It has to be one of the best places we stayed whilst traveling through New England. The breakfast, the ac-commodation and the hosts were all so perfect.... Our only regret was that we only spent one night in this immaculately clean and friendly home.

Thanks for  opening your home and hearth – you both definitely live up to the name you’ve set out – a welcome haven for weary travelers, indeed.

Our nearly 150-year-old farmhouse is of the style called “Big House, Little House, Back House, Barn,” and has seen many changes in use through the years. Built in 1860 by Ira Kimball, and located on a quiet little park named for him, its first owner was a bootmaker named Asa Knight.  It has been a funeral home and veterinarian’s office; once upon a time it was even a two-family home. Now it is both our home and a bed-and-breakfast offering two guest rooms.


The Kimball Room is named for Ira Kimball who owned the land that now comprises Kimball Park. It features a queen bed and private bath with shower.



The Taylor Room, named for Faye Taylor, former owner and noted local artist, has a queen bed and private bath with a shower-tub combination. This is our family suite with space for 3 people.



Both guest rooms feature comfortable chairs, closets, their own heating zones, reading lamps, hairdryers, shampoo, etc.  Other travel conveniences we can offer include iron and ironing board, clock radio, and your choice of fan or air conditioner in the summer. We also have a portacrib and high chair available for an infant or toddler.


We have two comfortable guest living rooms where you can relax.

 

Watch cable TV or choose a movie from our large library of DVDs and VCR tapes in one living room. Families enjoy our collection of games and puzzles.

The front living room offers comfortable chairs for reading and listening to music. We invite you to enjoy our extensive collection of classical CDs.

Enjoy the gas-fired stove on cold winter evenings.


Relax on the front porch in summer. You may see our resident hummingbird!

Check out the area restaurant and shopping guide or plan your next excursion on foot or by car with help from our activities guide. We are happy to loan out road and hiking maps so you are sure to find your way back to us in time for tea.

Our conveniently-located home is just a short stroll to the village center with its shops, restaurants, and other attractions. There is a non-smoking policy throughout the house. Due to allergies, we are unable to host your pets.
