Everthing! The Bridges Inn is charming, comfortable, and friendly. Susan extends herself to attend to your special needs and wishes; her son, David creates delicious and generous breakfasts and you soon start to feel part of a family. As a senior lady travelling alone, I was very grateful to have been so warmly welcomed. I loved my pink and white room /bath, the sunny dining room, the great food, and susan, Nick, and David's hospitality, which is genuine. The best!

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding: the host made fresh quiche, potato pancakes, waffles, eggs, cereal, and lots of fresh fruit (all delicious) and he also catered to our special requests. Beautiful old house, well maintained/decorated.

Well appointed 1790 Victorian Inn. David was more than charming and the best breakfast was served by him. We would recommend this any to anyone.

This was a comfortable and friendly b&B. We made last minute accommodations from our smart phone while eating evening dinner. Really did this based on location and price - both which were decent. Susan was very accommodating. We had the last room in the Inn but found it comfortable and quite clean. Breakfast in the morning was excellent and She is very accommodating. Although we don't normally stay at B&B's, this one was better than the norm. We would stay here again and would feel like Susan was a friend. David the chef was not there when we ate breakfast - however he had left his homemade bread, quiches, oven roasted potato hash and a locally made homemade raspberry jam. Breakfast was generous and excellent.

After searching on line for a place to stay in tis area of New Hampshire, I lucked onto Whitcomb House. Lovely old inn nearby to Keene... The owner was very gracious and explained all of the history and made us feel relaxed and like family. Her son the next morning prepared an yummy full breakfast served in a charming dinning room..

Trata-se da residência de uma família, que disponibiliza um andar com algumas suítes para hotelaria, com uma área verde grande em torno, com um coreto e estacionamento gratuito. Fica na Main Street em Swanzey, New Hampshire (perto de Brattleboro), cidadezinha bem pequena, que se conhece rapidamente. Perto dali fica Keene (cerca de 15 minutos de carro), cidade um pouco maior, com um centro interessante, com lojinhas, restaurantes, pubs, etc...O Mais legal é que há cerca de 50 metros da casa há uma ponte coberta(coisa incomum para nós brasileiros). O café da manhã, incluído no preço, foi digno de fotos - um adulto jovem da família, que já cozinhou em restaurantes das cidades vizinhas, prepara uma mesa linda, com um quase "brunch", na estipulada pelo hóspede e estava tudo delicioso!!!! Ficamos num quarto com uma decoração antiga, belíssima, porém a cama era pequena...mas isso não chegou a ser um fator importante na nossa avaliação.

Das Bridges Inn ist ländlich gelegen und eignet sich wunderbar als übernachtungsmöglichkeit und Ausgangspunkt für Erkundungstouren dieser wunderschönen neuenglischen Gegend. Während unserer Ostküstenrundreise entschieden wir uns für das Bridges Inn, da wir nicht nur in Hotels sondern auch einmal in einem original amerikanischen b&b übernachten wollten. Wir wurden nicht enttäuscht! Bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir sehr herzlich empfangen und nach einem kurzen Plausch mit Susan, der Besitzerin des Inns, wurden wir auf unser Zimmer gebracht. Auf Grund unseres vielen Gepäcks bekamen wir von Susan sofort ein größeres Zimmer angeboten und das sogar zum selben Preis! Das geräumige Thompson Bridge Room ist sehr liebevoll und typisch ländlich amerikanisch und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet (viele tolle antike Gegenstände!). Es verfügt über ein sehr gemütliches King-Size Bett, einen Fernseher, w- Lan, einer Kaffeemaschine, viel Stauraum und ein großes Bad mit einer übergroßen Dusche. Wir haben uns wirklich wie zu Hause gefühlt! Falls man Teller, Besteck oder Sonstiges benötigt, kann man einfach Susan fragen bzw. Sich in der Küche bedienen und hat somit alles, was man braucht. Für die Gäste steht im Erdgeschoss ein Kühlschrank zur Verfügung, falls man selbst Essen mitgebracht hat. Das Haus wurde Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts erbaut und wir hatten auch das Gefühl uns in einem besonderen und historischen Gebäude zu befinden. Nach einer erholsamen Nacht erwartete uns ein sehr gutes und reichhaltiges Frühstück (das beste während unseres gesamten Urlaubes), das von Susans Sohn David zubereitet und in einem sehr schönen Frühstücksraum eingenommen wurde. Nach nur einer Nacht mussten wir uns schon verabschieden, obwohl wir gerne noch länger geblieben wären. Unsere Erfahrungen hier haben jede Erwartung übertroffen und die Gastfreundlichkeit der Besitzer und die Einzigartigkeit dieses Inns werden uns immer in Erinnerung bleiben.

We liked the location, the ability to come and go as we pleased, and breakfast. We were also grateful for the quiet. The bed in our room was a little soft for us, but we managed.

Zimmer groß und mit Antiquitäten eingerichtet. Sehr freundliche Besitzerfamilie. Sehr üppiges Frühstück, sehr liebevoll zubereitet. Das schöne Geschirr gab es allerdings nur für die ersten sechs Gäste. Die später hinzukommenden bekamen dann nur einen Kaffee-Pott. Möglichkeit, sich Kaffee auf dem Zimmer zuzubereiten, kleine Schokoladetäfelchen lagen bereit. Covered Bridge 3 min. entfernt. Bett nicht sehr bequem. Vor lauter Dekoration hatte man kaum Platz für die eigenen Sachen. Spitzenhandschuhe auf dem Sessel, historische Kämme/Bürsten auf der Kommode (Geschmacksache!), Zier-Handtücher im Bad. Es gab aber natürlich auch welche zum Benutzen. Das ganze - an sich beeindruckende - Haus ist sehr dunkel durch dicke Vorhänge an den Fenstern. Fenster waren schon lange nicht mehr geputzt worden und waren undicht. Wahrscheinlich alles sehr typisch für ein historisches B&B. Wir fanden es für das gebotene zu teuer.

A most welcoming staff - the Innkeeper said she wanted her guests to feel at home, and we did. It is a lovely old house, furnished with interesting and handsome furniture. The chef was excellent and our breakfast was delicious and generous, all fresh ingredients, Being the Christmas season, the table was set accordingly and looked very pretty. The whole house was very charmingly decorated, we even had a small Christmas tree, complete with lights, in our bedroom. We hope to return again. It was a happy experience. Parking and entrance to the Inn was a little difficult, but only because there was work being done in that area. It did not take away from the charm and welcoming atmosphere of the Inn.

Very nice rooms, friendly atmosphere and a wonderful, home cooked breakfast that was better than you would get most anywhere. We will happily return again when we are in the area. The twin beds were a bit small, but still quite comfortable.
