Dog-friendly & great location

Second time staying here. Can walk to shops & restaurants, dog-friendly. Charming building over 200 years old. Cons: Our room was on 3rd floor, so up & down 2 flights of stairs every time we walked dog. Shower backed up 1st time we used it, but they fixed it and comped us at the bar for our shower trouble.

We enjoyed our stay and the large room for our family. You just need to keep in mind this is a 200-year-old building and is very creaky, with no elevators. The kids loved the maze of stairways and exploring. The claw-foot tub wasn't the most convenient for my tall husband, but fine for everyone else. The staff here is AMAZING, Angela is a wealth of knowledge on the area and made some great recommendations off the regular 'tourist' path!

Wonderful New England Inn!

Such a unique and beautiful historic, quintisential New England building! Loved hearing about the history of the Inn as well as the 3 ghosts that live there! The only suggustion I would make is to upgrade the mattresses, bedding and pillows.

We enjoyed our stay so much we extended it by another night! The rooms were comfortable and charming. The tavern was a great spot for dinner & a drink, and the staff for the inn were all so friendly and helpful and even gave local recommendations. We felt so welcome! We also enjoyed rocking in the rocking chairs in the porch. There is a French bakery behind the inn and we enjoyed it for breakfast each morning. And we also enjoyed walking through the historic district, which is convenient to the inn. We would stay there again in a heartbeat!
