It had a rustic feel. Staff was helpful. The hill on the driveway on a snowy day was tricky. The pub was awesome.

The Inn was quaint and has beautiful grounds and a delicious continental breakfast including a waffle station. But, the room had extremely squeaky floor boards and the walls were paper thin. I heard every word of guests next door including the snoring! We stayed in the Carriage House for one night.

The main building has rooms attached to it so it gets loud when guests slam the front doors. The ladies at the front desk were wonderful but the gentleman was rude and unwelcoming. The breakfast selection was fantastic! That said, I wouldn’t stay there again…

After driving for nearly 6 hours, We arrived very late, as the kitchen was closing. The staff was so accommodating they asked the kitchen to stay open for us. The food and service was great! The property is beautiful and so close to UNH.

Charming, with limitations

That the buildings are from the 17th and 18th centuries is nice and they’ve done well with them. It’s very small, so has a small staff. Breakfast bar was nice, would’ve preferred full breakfast in the restaurant. Daily needs were provided but no maid service. Dinner in restaurant was really good.

Very disappointed!

Just a terrible overall 2 night stay. First assigned a room on the 2nd floor with no elevators so carrying luggage could be a challenge for some elderly people. The room didn’t have enough electrical outlets. The shower was very small with a magnate holding the shower head so impossible to adjust. The trash in the room was not emptied our entire stay. The continental breakfast was a disappointment. There were no freshly baked products but there were bagels and individual slices of bread that were in sandwich bags so you can see that they were frozen and put back out. Overall not many choices to start the day! This was not an inexpensive stay so overall not worth what we paid.
