    This was our second visit to this beautiful and charming inn. This time we stayed in the Camden Room with a beautiful working fireplace. The room was so comfortable and cosy! Breakfast was delightful. Inn keepers are caring, fun and welcome you like old friends. The inn is super clean, well appointed and beautiful. It is a delightful place to stay!


    Very NE, very lovely

    We especially enjoyed our spacious and beautiful room with a fireplace. The common rooms were inviting and perfect for a cup of tea after a walk around the village. The hospitality was superb. Clearly the owners pride themselves on their inn and hope that people will come back. WE felt we were really away although we were only an hour and a half from home. We'd definitely return at this time of year (its quiet and beautiful).

    If I were real picky, I would say that the Captain Jefferds Inn needed gold sheets and a bathroom which came with an attendant. Well, they don't have those things, but almost. My wife and I have stayed at a lot of B&Bs in the northeast. None rival Captain Jefferds. It all starts at the top. Eric and Sarah have an attention to detail and unsurpassed touch for friendly and accommodating service. The breakfast items, like the warm sweet grapefruit, popovers, or artichoke quiche were done to perfection. The fireplace in the living room was very well attended to. Suggestions were made for restaurants, beaches to walk on, places to shop. All I can say is Try It.

    We celebrated my birthday for 4 glorious days at the Captain Jefferds in November 2011. This was our third visit to the inn and as usual we were more than pleased with our decision to return. The appointments at the inn are not only beautiful and gleaming but are calming and comfortable-a perfect escape from the daily grind that was very much needed. Thanks to Sarah and Erik and staff for a wonderful visit and we look forward to visiting again in the spring!
