The staff were friendly, lovely and clearly trying hard. However, our sink in the room was cracked and not a proper shower and I couldn’t be bothered to use the bath. Breakfast was okay but it was too greasy for me and no yogurts but rice pots? It was okay.

Amazing stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the Bridge. Lovely comfy huge bed! Beautiful bedroom. It was quiet and great location - very short walk to pubs, restaurants and local shops. The staff member we met not sure if it was the owner was very welcoming. Delicious full breakfast. Will definitely be back there.

Our stay was lovely our room was beautiful and the host Hans was absolutely superb,nothing was to much trouble.He was welcoming friendly and chatty. The only downside with our room was there was only 1 socket in the room.(Difficult when both needing phones and electrical equipment charged.Also the room did not have a mirror.
