From the top of the village, stunning views stretch westwards beyond Barnstaple and Bideford along the Atlantic coast to Hartland Point.

Further up in the village centre, just past the shop, is The Millennium Green, a large field suitable for ball games and dog walking, and a secure children's playground. The Green extends to a community woodland with footpaths, a bird hide and a tiny stream ideal for paddling and damming. From the top of the village are gorgeous rural and sea views across North Devon to Hartland Point.

The village once served as a railway station on the Lynton and Barnstaple railway before the railway was demolished. Bratton's old station can still be seen, and the Devon Wildlife Trust now owns the line that followed through the woods. The railway is slowly being restored and operates along a 2-mile stretch of track from Woody Bay station, a 10-15 minute drive from your holiday cottage in Bratton Fleming on the scenic road across Exmoor to Lynton and Lynmouth.
