Breakfast makes the difference.

Between a 3 and a 5! This is a mixed bag. Accommodation for after-hours arrival was terrific. Breakfast was a real treat! Breakfast: 5 ⭐️. Room was very basic. Small and sparsely furnished. No TV. No phone. WiFi not working. Comfortable bed. Bath also clean but very basic. Wash basin but no counter. Shower with curtain that lets water onto the floor. Room 3 ⭐️. But for one or two nights when not occupying the room much more than to sleep and wash-up, it is certainly serviceable. Would return for breakfast alone! Convenient to Lime Rock Park racetrack!

The Inn is on a lovely piece of property with trees, grass, flowers. The bathroom was beautiful, the bed was comfortable and there was a common area "living room" that had a fridge for guests to place things and a microwave. The pool is fabulous (though it could use some more chaise lounges, there were only 2). The breakfast was truly delicious, made to order every morning. Home made chocolate chip cookies are out for the taking and there are dvds to borrow if you want to watch t.v. There is no cable or roku, so if that is important to you, you may want to bring a laptop as there is internet and you can stream your own. Campbell Falls is very very close and stunning. There is also a good winery down the street which had some lovely wines. Overall, this was a perfect getaway.

We stayed one night on our way to Maine form Maryland. Our 1st floor room in the carriage house was cozy. Our favorite part of our stay was having breakfast in the morning room. The host served and prepared a wonderful breakfast -the fruit salad was the best ever. An improvement would be to have grab bars installed in the tub.

Classic but dated and worn

The place was nice enough, but definitely showed it's age as an old house converted to an Inn. The room was big, and the bathroom huge, but the mattress was old and tired. There was no central AC or even a mini-split, it was a very noisy old window AC unit that barely cooled the room, but could not touch the bathroom. We had to shut the bathroom door to get any cooling in the room. I don't hate it, but would only stay in spring or fall when the temps are low.
