    We spent two nights here, celebrating a milestone birthday. Pat was nice enough to bake a special birthday cake on our last morning there, and also sent us off with some delicious gingerbread cookies. The inn is very close to many dining options, as well as plenty of options for walking/running. Glastonbury is a short drive away from Hartford - the Mark Twain house was worth the visit.

    I was at this resort for business and now want to return for pleasure. The owners are so hospitable I feel like family. The decor with artistic yet historic and modern taste to each room gives such elegance to each room. You have original art work on each air conditioner (and throughout the vacinity), a fireplace, amazing shower, breathtaking bed and exquisite furniture in each room. The home-cooked food is delicious to your liking (I don't eat meat and was still pleased). It's quiet, comfortable, elegant, and beautiful yardwork. Nothing negative about this place and the owners are remarkable with generosity and making you welcome.
