The success of Gibbon Bridge would not be possible without the hard work, dedication and loyalty of "The Team". Many employees have worked at Gibbon Bridge since the very first day - Philip Holland and Susan McGill. The longest serving title though must be awarded to Robert Lowe; the Head Gardener who worked for Janet as a general handyman even before the Hotel began.
We are delighted to say that a grand total of a further five employees have been employed for over ten years. A perfect balance of individual personalities, different skills, experience and professionalism brings about successful teamwork, which ensures that each guest has a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable stay. Within the grounds of the hotel a statue bears the Latin inscription meaning "Forever the Richer".
It was originally located on the Bishopgate offices of the Bank of Scotland, and also seen on their bank notes. Now at Gibbon Bridge Janet and The Team always hope the inscription reflects the feelings of the guests.

All have been designed and furnished by Janet herself and therefore offer an individuality that is not often available elsewhere.
The rooms range from standard doubles & twins to suites and VIP suites with the ultimate in luxury being the Staple Oak Suite.
The bedrooms mirror Janet's eclectic taste and are a mix of contemporary and traditional with large double/twins, kingsize or superkingsize beds.
