Great location and property
Wonderful county cottage in a fantastic location as short walk across the bridge into town and right on the banks of the river . The cottage was clean and neat and had everything you need for a country stay.

Great place, shame about the tradies next door
Great property. Workers building the house next door were on site with tools and music by 7.15am, Saturday morning. Big detraction and one which holiday makers should be warned about.

Wonderful weekend getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at Bright River Cottage. Having stayed in a lot of places I have come to believe that a well appointed kitchen is a sign of a well looked after holiday home. And this has it all. We could not fault the place for comfort, space, cleanliness and appointment. We were 6 people aged 14-83 and two dogs and we leave Bright River Cottage with sadness and hope to return.

Fabulous location, clean house
Wonderful 3 bedroom house in a fabulous location. Close to the river and centre of Bright. Full kitchen, modern appliances. Comfy beds ! Only thing missing it was an outdoor eating area to enjoy the balmy Bright evenings , although there were some chairs on the front and back porch to use.

Relaxed environment and dog friendly. Love the fireplace and the wild birds!
We've stayed that the River Cottage twice in the past 5 years and love it. We appreciate being able to have our dog with us. The property is beautiful. Wild birds come all day long to eat the bird seed. In the evening when the weather is cool, it is great to be able to fire up the wood burning stove and enjoy the warmth. A relaxed homey atmosphere, not stuffy and sterile. Overall, a great place to stay!

Great for a family holiday
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect house for our 3 generations family holiday. House is very comfortable, clean and beautifully renovated. Front yard was secure for our wayward toddler. Perfect location - river opposite, waterhole and shops a short stroll. Generous extras - plenty of toilet paper, detergent, condiments etc

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful cosy house, with modern kitchen and bathroom. Their fireplace seem to have been updated recently. It has great access to the river walk as well as only short walk to town centre. The only improvement is wiping dust layer from the bedside table. Overall a very comfortable home. We definitely will return again in the future when visiting Bright. Thank you for a lovely stay.
