“We enjoyed the stay in Brideswell.”
However, we were disappointed with the parking situation. There was no parking space at the property and on-street parking was limited to 30mins. This was not mentioned in the advertising feature, There was nothing helpful as to the best place to park in the property. I found a carpark some distance away and paid for a full day, and overnight was free from 6pm till 8am. Unfortunately I was a little late getting to the car park after 8am and had incurred a £25 fine.
The welcome note gave interesting background information on the property and said that if there were any problems, to contact the housekeeper. Unfortunately no contact details were provided!
We are pleased to know that you loved your holiday at The Bridewell. Our local team are always happy to help locate free local parking, and as a large medieval town, Woodbridge provide plenty of space for everyone. We will ensure that the correct details and guides are now in the property, and hope to welcome you back again soon.
Best of Suffolk.
