A good place for our overnight stay. The bed was massive and comfortable. Room was clean as was en-suite although a shower would improve this setting. Breakfast was good and host was amicable.

There was plenty of free parking. The room was spacious but smelled like wet dog. The window didn’t open (probably deliberately) but there was no fan in the bathroom. There was nowhere to put any toiletries in the bathroom; a shelf would be a useful addition. There was a shower attachment on the bath taps but nowhere to hook it up and no shower curtain so taking a shower was impossible without getting everywhere wet through. Breakfast was good. Lots of choice and the food was good.

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.
