|||
![]() Nestled in the beautiful Skylands region of New Jersey, the house now known as the Whistling Swan Inn was built in 1905 by the Justice of Peace, Daniel Best for his wife, Sarah. After passing through six families, this wonderful old house was restored to its turn-of-the century Victorian splendor and converted to a Bed and Breakfast in 1985. We have kept the flavor of a vintage family home from a friendly welcome and refreshments at arrival to a sumptuous breakfast in our dining room or on our pillared porch. Walk through the front door, and relive the romance and hospitality of an era past. Relax on the porch overlooking our Victorian garden. Read the morning paper on a porch rocker, swing on the porch swing, take a nap in the side-yard hammock, or sit in our parlour and dining room with new-found friends. These are just a few of the ways our guests enjoy our home. Later, enjoy fine dining at one of the Skylands gourmet restaurants, some within walking distance of the Inn. Highlight your evening at a local entertainment spot or simply take a stroll and enjoy the quiet. Once the evening is over, snuggle up with your special someone and enjoy a glass of sherry and homemade cookies next to a crackling fire in our cozy guest parlor. When ready to retire, sink into your queen sized featherbed and fall asleep to a movie from our video library.
