Lovely room with a private sitting area immediately outside. Gardens were beautiful. Cathy was an attentive hostess who took an interest in us and added several extra touches to make our stay enjoyable. Numerous coffee choices were provided in our room. We appreciated the Australian port which she left for us when we arrived and enjoyed a wonderful breakfast with home made jams the next morning. I loved the gift of a special soap she gave me when we left. All in all, we had a wonderful stay with a lovely hostess.

Lovely location, and the owners were absolutely great!! Kitchen was well equipped and we didn’t need to bring anything apart from food. The wine and snacks are very welcome after a long drive. Julie-Anne was so nice and great with the kids.

The property was great, the location was walking distance to the shops. Everything was lovely. We went to the local pub in Bridgetown for dinner and that was really nice, the food was great.
My only negative, when choosing a property, consider what the shared facilities are. I was hesitant with confirming this booking as it was with shared kitchen and lounge area. I have not stayed at accommodation where facilities are shared.
Though the positive feedback the property has received changed my mind and I went through with the booking.
Upon arrival at the property, I felt like I'd interrupted a get together. There was drinking and smoking, music and it just felt really uncomfortable. The fridge space, which was supposed to be shared, was full up. The other guests had their belonging everywhere. It was just not okay.
The host herself was shocked by this, and we were later moved to another room, though there was no kitchen. The next day we moved back to our booked room. The previous guests had left and there was a different couple, it was so much nicer as they were considerate.

Bridgetown is full of colorful characters always willing to chat. The main street has a variety of cafes and eating places plus three pubs all of which do food. Take a few moments to walk by the river and unwind. There are a variety of shops in the high street but take note most only open Wednesday to Sunday.

It is the place of our retirement in 36 months, so we travel there to work on our block. Bridgetown has only 1 restaurant and thats the pub, which isn,t to bad. But if you want more places to dine drive half an hour to Manjimup, TALL TIMBERS, AND CILANTROS.
For breakfast in Bridgetown go to the mulberry tree Sadly closed on Sundays. There is another place but would not recommend it.

Charming town with much to enchant and delight!
Charming town with much to enchant and delight! The surrounding countryside is stunning and with both Nannup and Donnybrook a short drive away there is plenty to occupy a few days.
The Thai Cafe does a delicious evening meal and the IGA has everything you could need. The various pubs are also great for a meal too.

Enjoyed the Visitor Centre Jig-Saw exhibits and the people there were really friendly. It's an easy place to get around the only downside was that places to eat were few as they were closed by the afternoon and we ended up getting a salad and some cold meat from the Supermarket where the girl on the check-out advised they had free cutlery and servettes. Bridgetown has the best Chiropractor - Dr Anthony Manning in Steere Street.

Lovely old buildings in Main Street. Great Cidery.
Lovely old buildings in Main Street. Great Cidery. Great bridge over the Blackwood River. Lovely walks near river and through town. Good coffee shops. IGA is exceptionally good and reasonable price compared to Perth western suburbs. Loved the renovation done to “Sew” shop.
The hotel is a traditional old pub right on the main road through Bridgetown, the man who checked us in, served our drinks, took our dinner order and served us was so nice and friendly. The food was good pub food, nothing fancy but the room was warm and lively even on a cold rainy Monday night.
The room has been renovated in recent years with a very large bathroom, the rooms all open onto the wide verandah and are spacious.
Couldn’t really ask for more in a country town !
What a beautiful old colonial hotel right in the centre of town. Rooms are big and the bathrooms are huge. Extensively refurbed in recent years with high quality fittings and furnishing, it really is lovely. The rooms are also really clean and well maintained with all the amenities you need. Plus you’re right above a great pub with nice food. One of the nicest rural pub style hotels I’ve ever stayed in. What a gem.
Location was beautifully presented and maintained, with views of the river and manicured gardens can highly recommend. A full cooked breakfast or continental was offered which was included in the accommodation price which presented super value, we chose a cooked breakfast which the hosts cooked for us along with some great conversation. Will definitely stay again when next in Bridgetown.
Fantastic base while we cycled in Se\/en over the weekend. Rick and Kate were very welcoming and breakfast was delicious - they have made a very comfortable placed to stay. Loved the view over the gardens and Blackwood river, we even went for a walk along the river just before sunset. The birdlife comes up quite close to the balcony - loved seeing the little wrens!
A fab place to stay in Bridgetown. Cathy was the perfect host, with lots of little extras generously provided (homemade cake, chocs, port etc). Close to town (possibly not walking distance). Comfy bed and everything you could possibly need. Fantastic continental breakfast. Spotless accommodation. Excellent dinner recommendation also.
Beautiful home and garden and the hosts were so welcoming and friendly. The bed was super comfy which made a restful sleep. Great location and lovely walk into town or short drive. Would highly recommend the accommodation to anyone looking at staying over in Bridgetown.
Location is central to other small towns, easy walk into bridgetown.
Delicious breakfast freah eggs bacon homemade yoghurt etc in a beautiful hall.
Very friendly staff, we arrived after hours but lights in room left on with heater on so very comfortable.
Lovely and peaceful location in the hills in Bridgetown, with a short drive to the center of town and access to routes going south, north, and to the shore. Hosts are wonderful, friendly, and helpful. All this, and home baked bread for breakfast!
Breakfast was spot on. Great location up on the hill overlooking Bridgetown. Remove yourself from the daily life and appreciate the tranquility, peaceful surroundings and postcard views. Well worth a visit and will certainly stay again.
Rooms comfortable and clean. Available cooking facilities for family at premise (bcoz limited restaurants at down town Bridgetown). Enjoyed the simple breakfast served by friendly staff.
Beautiful location overlooking the Blackwood River. Rick and Kate were very warm and welcoming and provided a delicious cooked breakfast each morning. Great value and highly recommend.
everything about this property was amazing. The scenery, Bridgetown and the house were exceptional. The house was extremely accommodating, clean and very well set up.
Amazing hosts Jeff and Danni , nothing was too much trouble and a wealth of knowledge about Bridgetown and what to do. Beautiful hosts with a fabulous property.
