The Haddie Pierce House

Wickford, R. I. is one of the most appealing of all the coastal New England towns with excellent shopping, enjoyable restaurants, and a particularly impressive number of fine 18th and early 19th century houses. The Haddie Pierce House is a fine place to stay, within walking distance of everything. Darya is a most gracious hostess. It's a welcome respite from urban and suburban pressures.

Our stay at the Haddie Pierce House was truely a wonderful experience. Wickford village is an easy wlak from the B&B and that makes for an enjoyable dinner. Breakfast was excellent - fruit, breads, coffee/tea and the main course - waffles one day and eggs the next.

We had a delightful stay at the Haddie Pierce B&B. A wonderful beach with great views and the village of Wickford each just a short walk. The Lilac Room w/private bath was just right and the porch at the front of the house had both sun and shade, with comfortable wicker chairs for reading and talking. Cheryl was a great hostess, breakfasts were tasty, and we would return with pleasure.

Originally, the room we had chosen online had a private bath but it was across the hall and not within the room. We appreciated the fact that the hostess was willing to switch us to one which had a private bath within the bedroom. Breakfast was scrumptious. Enjoyed the stroll on the nearby beach and downtown Wickford shops.

We stayed at The Haddie Pierce House during the arrival of Hurricane Irene. Although the area and Inn had no electricity the Innkeeper made us feel comfortable and the breakfast was delicious... she had gas instead of electricity.

Wonderful, heartwarming home and a full, welcoming breakfast to start each lovely day. We will definately re-visit the Haddie Pierce House.

My husband and I thought the Haddie Pierce House was very quaint. Darya was very sociable and was able to offer us suggestions on what was good to see in the area and where to have dinner. The breakfasts were delicious. We would go back again on our next trip to Rhode Island

There was a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. We loved the location,close to the beach and shopping. The breakfasts were thw best we have ever had at a bed and breakfast.

Everything was wonderful. We met new friends and and hope to return another summer. Thank you

I met my Vermont family there for two nights of enjoying Rhode Island. Darya gave us good advice about where to eat and how to get there. She also was more than helpful in providing a slightly different breakfast for my daughter who has severe reactions to eggs etc.

Our stay at HPH was short but sweet. The location was great and we were pleasantly greeted as soon as we arrived. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Our hostess was extremely accommodating because we have to leave early the next day and prepared breakfast earlier that morning so we could leave with full stomachs. I would definitely recommend this B&B to others visiting Wickford, RI.

First stay at a b&b, would definitely go here again. Not true that only one room has it's own bath. Read the website, or book from other sites for proof. Food awesome site seeing great. Good shopping downtown. Her restaurant suggestions were right on too. Great hospitality not sterile like a hotel. AAA

We booked two rooms (one queen size for we parents; one with two twins for our teens). The accommodations were very clean; and very attractive. The breakfast was delicious. Our host was very kind and informative. The Haddie Pierce House is nicely located; walking distance to a beach and to Wickford Village. It is also a short driving distance to the Martha's Vineyard ferry. We will stay again in the future.

Quick walk into Wickford. Close to nice beach. Breakfast very tasty. Nice front porch.

A charming home with a charming hostess. The Innkeeper was not only friendly but was very knowledgeable in everything there was to do in the area. She had wonderful suggestions. The atmosphere of the Inn was friendly, very picturesque, and super clean. The breakfasts were wonderful. Plenty to eat and varied each day.

Very warm & cozy experience. Darya went out of her way to accommodate me & our group -- 7 other family and friends were staying at Haddie's -- we all felt special. Breakfasts were great.

expectations were for everyone to sit together in the am for breakfast, we are more on the go types and prefer to grab java and a muffin... but can't say enough about the location, 5min walk to town beach or into town for shops and dining...

A wonderful stay at this B & B. Darya was a very nice host and the breakfast were hardy and flavorful. Ron & Marian

Good points: Wickford is a small but very nice town right on the water. There are small rivers passing through town and a lovely bay beach park within a 6 minute walk of the House. Wickford is a good location from which to visit Newport (very easy 25 min. drive) without the high Newport accomodation prices and is also close to the southern Rhode Island coast. The Haddie Pierce House itself is lovely and very comfortable with a nice yard, front porch and on-site parking. The rooms are very nice and the bathrooms are clean. Areas for improvement: Only one room has an actual attached bathroom. The others are down the hall, but with a separate bathroom for each room. The breakfasts were a disappointment. With all of the recipes on the Haddie Pierce website, we were anticipating more. The noise of the road in front of the house is distracting from the overall rural setting but it settles down in the evening.

A beautiful house & garden with an easy walk to a beach and the shops/restaurant of Wickford. Beautiful rooms, great breakfasts and a charming hostess!

Clean; quaint; nice hosts. Delicious Victorian flavor. Great Breakfast!

Delicious breakfasts, wonderful host; very nice accommodations with two common rooms and a wonderful front porch; beach and town within walking distance.

Good location, walk to the village & beach. Hostess very pleasant. Would stay there again. We were a party of six. Porch & sitting room available for evening gathering.

Wickford is a lovely little town. Haddie Pierce House has a great location near the town beach and the town center. Innkeeper Darya is a gracious host. Her breakfasts are tailored to your dietery needs. The rooms and house were very comfortable.

My first stay at the Haddie Pierce House Bed & Breakfast was an absolute delight! In Rhode Island for a business meeting, I booked accommodations for the duration of the meeting at the Haddie Pierce House—and was so happy there that I extended my stay through the weekend. As a woman often travelling alone, it’s important that I feel safe and secure when spending the night anywhere. Darya and John provide an environment that not only meets that criterion, but that is also friendly and welcoming. They are gracious, helpful hosts, who maintain an impeccably neat and clean home. The breakfasts are varied and delicious, the antique Victorian décor charming, and the rooms comfortable and well appointed. A short walk to Wickford’s town beach and quaint village shops, the HPH is only a short drive to Newport. Over the years, I continue to make return visits, and enthusiastically recommend this B&B to family and friends.

Charming B&B in a great location. Terrific breakfast! We were especially appreciative of Darya's concern for any food allergies.

We spent a very nice night at the Haddie Pierce House. Darya had some delicious pound cake for us shortly after we arrived; there is also a large selection of teas. The bed was comfortable, breakfast was delicious, the Haddie Pierce House and grounds are lovely, and we would stay here again. Thanks, Darya.

The good innkeepers were wonderful as I spent a week in this delightful B&B while I was working. The home is warm and perfectly kept. I was able to walk to Wickford Village and the waterfront easily. Darya was always available with a smile and help when I needed it. And the resident Lab and kitty made it even more fun. I'll be back.

We really enjoyed the stay and the location was great not too far outside of Newport. The breakfasts were great and a very nice porch outside to sit and relax.

I have stayed at Haddie Pierce House several times in the past 10 years and will continue in the future. Darya is an excellent hostess and cook and the cleanliness and atmosphere are superb.

The Haddie Pierce House was a very nice place to stay during our recent visit to Newport, RI. The breakfasts were very well done and the house is well kept. We also enjoyed strolling to downtown historic Wickford.

We had a wonderful stay at the Haddie Pierce House. It is a delightful Victorian house with lovely and very comfortable rooms. The breakfasts were delicious and beautiful. The host, Darya, was attentive, but also gave us our space. I have already recommended the Haddie Pierce House to our friends and family in the area. It is within walking distance of Wickford Harbor, shops, restaurants and historic district.

My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful overnight stay and breakfast the following morning. The house is beautifully appointed and well maintained. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Darya is an excellent innkeeper and chef!

My wife and I enjoyed a six-night stay at the Haddie Pierce House. Charmingly decorated rooms, a relaxing front porch, interesting guests, a varied and delicious breakfast menu, and a wonderful host made this lodging experience memorable in the best way. It is within walking distance of almost everything of interest in Wickford and within short driving distance of the rest of Rhode Island -- we recommend HPH.

As first time bed & breakfast guests, we were extremely pleased with our entire 4 night stay. The atmosphere was outstanding with Victorian furniture and antiques galore. Accommodations were superb. Rooms were immaculate and a full homemade, delicious breakfast was served daily.

For my first B&B I could not have picked a more appropriate location. Everythign exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate recommending the Haddie Pierce to my friends.

the furnishings are Victorian/New England and each themed room is exquisite. The morning breakfast menu is ever changing and uniquely charming -- homemade and hearty for the day's adventures!

We visited H.P.H. while my husband presented a talk about his photography book "Good Fences" in R.I. The hosts very soon became friends -- helpful friends, too! Lodging was lovely -- very Victorian. Only suggestion: larger wattage light bulbs. Quite difficult to read. Vey dim.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - the food, our hostess -- all wonderful!

Thoroughly enjoyed every moment at the inn. From the warm and welcoming innkeeper, Darya, to the lovely furnishings and delicious breakfasts, we could not have asked for more. Darya accommodated my no white flour/no sugar needs beautifully, as well. A two night birthday gift for my husband. Loved it!

Beautiful Victorian B&B in a quaint New England village.

nice stay

This wonderful B&B, warm, friendly, and so comfortable, is located centrally for beach, sailing, wonderful vistas, and interesting shopping. Owners are friendly and helpful.

Accommodations, service, food were just perfect. Close proximity to a quaint New England village (Wickford) made it even more enjoyable. we'll definitely return. innkeeper was a joy!

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Haddie Pierce House. The peach upside down french toast is to die for!

This innkeeper is friendly and helpful. We stayed in the Lilac Room and it was large and pleasantly furnished. Breakfasts were delicious and varied. Highly recommend.

The Haddie Pierce house has fantastic rooms in a beautiful house. The innkeeper was extremely friendly and accommodating--plus a great cook. The location is a very short walk to the quaintest village in all of Rhode Island.

When I come to stay at the Haddie Pierce House I usually bring a special friend. Relaxing on the porch, I feel like one of the family.

I had a wonderful time at Haddie Pierce. Darya was a warm and welcoming person, you felt like you were visiting a friend!

We stayed at Haddie Pierce for a combo business and pleasure trip. The InnKeepers were wonderful, responsive and helpful. The room was quaint, warm and well-docorated. Beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was great. I would strongly recommend the Inn to anyone staying around the Wickford area.

Accommodating, gracious, comfortable. The location is a relaxing city (marina) within walking distance to shops, restaurants etc.

Our stay at the B&B was relaxing and wonderful. We felt welcome and like family the moment we arrived

We had a lovely, relaxing getaway. The Haddie Pierce House is ideally located for walking and traveling in the area. Enjoyable stay.

Charming hosts in beautiful house in quaint village

Lovely environment to base area visit to historic sites and Newport gardens. Great setting for 'the girls' to chat and unwind.

Cozy Victorian atmosphere. Clean, comfortable room. Innkeeper was pleasant and helpful. Very pleasant stay.

Lovely Victorian House - On Main Rd - Ask for room w/ bath in back of house - Warm welcome - Excellent breakfast.

We couldn't have been happier with our accommodations. Quiet, clean, friendly, relaxed, convenient to Newport and Providence with a pleasant village and beach (2 blocks) nearby. We found Haddie Pierce House to be a great value and enjoyed Darya's style and food very much. We had a delayed arrival in the middle of the night (flights from OR). Darya just took it in stride.

Delicious breakfast! Lovely rooms. Wanted another night, but they were booked up! Only wish was for a tub instead of a shower stall (or a telephone shower would have been better than the "rain" shower head).

My far-away friend (Oregon) & I were meeting at a B&B for a girl-getaway but when her flight was delayed (3 times) then canceled, my husband filled in and we had a lovely time and the Victorian house was wonderful.

Clean, comfortable room. Delicious breakfast. Sweet, knowledgeable host. Thank you Darya for your helpfulness and hospitality!

A homey, relaxing oasis near the water - within walking distance to quaint village featuring shops and restaurants. Doria creates delicious breakfasts served in antique-filled dining room. My group enjoyed Happy Hour out on the front porch. Will return to this B&B.

We stayed here in 2007. We were so pleased with everything, so we went back. Going next year too!

Outstanding in every respect!

lovely rhode island with all it's charm and history.i felt that this stay gave me a part of it. i went to visit family which was the life light,but now i feel that the owners of the haddie pierce are part of my family. the home was full at times, yet you wouldn't realize it. the breakfast was a wonderful experience , i love it, i hope to come back again.

and outstanding place with gracious hosts and extremely clean rooms. gardens and landscaping are also tops. a very beautiful place

Had a wonderful time! The house is beautifully decorated and welcoming from the moment you step through the door. Darya is a gracious hostess and is quite knowledgeable of the area, always ready with suggestions, recommendations, and directions. We will stay again!

location and wonderful hosts

Innkeepers are awesome people - area and home are beautiful!

Four of us good friends getaway . A lovely spot in the tiniest state in the US of A, RI. Delightful innkeepers! Fine Food and truly a trip back to yesteryear.

Spent 2 nights and really enjoyed this B&B. The breakfasts were wonderful, served on lovely china, in a beautiful room. Location is perfect! Walk to beach, downtown, or sit on the porch! Nice!

This was my third time staying here and it was a wonderful, relaxing time again. Darya makes it always such a pleasant experience.

Everything was welcoming, clean, hospitable - all that you would want in a B&B. Accessible to a lovely beach and great shopping.

This B&B is in a perfect spot - near the beach, near restaurant, shopping, kayaking. We had the added pleasure of meeting very interesting people there during our stay. The B&B is clean, the food is delicious and the host is great.

Wasn't partial to the family style breakfast but it was fabulous. Location was excellent for walking and navigating around the local sites. Innkeepers were very gracious and very accommodating with information. Like that they promoted their local businesses - restaurants, shops, etc. with referrals and recommendations.

This b&b is my Tuesday get-a-way. The breakfast is always sumptious and healthy. Wickford town center is a great morning walk and then on to the beach! Later you can watch the ferries and fishing boats come in. My two day get-a-way!
