Bike riding central
Right on the Rail Trail this cottage is perfect for riders. A pleasant stroll into Bright along the trail gives plenty of bird watching opportunities too. Picturesque Bright is easy on the eye and the mind. Very relaxing stay.

Cottage too hot
Cottage was in a great location but unfortunately the rooms were too hot which meant it was hard to relax in the house as all of us needed to be in the lounge room where the aircon was.

Pleasant cottage
We enjoyed our stay in Bright. The cottage was comfortable, cosy and clean. The bathroom could do with updating and also the fencing, as it is not small dog friendly. Great location, quiet and convenient to the town.

Loved it
Great position. Close to town and rail trail. The house was neat and set up well. Loved the fire! Small 'escaping' dogs were able to get through fences (but we were told of this before booking). Any barking was not appreciated by the 'happy' neighbor.

Nice Neat House
Spending a lot of time in Bright over the years, my husband and I have stayed in various accomodations types. This cottage was pretty close to perfect. Great location, comfy beds and sofas. Couple of small things to make it even better: a dishwasher, some more kitchen utensils and BBQ tools. We will be back!
