    A great place to go and relax. Great food, warm, cozy bed and "soft water" for the shower. I'm gluten intolerate and Helen prepared a "safe" breakfast, while Larry provided great entertainment. Loved the music and the local lore. We appreciate the extra effort. Retirement has opened a lot of B&B doors for us over the past couple of years and this is definitely one of the cleanest and most charming. Decorations rate a high 10..... Thanks for the memories.. We will be back... Pete & Judy Fairmont, WV

    We recieved a gift certificate from our family for this Inn for our 25th Anniversay. When we called to make our reservation we were told we could not use this certificate during the month of October. The Inn sold this certificate to our family and never stated anything about limitations or exceptions, nor does the certificate itself indicate any limitations. The innkeeper advised us that they only recently began this policy for gift certificates. It was not in place when they sold one to my family and never discussed it any manner. I understand the innkeeper can do anything he wants with his Inn but the new policy should only be in effect for gift certificates he sells after he institutes the new policy. Good business practice dictates that the seller honor his obligations made at the time of the sale and fulfill the transaction that was made in good faith with the buyer. It could be interpreted as deceitful to sell a gift certificate to someone and then when they try to use tell them, oh, by the way, we changed the rules in the middle of the game. Gift certificates sold prior to the inception of this new policy should be honored under the good faith of that sale and the rules in place at that time. If the rule was in place at the time my family made the purchase, they wouldn't have bought it and instead gone some place else so we could enjoy a few days during our actual anniversary month. Sadly, we just don't know what to do...............

    Innkeeper Response
    Following a phone conversation with the review writer, further research was done and it was concluded that the decision to exclude the month of October on previously purchased gift certificates should be reconsidered. The change in policy, therefore, will apply only to gift certificates purchased after the change and on which the words “GC not valid during October” appear. New gift certificates will continue to be valid for two years from the issue date (excluding October), which affords recipients ample opportunity to enjoy their gift.

    This was our first time there and we were joined by our sister and brother-in-law from California. We enjoyed the immaculate room and our "stuffed" French Toast was incredible. People forget that at a B&B you are a "guest" usually in someone's home and need to remember the hosts and their preferences. I have stayed in many similar accomodations all over the world and if you are not flexible you should not be traveling.

    My husband and I recently stayed at the Lamp Light Inn Bed and Breakfast. Larry and Helen were fantastic hosts. We were the only guests staying with them at the time, but we still received wonderful service. We thoroughly enjoyed Larry's performance at breakfast, and we wish that all of our breakfasts could be as tasty as the one that Helen made for us. Our stay at the Lamp Light Bed and Breakfast was actually a gift, but we will definitely be returning. The rooms were beautiful and spacious. The king sized bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed having private access to our room. The bathroom was large, with a nice sized jacuzzi and a shower as well. There was a large selection of movies at our disposal. There are plenty of local attractions, and the area is simply lovely. Thank you Larry and Helen. We had such a wonderful time in your gorgeous bed and breakfast.
