Shaker Farm Bed and Breakfast

All Innkeepers should spend time with Joe & Cathy and learn the true meaning of warmth, courtesy, professionalism, and joy.

This charming 200-year-old home is rich with history and lovely antiques and comfortable beds, and displays special New England touches that made it a great choice for our fall visit to see the foliage. Each morning the owners Cathy and Joe welcomed us downstairs with fresh fruit and home-baked pastries. As we looked out the bay window and sipped coffee, we watched the colorful birds at the front yard feeder. This B&B's location was perfect for a jaunt into Vermont or through New Hampshire with easy access to major freeways. It was a delightful and memorable home away from home.

Closer to Dartmouth campus than expected Wonderful breakfast conversation around the large dining room table -

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at this quaint B & B. Joe and Cathy were extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were fabulous!!! Would highly recommend.

Very friendly -- owners super . Breakfast -- fabulous. 2 courses. 5 stars.

Cookies warm from the oven, hot teas and coffees are the norm for a fall stay in a New England B&B. Vintage pieces and tasteful linens are expected. What makes this B&B exceptional is the attention to detail in the presentation and service at breakfast. Cathy made sure that the food and the guests were definitely center stage...a dining experience far exceeding what one would expect from a moderately priced establishment. A most beautiful and scrumptious breakfast! A great value!

This was my husband's first time at a B&B. It couldn't have been more pleasant. He's sold. Cathy and Joe are delightful hosts, Cathy's an extraordinary cook, and we will definitely go back if we're in the area.

Cathy and Joe were very gracious and accommodating. Their equisite breakfasts were eloquently presented and delicious. Our room was tastefully appointed in a hunt theme with access to a comfortable sitting room and outdoor deck. Truly special.

Robert & Gina Reger, We stayed on June 21, 2012. From the moment we walked in the door we were impressed with how friendly Cathy & Joe to the sparking clean room. We were just happy with everything. Then in the morning came the best, breakfast, which was simply amazing. The care and love that these folks put into this B&B is evident throughout. We would certainly stay here again. Thanks very much Cathy and Joe.

We enjoyed a very comfortable two nights at Shaker Farm. Cathy is a very good hostess and served delicious breakfast. Very attentive and charming company.

We came to the Shaker Farm Bed and Breakfast for a 5 day respite vacation. We had a wonderful time enjoying the fine breakfasts and the company of fellow guests in the formal dining room. Owners Cathy and Joe were friendly and helpful. We would highly recommend staying at this historic Shaker Bed and Breakfast and would stay their again.

The "hotel" option on our GPS provided the Shaker Farm B&B as a choice. We spent the night in an authentic Shaker house that still had pegs on the bedroom walls -- formerly for hanging up the furniture. Joe & Cathy treated us like friends, and Cathy made a wonderful breakfast. Serendipity -- loved it!

An older farmhouse, so not all of the angles are square and the upstairs ceiling is low, but that's part of the charm. We loved it. Cathy, our hostess, was perfect. Her food was delicious.

Our stay began with a warm welcome by innkeepers Joe and Cathy. We had a charmingly decorated, quiet, comfortable room with a king sized bed and love seat. A fluffy down comforter was perfect for the chill of mid-October nights. The dining room with exposed old beams was welcoming and the beautifully set table made us feel like guests at a special event. The full breakfasts were delicious shared with interesting guests. Our two days at Shaker Farm felt like a true vacation. We highly recommend it!

Arrived at this delightful B & B and was met immediately by Cathy. A warm welcome and tour of the home with delicious chocolate chip cookies to snack on. Our room was tastefully decorated in fox hunting motif with an adjoining sitting room overlooking the yard. Asking for recommendations for dinner, Cathy told us about a wonderful Italian restaurant in town that was excellent. The rest of our evening was very comfortable in our room and sitting room as we went on-line to check e-mails and caught a little football on TV. Very comfortable bed, made for a good night's sleep. The breakfast Cathy served was delicious and the table setting was very elegant. Beginning with fresh strawberries in a long stemmed glass, to die for zucchini bread and wonderfully presented eggs benedict. We would highly recommend staying at this charming and historic B & B.

A splendid B&B with outstanding, gracious hosts. It was like going back in history, bringing back early memories of growing up in the farmlands of New York and Maine. The physical facilities were clean, tastefully and appropriately decorated and very convenient for loading and unloading luggage. The breakfast (and fellow guests that day) was superb and beautifully presented. Hats off to the hardworking Innkeepers for making our stay so memorable. Only complaint--our stay was too short!

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in August 2010 while we were visiting our daughter in the area. The hosts were wonderful and the room was great. We loved their home and hospitality and look forward to staying there again.

Personable hosts and beautiful room - excellent location for exploring.

Beautiful home, quite, Joe and Cathy were very friendly.

I've never stayed at a B&B before, but after staying at Shaker Farm I would recommend one to everyone. The Hosts were the best ever and the breakfast was very good every day and such a great surprise. Lovely place!

Gracious hosts, pleasant surroundings, comfortable room.

A few days away to a small B&B, a few miles away, not too much driving time looking for relaxation and fall viewing. It was worth it and glad we had the opportunity to meet 2 nice owners.

Joe & Cathy were so friendly and accomodating. The breakfasts were feasts! The banana walnut French toast was my favorite. The original exposed beams in the dining room and kitchen provided a cozy, warm atmosphere and the original Shaker pegs around our bedroom made me feel like I had gone back in time.

Excellent place and food- interesting rooms and comfortable. Terrific hospitality.

Beautiful home, kept immaculate -- everything you want. Food is wonderful. Superbly hospitable hosts -- great company. A great weekend!

We had a wonderful weekend at Shaker Farm. The Gaspariks were friendly and hospitable. They made all the guests feel right at home. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The decorating of the whole house was very nicely done and fit the "period" of the house. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

Shaker Farm & its owners provided everything I needed: A beautiful place to relax, wonderful hospitality, fantastic breakfasts, helpful suggestions as to what to see & where to go in the area, & the freedom to do what I wanted to do when I wanted to. I look forward to returning!

You wouldn't expect a B&B named "Shaker Farm" to be elegant, but that is exactly what you find. From the elegant setting of the dining room table on which the delicious & bountiful breakfasts are served, to the furnishings & decor of the guest rooms. Innkeepers Joe & Cathy make you feel right at home & wanting to return.

Wonderful B&B!! It is a home away from home- very comfortable and relaxing, with an amazing full breakfast every morning! The couple who run it are great, they were very helpful in finding local places to explore.

This was a great stay, with great owners!

My stay at the Shaker Farm B&B was very relaxing, peaceful, and enjoyable. The bed was very comfortable, and the owners were always available to answer any questions we had about the area. The breakfast we were served was beyond our expectations. It was delicious and beautifully presented. I would definitely stay here again.

A real Shaker home w pegs everywhere to hang our belongings. Beautifully decorated rambling home w quaint comfortable rooms. Friendly couple running B&B. DELICIOUS full breakfast prepared fresh by owners. Shaker Museum within walking distance and Enfield only minutes away.
