Cozy historic perfection

We only stayed one night to attend a wedding in Groton but would have loved to linger at this delightful historic home. Centrally located and convenient. Stocked with everything you need and so many extra touches that made it special. Stocked coffee and tea bar; seating in so many places on the first floor to make conversation easy; welcome book with helpful info and easy to locate Wi-Fi password; notable historic notes and artwork. Nod to the transcendental history of the region. Welcoming and responsive host. All around perfection.
