My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Castle in the Country. The room was very nice and the staff was full of great information and very friendly. They served us breakfast on two mornings and the food and presentation was wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and our entire stay was very relaxing. We will definitely be visiting them again when another rest and relaxation weekend is needed.
Innkeeper Response
Dear Guest, Thanks so much for your generous review. We love it when couples come to us when they're looking for rest and relaxation...there seems to be such a great need for that and yet very few places are designed just to give it. So glad you enjoyed the breakfasts, the grounds and the room you selected. We love doing what we do and we'll look forward to having you back sometime soon.

Just last weekend I surprised my fiancé (girlfriend at the time), and took her to Castle in the Country. I had contacted the staff at least 7 times within a month prior to our trip. They helped my extensively each time to make sure the trip was unforgettable. The care that was taken towards the details in every aspect of their Bed and Breakfast was truly heart felt. As many can expect my fiancé has already discussed our future returns for Anniversaries. Thank you so much to the staff and family of Castle in the Country. Sincerely, One Happy Man
Innkeeper Response
Dear "One Happy Man", We absolutely Loved helping you with all the planning to surprise and delight your beautiful fiance with a proposal! Of course we were just as determined to make an unforgettable experience for both of you and we felt very lucky to be a part of your love story. Each of our staff members were thrilled to be adding their own special gifts of service to the Happy Couple. We're all looking forward to many happy returns (return visits for Birthdays, anniversaries and maybe even a "take-a-break-from-wedding-planning-weekend" sometime soon! :-)

We had a wonderful day this past week at the Castle in the Country! First of all, I can't believe how much time they put into details at the Castle in the Country. Anything we needed, it was provided. The room was incredibly clean and smelled absolutely wonderful. Just a subtle, clean scent. We stayed in the King Arthur suite. Amazing view, great mattress, awesome tub. Two person shower was great. The food was incredible. We enjoyed everything, from the menu and the variety to the soft music and individual tables so you don't have to sit with people. Husband keeps talking about the food and enjoyed all of it. And... I hate sausage and ate mine the first morning. It was so good! They have a full sized fridge/freezer available in the new building, Castle Keep. My hubby is also a coffee snot. He would've loved a pour-over station with coffee that could be ground there. But I told him I would mention it in an email to Ruth in case others "snots" requested this, and she said she would've been happy to provide him with a French Press. If you stay here, ask for anything! They have it! The only thing that would've made the room better was that 2 of the 3 flameless candles were not working in the King Arthur room (batteries, probably). If it bothered us, we would've asked to have someone look at it. We ran out of tissues (we each had colds), asked Karissa to replace it, and it was done immediately and delivered personally to our room. Their service is impeccable! Listen to their recommendations on food and entertainment. If you don't go to Salt of the Earth for dinner at least one night, shame on you. It's out of this world. It was featured on the Food Network! Hubby got the scallops and lobster bisque soup and almost cried it was so good. The cake with chocolate and sea salt is to die for. Fennway Station is great too. Unique seating in a railway car. Stay for at least 3 nights. We only did 2 and regret it.
Innkeeper Response
Dear Guest, Wow! Thanks so much for providing such a detailed review of our Inn. Your feedback about every aspect of your stay;from the food to the comfort of the bed to the service we provided; will help others who are looking for their own romantic getaway. As you noticed, I love to put thought and attention into every space within our two buildings and our surrounding property and when those details are noticed and appreciated, I just get a boost of energy to do more! Thanks for such a great boost... and we're readying the French Press for your next visit :-)
