About Us

Nigel and Caroline Lamacraft took over the Bridge House Hotel in 2013 and after refurbishing, the doors of “Bridge House” have opened again as a licensed restaurant serving “proper good food”.
Having run the popular and busy “Avocet Café” in Topsham for 9 years, the couple were seeking a new challenge and a move to the country.

Bampton fitted the bill, being a thriving, small town with independent shops and a good community spirit. Nigel & Caroline were keen to stay in Devon where they both grew up.

“We both love to make the most of ingredients in season at their best and enjoy foraging in the surrounding countryside”.
