Guest Stories

What our guests say about their stay

"We stayed here for a long weekend and immediately wished we'd booked more nights. The rooms are beautiful, the breakfast was incredible, and the hosts made us feel like we were visiting old friends. We'll be back."

Sarah M. Portland, ME

"As someone who travels frequently for work, I can say this is one of the finest B&Bs I've experienced in New England. The attention to detail is remarkable — from the fresh flowers in the room to the homemade granola at breakfast."

James T. Boston, MA

"Our family stayed here while visiting relatives and it was the perfect home base. The kids loved the garden, we loved the quiet street, and the breakfast kept us going all day. A genuine gem in every sense."
