This was our 10th visit to the Bridge The accommodation is very comfortable very clean and welcoming. It was a lovely surprise to find new bathrooms and kitchen when we arrived this year. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The views from the windows are beautiful we will no doubt visit again next year for the 11th time we would highly recommend this place.

We have been visiting The Bridge since 2005 and love it. The flat it self is comfortable and well equipped. This year the addition of a new king sized bed is a great. I have introduced my family to the flat. The location is fabulous, with lots of walks locally. The only downside is the closure of The Anchor in the village.
