Just book it. Don’t overthink it, this is the place to stay if you are looking for the quintessential New England experience. Everything was perfect: the room (Cinnamon), the grounds, the breakfast, and especially the service. The property (Inn and grounds) were gorgeous, clean, calm and quiet. Nightcap drinks at the bar were excellent. Breakfast of pancakes and bacon was phenomenal. The staff (Todd especially) could not have been better and have easily blown away every other location we stayed at during our trip (and that we can ever recall). Todd was a wealth of knowledge of the region and greeted us immediately with a smile and charm that made us feel like we were home. Can’t say enough good things about the experience, biggest regret of our 5 day trip was only spending one night at the Inn at Manchester.
