3.4 out of 5A Wonderful Anniversary Weekend.
May 15, 2013
My husband and I spent our 35th anniversary weekend at this beautiful Inn. The hostess was very knowledgeable about the area and we would have a little history lesson each morning during breakfast. Breakfast by the way was delicious and we had a large variety of items to choose from. We loved walking around Lennox and driving to the surrounding towns and walking and shopping in each one. We also visited a winery and the people there were so friendly. We will definitely go back but probably after May 31st because more attractions will be open. 5/4/13

September 28, 2012
Long time owners live there and share their hearts, home and history. Breakfast was expansive and varied with the OWNERS in sitting chairs, the guests around the large table and witty dialogue all around the room. A true warm, leisurely experience. Made us not want to leave the table,despite the gorgeous day outside and innumerable things to do.

A charming, comfortable room, and warm, interesting hosts welcomed us to the inn. It's in a quiet but convenient location, two blocks from Lenox's downtown. Breakfasts were outstanding with home-baked goodies like scones and more.

Hello Lisa Mears, Just want to thank you for your hospitality last weekend when we stayed in your coach house during the British Car Show in Lenox. It was just perfect. After breakfast on Saturday morning i wanted to hang around a bit and ask more about the Inn's history but my husband was 'anxious,' to say the least, about getting to the Shakespeare grounds. I cost him precious time to get setup before the judges came around and he didn't get the award he was hoping for. Oh, well, I could have been happy staying at the inn all day and taking pictures and listening to you and your dad. Thank you again for your gracious hospitality.

Second time i have stayed here. The house is absolutely beautiful...a magical setting!
4.8 out of 5Absolutely wonderful inn!!!
August 13, 2012
The innkeepers think of everything for the comfort and relaxation of their guests. They are so gracious and welcoming. The inn itself is beautiful with a large library, two pianos with sheet music, and comfortable beds. Wonderful breakfast as well! Just a minute's drive to Tanglewood, and a short walk into town. I'll go again and again.
4.2 out of 5An amazing house
July 31, 2012
A real find -- the house is filled with an amazing collection of antique furniture, ornaments which makes a unique atmosphere. Great to sit in the lounges, garden. Owner has daughters were very friendly -- full of ghost stories, etc.
3.0 out of 5Met my expectations but ...
July 26, 2012
I am not an experienced Bed and Breakfast traveler, but wanted to give it a try. This Inn is in Lenox, which is a town brimming with B+B options at all prices. The family who owns and runs this inn are delightful and put forth a wonderful breakfast, but the single person who has to manage it all is at times a bit overwhelmed with taking care of cooking, coffee, clearing, and displaying all the breakfast items. My bed had an old mattress, sagging a bit. The room was located out of the way but a very loud screen door seemed to be used frequently. There is an overall rustic feel - large cobweb in the corner of the bedroom, antique furniture that is more of a museum/shop feel than organized decorating, removed hardware from door jams with holes painted over without patching, etc. This is not the upscale B+B that one might expect. But it is clean, adequate, walking distance to town, and very affordable.
