You wouldn't find anything better than The Old Bridge, perfect hospitality, a fantastic breakfast with a big choice, a lovely homely atmosphere and a car park permit thrown in, Colin and Liz are the perfect hosts and understandably guests come back time and time again, Excellent is the only word I can use.

What a lovely place to stay. My wife and I booked it for our 47th wedding anniversary. Couldn't have booked a better place.
Colin and Liz really made us feel so welcome, Colin even presented me with a "gold" medal for lasting that long . The breakfasts were fabulous set you up for the day. They also told us some great places to eat. Room was very clean and tidy with a great shower as well. Lovely view over the estuary. Definitely highly recommended .
