    We have celebrated New Years for the last two years with our closest friends. Absolutely outstanding. We wanted our married childten to have the opportunity for Brian to give them the ultimate dining experience, so a gift at Christmas was the ideal present. They are going to love it.

    This charming B&B in New London, NH was an excellent place to stay. The dinner was of four-star, gourmet restaurant quality, a real treat and a bargain. Beautifully furnished common room with spectacular view over the lake and mountains. Highly recommended. -- Michael Lindgren, New York City.

    We could not have been happier with our recent stay at the Inn at Pleasant Lake! When we arrived Owner/Chef was outside watering the beautiful gardens, and he even carried our bags up to the top floor while we were checking in. From beginning to end, we were warmly welcomed by every staff member that we came into contact with. We made use of the kayaks that the inn provided, and saw the loons with babies out on the lake. Highlight was definitely the five course meal. Lobster Bisque, Salad, Passionfruit Sorbet with Kiwi, Filet Mignon, and a lovely dessert were all excellent. We can't praise this Inn enough, and will definitely be back!!!!


    Amazing

    Meine Frau und ich (wir leben in Norddeutschland) besuchten dieses Hotel im Oktober 2010 und genossen dort 10 unbeschreibliche Tage. Das Hotel, die Räume, das Essen und besonders das Personal sind hervorragend. Wir hatten nie das Gefühl Hotelgast zu sein; wir wohnten in einer familiären Umgebung. Das Wetter (Indian Summer) hat den Urlaub zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis gemacht. Wir werden dieses Hotel wieder besuchen.
