Welcome
Over the years, Wendy Harrison and her family have lovingly restored Bubbenhall
House. Oak beams and a splendid Jacobean staircase are features of the architecture,
and spacious ground floor areas include an elegant dining room and a choice
of sumptuous lounges. The surrounding woods are carpeted with bluebells in
the spring and are home to one of only two dormouse sanctuaries in England.
The house is located in the heart of Warwickshire,
between Royal Leamington Spa and Coventry, ideal for Warwick, Kenilworth, the
NEC, Stoneleigh Park and Centrex (Police Training). Read

As well as offering fantastic food, comfort and rural English countryside, the
house is a much loved home for Wendy and her family and offers the high standards
of an AA 4 diamond accredited Bed and Breakfast.

The house is set in five acres of ancient woodland and is home to a wonderful
array of local flora and fauna. Visitors to the gardens include badgers, Muntjac
