Shaker Hill Bed and Breakfast


  • Inn Details

    Shaker Hill B&B is a lovingly updated 1790's colonial home set on 24 acres in the Upper Valley of New England. The original wide board floors set off the charm of each of the four bedrooms. All of the rooms are unique and designed for comfort with down comforters and pillows, comfortable chairs, and plenty of light for reading. The house is wrapped in a large covered porch, perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Join us at the end of the day for refreshments - a home baked treat to satisfy that sweet craving. The living room is to be enjoyed and is stocked with books, games, television and VCR. Breakfast is served in the paneled dining room - in front of a crackling fire during the chilly winter months. Centrally located with ready access to many attractions and events in both New Hampshire and Vermont, the Shaker Hill Bed and Breakfast is designed to make your stay a special one.

    Our stay at Shaker Hill B&B was perfect. Our room was beautifully furnished with antiques and exquisite Shaker pieces. Everything was so clean and cozy, and our bed was so comfortable. Breakfast was always delicious, beautiful, and creative. Ben and Bo, the innkeepers' dogs are a delight, and Nancy and Allen are pretty special too! The rates are so reasonable. It will be our new "home away from home" for our getaways.

    My wife and I traveled here on the second night of our honeymoon and absolutely loved it! Al and Nancy were wonderful and made the stay comfortable. The breakfast was truly incredible, and possibly worth the price of admission all on its own! The room was clean, and beautiful. And you could not beat the view, as well as their beautiful property. We would highly recommend this to anyone who is in the area! Furthermore, the price was very reasonable, and well worth every penny!

    I thoroughly enjoyed my overnight at Shaker Hill B&B. The Herb Garden room was charming and comfortable with everything I needed. The morning brought an outstanding treat as their 5 Star breakfast appeared on the table, course by course. Al and Nancy, along with their pooches, were warm and welcoming. This was a wise choice for me.

    Nancy's scones are worth the stay by themselves. Not to mention the Morning Glory Muffins. But it only gets better from there. We started our breakfast with the most delicious fruit course. It was a poached pear with a light glaze and vanilla yogurt. Then we had a delightful spinach and cheese rolled omelet. Nancy's food is tremendous. Nancy and Al are gracious hosts. Our first morning we were heading out early to ski and were going to miss breakfast. Nancy provided us with scones, muffins, fruit and coffee early so we wouldn't miss out. It was unexpected but greatly appreciated. The accommodations are homey and comfortable. Each room has its own bathroom. Each room is filled with a collection of antiques-furniture, fixtures, bedding, and accessories. The sitting room is comfortable and full of books, magazines and comfortable chairs. A great place for quietly reading a book, or an engaging conversation with fellow guests. There is a TV, but I never heard it on the whole time I was there! On our second morning we were glad not to miss breakfast with the other guests. Besides the wonderful food, we had an engaging conversation. Five out of the seven people at the table happened to be educators and we had a lively conversation about different perspectives in American education. Nancy joined in as well. We were all reluctant to leave the table as it was refreshing to have a reasoned conversation with others who share your concerns about the direction of your profession. It was a wonderful opportunity. This place is a gem. If you want a relaxing atmosphere, with great hosts and wonderful food, this is the place for you. Nancy, Al, and their wonderful dog, Ben made us feel welcome and like part of the family.
