The Mill Old Bridge was a water mill, re-built, opened in May 2012. idyllic place by the architecture of the building itself and the wild nature landscape that make this small hotel in a place with very peculiares.O features Mill Old Bridge, has this name because it is next to a Roman bridge very old, where the route was made of animals carrying flour to villages. It was abandoned about half a century and was reborn in 2012.
The Mill of Old Bridge, was an estate that my parents got and they always aspired to the mill was restored. I (Lucilia) the youngest daughter of four brothers fell in love with that place, the energy that the surrounding bore me; the river, fish, otters, crayfish, the trees, the birds, .... everything over there is life with peace .... and decided that all these feelings deserved to be experienced by more people, then came the strength to it is work. It has a micro-climate, a wild landscape and calm, which are the delight of who stay there. It is an idyllic location for its peace and the surrounding nature.
Mill is located on the bank of the river Sabor, river which rises in Spain in the province of Zamora and flows into the River Douro near the Pucinho. The house is within the city of Bragança, capital district in the city we can find numerous different restaurants with typical food "to put" (excellent meat).
