The Bevin House B&B0

The house is a Connecticut Landmark building. It has been recently restored in an appropriate fashion. Although the pool was closed the house offered a very comfortable period feel. There was several reception/library rooms to spend a quiet time in reading and sipping an evening drink. The owner prepared breakfast to a high standard and took pride in his choice of food and preparation, not the normal American breakfast. Eaten around a large table with the other guests. Ample parking.

The room did not have enough closet/drawer space to unpack a weeks worth of clothing. Most guests stayed for only one or two nights but for longer stays living out of a suitcase was irritating. The bathroom was shared with another double room which was a surprise as it was not clear at the time of booking in the room description that the bathroom was shared. Only one room has an en-suite.

The location was perfect for our plans. Chef Andrew’s breakfasts were hearty and delicious with special gourmet touches each day. Andrew welcomed us warmly when we arrived, giving us a personal tour and history of Bevin House. Add to that our pleasant conversations with him throughout our stay, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bevin House.

Just Kleenex and cups in bathroom.

Wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable hosts. Beautifully restored and furnished historic home. Gorgeous quiet rooms.

The bed comfort was “good” but would be much more comfortable with a nice memory foam topper or new top of the line comfort mattress. As an older adult, it would have been an even better stay if the room had its own toilet. Only one room in the B&B had its own bathroom, but it was booked.

The staff and food, quiet home and location.

Lovely home and grounds!! Although the pool was not really swimable, it would have been nice if it were. Staff and food were awesome. Thank you!

This was a great 19th century house with a fascinating history and period furnishings. The covered back porch was a totally enjoyable experience for breakfast each day.

AC was inadvertently turned off our first night on the 3rd floor and due to our late arrival was endured until the next morning when we mentioned this.

The house is beautiful and has an interesting history. The staff is very friendly and the owner is cool and laid back. There's a pool that must be glorious in the summer and there are even goats and a little duck - what else can you ask for? There's also plenty to do an explore around - I highly recommend it!

the breakfasts were delicious, served on time, creative and the ambiance of the Victorian setting was relaxing and joyful.

the main staircase had to be carefully negotiated by my sister who has balance problems. this challenge should be added to the writeup.

Breakfast was delightful and it was nice to sit out on the porches in beautiful weather.

The house was not quiet at night. There was a lot of music being played at late hours and people moving furniture upstairs after 11pm. An old house creaks and pops but this noise was due to other guests, not staff. Hopefully it isn’t a common occurrence.

Excellent meal on the sunny poach. Host was very helpful.

Bathroom down the hall. I was not aware of this when I booked the stay but it turned out well sharing with only one other guest.

Very welcoming. Very kind. Beautiful house. It was my daughter's graduation weekend. She loves Jane Austen books. The house delivered a memorable weekend for her.
