A splendid 11,500 sq ft Tudor Mansion overlooking Connecticut's Farmington hills, Chimney Crest was built in 1930 in what is now Federal Hill Historic District of Bristol. The Manor's ornate plasterwork, beamed ceilings, framed artwork and stately fireplaces express a grandeur unparalleled in the area. We've seen to your comfort in elegant lodgings with air conditioning, king and queen-size beds and private bath, color cablevision and off-street parking. We add those little touches our guests tell us mean so much to them...turned-down beds,fresh fruit, tea, sweets. we'll even be glad to serve you our piping hot, plentiful breakfast on the Grand Patio off the Salon. Visit with us for pleasure or on business. we'll treat you to warm, attentive bed-and-breakfast hospitality set in the splendor and style of a bygone era.

Perched on the top of a hill with extravagant views, Chimney Crest Mano serves as a relaxing, comfortable atmosphere in a beautiful brick manor house. My room was the "Queen" room, and I certainly felt like one. Comfortable bed, large, welcoming room, clean bath and gracious host and hostess. Highly recommend this outs9de-Hartford home for visits. christina

Hospitality was great. only concern was the house was not heated, except for our room, which had an electric heater. As a result, dining required my wife to wear her coat just to tolerate the inside weather.

November 05, 2012
I love Chimney Crest, it is so warm. I am so happy I found it on the internet and I try to return every year. Cynthia and Dan are wonderful hosts and Vanessa is so sweet. The breakfasts are always delicious, worth the weight gain! I learned that you can get an air baloon package and it is fabulous, I will have to put that on my list for next time.
5 out of 5What a find!
October 23, 2012
What a wonderful place to finish our touring holiday of New England with some friends. We were greeted so warmly & nothing was too much trouble for our charming hosts. The house is absolutely beautiful & the rooms so comfortable & clean & with the little extras of fruit, home made biscuits & the bed turned down for the night we couldn't have been happier. It was one of the comfiest beds we had slept in on our travels! The breakfasts were so beautifully prepared & served & my special 'needs' were catered for so well. Thank you for ending our holiday on such a high note.
5 out of 5Brilliant

Cynthia and Dan were friendly and informative. the views from our windowwere spectacular. A wonderful end to our tour around New England.
