This inn makes you feel like you are being welcomed into the home of an old friend. Everyone is very gracious and helpful. This is a beautiful area of the country and I plan to return to hike and explore the area more.

The only drawback was the ac/heat window unit that was really noisy in our room. Otherwise, a pleasant stay. The Inn offers the atmosphere of the private dwelling that it was once. We liked it and the absence of a TV in the room did not bother us. Very quiet little town.

4/10 Fair

I decided to stay here based on seeing the good reviews but my experience was different. The staff were nice but not at all personable. My room had a paper thin wall it shared with the room next to it. The floor creaked so badly as the other room’s occupants were walking around that it sounded like they were in my room. It kept waking me up. The bed was hard and the only cover I had was the quilt/bed cover which was thin and uncomfortable. The in is very old and in need of a big renovation. The breakfast was included in the price, which I liked but it wasn’t at all as great as the reviews told. The area was nice and quiet and close to an Italian restaurant, which was ok.

Centrally located in Lyme, NH. Next to a Country General Store to buy food and snacks. Great breakfast each day at the Inn. Nice family run Bed and Breakfast. Friendly atmosphere and clean rooms. Would stay again if in the area.

Just stayed for one night for a work trip but it was so cozy. Breakfast service was a little slow but so delicious and everyone was so so nice and friendly. The room was comfortable and the grounds are beautiful! Loved that I could just walk next door to have a wonderful meal at Stella’s, too! Special shout out to Duncan for checking us in and being so sweet!

What a lovely little inn. The room was perfect. The staff was friendly. It was New England charm at its finest. The inn keeper had celiac like my daughter so for the first time we could eat breakfast! I can’t say enough good things about this inn. Oh and the inn dogs were the icing on the cake.
