This is the fourth time we have stayed in the past year so we must love it. It's very handy for walking all around and the views are perfect. I still have a problem with the bath which is difficult to get in and out of. We were disappointed because there was no milk or biscuits otherwise the perfect place.

Our return to the Bridge coincided with a Scottish Indian summer which allowed us to make full use of the new garden furniture. Made more comfortable inside by two new loungers and everything possible to make our stay perfect.
