Informal, relaxing Bed & Breakfast accommodation at Bressingham Hall - once home to Alan Bloom MBE VMH—one of the greatest plantsmen of the 20th century and founder of Blooms Nurseries Ltd., offers From 1st April until 31st October we welcome B & B guests to this listed Georgian style house set in the picturesque setting of the Bressingham Gardens. It is set right in the heart of the world renowned Bressingham Gardens, close to the Bressingham Steam Experience and Blooms of Bressingham Plant Centre.
Alan Bloom began offering bed and breakfast nearly 20 years ago, and now with upgrading of facilities, Bressingham Hall has been accepted by Alastair Sawday for the latest issue of the Bed and Breakfast for Garden Lovers Guide to be published in February 2009.
Guests are free to wander in the Dell Garden at any time and also Foggy Bottom and the adjacent gardens and Steam Museum including the ‘Dad’s Army Museum’ and Blooms of Bressingham Plant Centre during normal opening hours. The family nursery, managed by Alan’s grandson Jason Bloom is just over the road where by prior arrangement you can collect your own little bit of Bressingham to take home for your own garden.
