Great hospitality and really nice host. Building is historic so the floors creak and the shower is a bathtub but otherwise a great stay. Breakfast was amazing- totally gourmet/ and the bed was comfy. Really appreciated the host accommodating my late checkin.

We stayed here while in town for a college tour, and loved it! The home is beautifully appointed, and the breakfast was nothing short of amazing. The owner was friendly and accessible, and thought of everything to make our stay comfortable, from a sound machine next to the bed, freshly baked cookies and chilled water in the room, to wine, coffee and tea in the great room. We slept very well, and were sad to leave!

This is a beautiful B&B in semi-rural NJ. We were on our way to New York City from Philadelphia and this was a perfect place to stop. The innkeeper, Lydia, is delightful. There were cookies in our room, wine in the great room and she made us the most wonderful breakfast, included in the original cost. The house itself is very historical and the grounds are super interesting. This is a place we will come again if we ever find ourselves in the area. Do yourself a favor and stay here if you're in the area.

Personalized stay. Beautiful breakfast w seatings at 4 times. Coffee, tea, water available at all times & red wine at night. Easy parking in back & contactless checkin w directions to your room w keys. It’s a lovely old home with fully modern updates. Lydia, the owner, is friendly & responsive without being invasive. Only issue was early noise from passing trucks. Go to bed early & it’s not a problem. It’s a hotel but a home

This was such a beautiful place - roots in the 17th century with rooms totally updated for comfort.
