Description:
We invite you to step back in time and enjoy the splendor of yesteryear in this magnificent c.1746 National Historic Register Bed and Breakfast Inn located in quintessential shoreline New England village of Old Saybrook, Connecticut! The guest rooms are romantically furnished in period style featuring Queen beds, most with 4-poster or canopy beds, and each with a working fireplace and/or jacuzzi whirlpool tub, cable TV, phone/modem line, stereo/cd player, AC, and private bath. Most with comfortable sitting areas as well.
This charming home boasts many fine original details including original wide-board floors throughout, hand-hewn beams, original doors with hand forged latches, wainscoting, a corner cupboard, beehive oven, and seven working fireplaces. The home has been lovingly restored over the last 7 years in hopes that our guests will enjoy the wonderful history, charm and authentic decoration that is here.
A formal candlelit breakfast is served in the elegant dining room with fireplace on fine china. Relax in our picturesque grounds with pretty gardens, inviting sitting areas, a handsome two century-old maple tree with swing, and 2-person hammock. Or in colder months, lounge by the fire in the parlor or the privacy of your room, enjoy a game of chess, checkers, or bridge, or visit with friends, and enjoy complimentary port wine, tea, and cookies. Guest refrigerator and spring water are also always available. Massage therapy can be arranged in your room.
Located in the heart of the historic district, on a pretty gas-lit main street, we are a
short walk to the water, quaint shops, restaurants, cafes, coffeehouses with entertainment, theatres, churches, spas, town green activities, ice skating pond, scenic North Cove historic district, and Saybrook Point Park at the mouth of the Connecticut River. We are next door to an old-fashioned ice-cream parlor (since 1896), coffeehouse, and art gallery; and across the street from the General William Hart House Museum and a pillared white church.
