Guests say

The Bridewell is a beautifully decorated cottage in Woodbridge, Suffolk, offering a comfortable stay with a well-equipped kitchen and thoughtful touches like a welcome pack. Guests appreciate the property's charm, including a log burner and old beams. Some concerns were raised about parking and the need for a guest information folder.

Guests generally found The Bridewell clean, with one report of a dishwasher not being properly cleaned. This seems to be an isolated incident rather than a common issue.

While the reviews praise the property's location, there is insufficient detail to accurately score the location based on proximity to local amenities or attractions.

The property is described as comfortable and well-furnished, with a log burner and generous welcome pack contributing to a cosy atmosphere. However, some guests suggested improvements regarding heating instructions.

The Bridewell is equipped with good facilities, including a well-stocked kitchen. However, guests noted the absence of a guest information folder and some had issues with parking and recycling arrangements.

The property's welcome pack and Christmas tree were well-received, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be provided on every occasion.

    Other than the dirty dishes, we had a lovely stay.

    The house was just right with its log burner, old beams etc and great facilities. The kitchen is very well equipped, good cooker with 2 ovens open plan with the living room made a good space for cooking and entertaining. We arrived to a Christmas tree and very generous welcome pack . There was plenty of wood for the log burner. We knew there was no parking with the house . There is free on street parking with no time limit approx 10 mins walk away ( near Woodbridge school) more information about available parking in the details would be helpful. There was no guest information folder which is unusual. It would be helpful to have one with instructions for the heating, where the logs are kept , which bins to use and arrangements for recycling etc .

    The welcome pack was really thoughtful, it meant we didn’t need to run to the shops until at least the afternoon following our arrival making for a restful first morning. The location is fantastic. Sykes WhatsApp number was quick to respond and troubleshoot a couple of issues. We would love to say here again
