Hostess, Jeanne Gilbert, is a retired newspaper writer and horseback riding instructor. Her husband, Donald Beardsworth, is a retired print shop worker.

In 1987 we were named Massachusetts Tree Farm of the year.

We opened our doors to B&B guests in 1984. Our guests have come from many countries, each bringing stories about their lives and their heritage.

To celebrate our 25th anniversary we are offering a 25% discount on the second of two consecutive nights. The offer expires December 31, 2009.
