Bed and Breakfast Description

An elegant 16-room Greek Revival mansion just off the commons in the historic district of beautiful Petersham, in central Massachusetts. Across from a 32-acre wildlife meadow preserve, views of Mount Wachusett and the countryside reflect the tranquility of this classic New England town.

Completed in 1842, the inn has been gracefully restored, retaining much of its original ambiance. Five beautifully appointed guest rooms, each with a private bath and most with a working fireplace assure a stay of comfort and relaxation. Our brand new Tuscany Suite is a romantic retreat with a cozy sitting room containing a fire place and pull out sofa. The bedroom overlooks the grounds with three windows. The bathroom has a Jacuzzi tub and separate stall shower. Each guest room has its own distinct personality and color scheme. A delightful breakfast with hot entree is served in the formal dining room each morning.

Our guests can relax in the newly redecorated living room or curl up with a good book in the library. Both rooms have lovely fireplaces. Winterwood has two screened porches, a deck and a hammock in the shade all of which may be used to spend a lazy summer afternoon with a cool drink.

Winterwood at Petersham has the ideal setting that will make your event a most memorable one. Winterwood has hosted intimate weddings, rehearsal dinners, birthday and anniversary celebrations, corporate events and cocktail receptions, and chosen "Editor's Pick" from Yankee Magazine.
