeal - not only is it next to this famous country park but also just minutes’ walk from the sea and the Pyefleet Estuary. Mersea Island is well known for its oyster beds and wonderful harbour side restaurants like 'The Company Shed'. If you decide to check this one out remember to get there at least an hour or two before lunch time - you'll see why when you get issued with a ticket in the big queue – and it really is just a shed, and yes you have to bring your own bread and wine ! But all the famous chefs have been there. Take a ferry trip from Cudmore Park landing stage to Brightlingsea across the estuary, which is rather fun - great fish and chips there too. Green Credentials Bromans Barn is very eco-friendly – it has sheep’s wool insulation and a ground heat source pump supplying hot water and under floor heating - it also has organic vegetable and herb beds for guests to freely use. The Barn has been renovated using many reclaimed and locally sourced materials, the work carried out by expert craftsmen specialising in Historic renovation and ecological builds. There is a wealth of wildlife and flora that has resulted in the Nature Reserve being created to protect it and with the sea shore just a few hundred meters away there are some special walks along the coast to enjoy seeing seals and picking up fossils. In the fields around the farm you may catch sight of the hares and badgers and if you're lucky, red squirrels, along with some wonderful birdlife. East Mersea is a recognised stopping point for many of the migratory birds coming to the UK over the different seasons. Read more about Mersea Island.
