Classic New England
The Inn is a beautiful historic mansion turned into a most comfortable B & B. We stayed in a large room in the original portion of the house.
The staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed a very delicious breakfast each day and I appreciated that I could invite a guest to join us.

Really lovely place and organized with check in process! Common areas very welcoming and the breakfast service was friendly and super delicious. Only suggestion was to have a 2nd chair in guest room for 2 people, and a box of tissues handy. Lots of other conveniences were nice though. Coffee was super delicious local roasted! Thank you for nice stay.
