  • "We really enjoyed our stay at Bridge Lake Farm."

    The accommodation was excellent. The furnishings were of a high standard, comfortable and clean. The location was perfect, with stunning views over the lake. The individual pontoons were an added bonus! Our hosts were welcoming and we will certainly be coming back.

  • "What amazing use of an unusual space all the comforts of home and spotlessly clean."

    The view over the lake was very pretty especially in the evenings with the reflection of the lights fron the lodges opposite reflecting on the water. Having the hot tub and garden furniture under a canopy was an added bonus for us as the weather wasn’t great. Thank you Brendan and will hopefully be back soon.

  • "Wow! What a wonderful place."

    We had an amazing weekend, the tunnel is exactly as described, has been decorated to a fantastic standard and the attention to detail was wonderful. Brendan was so helpful and welcoming and took great care showing us around and how everything worked. He even got the hot tub going so it was ready for our arrival. We enjoyed a lovely long walk in the countryside, long afternoons at the local pub who again were very friendly and the hot tub was a real treat to relax in every evening. We can’t wait to come back soon for another complete relax and enjoy the beautiful views.

    Its high end finish is gorgeous with a fabulously comfy big bed. The large private garden and hot tub were the icing on the cake. We recharged, chilled and went for a short walk (the hot tub called us back!) Perfect
