Special Offer

We have last minute availability for five nights from May 9th on special offer at £270. First come first served. We supply all bed linen and towels together with welcome pack.

Facility Improvement

The B&B will be closed for three weeks from Saturday 15th November. We are fully insulating the roof on the breakfast / sitting room and installing a wood burning stove so the winter experience should be much improved and it will be cooler in the summer. We are also putting a door out onto the new platform. We should reopen on Saturday 6th December.

The Last Train Leaving

The last train leaving Bridge of Dee Station would have been about 67 years ago when the station closed. The new platform is on the site of the original - all you need now is imagination, can you smell the steam?

New Platform

A couple of new photos - gives a view of what we have done.

New Platform

After much digging and shoveling and a lot of skilled assistance from our builder Andrew Chadwick the original passenger platform has been restored at least in part to its former glory. It sits between the conservatory and the railway tunnel and next year will be accessed from the conservatory. It will be a further outside amenity area for our guests.New photos to follow. This is the first of major improvements to our facilities. Watch this space for more development news

Wildlife

One of our Carriage guests was taking his dog a walk down the old railway line to the river. Its quite overgrown with trees and well sheltered. Early morning the light is spectacular. He spotted a young stag and got to within 10 metres before it took off. Special moment.
