Approaching Margaret River from Perth and Busselton, Bridgefield is located on the first street corner over the bridge (Higgins Street). Turn (left) into Higgins Street to find parking at the rear of Bridgefield. Once parked, walk over to the combined reception at Adamsons Riverside directly opposite.
Picture-postcard Bridgefield Guest House is the iconic landmark at the entrance to Margaret River town, her heritage being the oldest guest house on the Margaret.
Situated in the main street of Margaret River town, within a short stroll of galleries, shops and restaurants, as well as river walk trails.
At Bridgefield Guest House, the beauty of the old includes the lovely warmth and romance of a winter log fire, matched by the modern comforts of reverse-cycle air-conditioning and individual ensuites with modern amenities including wireless internet.
Bridgefield has seven guest rooms to offer, in the ambience of a gentler age.
Bridgefield's Queen Rooms with ensuite have their own private covered garden courtyard, with individual tea- and coffee-making facilities. The cosy Cabin is free standing with a lovely patio area. For a little bit of extra indulgence, the Champagne Room offers a Spa and lovely Balcony. Downstairs from the Champagne Room, the Merlot Room adjoins a beautiful lounge area with Chesterfield lounges, a kitchenette and a pot belly stove for those cold winter nights.
Two independent restaurants - La Scarpetta Trattoria and Pizzica offer, of an evening, authentic Italian cuisine and are situated within the guest house. In the original guest house, the guest lounge offers opportunity to meet fellow travellers, perhaps over a classy Margaret River red in the cosy warmth of a Winter log fire, and with the parliamentary privilege of doing so from an original circa 1904 backbench from the upper house of the Western Australian parliament. Alternatively, in the lounge, DVDs are available to borrow without charge.
Original Margaret River’s unique character and charm, Bridgefield Guest House, looks forward to making your sojourn in this extraordinary Region even more memorable. You will be warmly welcomed at Margaret Riverside Accommodation’s reception, which is located just across the street, at Adamsons Riverside Accommodation.

With six parking spaces outside and six rooms, it is assumed that they are for the hotel guests. When signing in, I was asked to provide my licence plate number and car model to assure that guests were the only people using these spots. After checking in, I left the hotel in my car for a few hours and came back to a full parking lot. There is more parking provided around back (for the restaurant guests), but it was late at this point and there weren't any lights down this road. As a solo female traveller who paid to have parking directly outside my hotel room, I am disappointed with the lack of oversight in making sure these spots are exclusively for hotel guests' use. I proceeded to park my car illegally on the sidewalk and wait until a car had vacated the lot, wasting over 2 hours of my time. Not a good experience or value for my money.

This is such a quirky place. It is well situated in the town and the whole place oozes charm and history. Even though it was full when we stayed it was very quiet. There are some nice riverside walks nearby.

Beautiful colonial era accommodation in a beautiful setting. Five minutes walk to the old heritage site and forest walking trails. Five minute walk to the Hairy Marron Cafe and bike hire place. Very close to town centre, and everything is walking distance.
Room was gorgeous, some review it as outdated, but I loved it. Clean, spacious, firm bed, closets and the bathroom was perfect.
Only downside to the place is the noise from the restaurant next door, which usually ceases by 10pm. Bring earplugs if seeking an early night.
Fireplace in communal lounge area would make for a lovely evening in the winter
