I have promised my parents a 2-3 day stay at a New England B&B this August for their 30th anniversary. I've budgeted about $400. Airlines are already taken care of. Is it possible AT ALL to get a nice B&B in New England for $300-ish? Everything I've seen that looks romantic starts at like $175/night.
I've been looking mostly in the Providence/eastside of Rhode Island area. I'm not interested in Martha's Vineyard or Cape Cod, unless someone knows some incredible secret. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd be looking for a B&B with private baths, and preferably, at least one ground room floor.
Thanks

Is a weekday excursion possible? B & B's may be a bit higher on the weekends.
Here are a few choices you may consider:
Newport RI
www.melvillehouse.com
www.marshallslocuminn.com
www.captainpreston.com (although this may be out of your price range unless it's a weekday stay.
Also may want to consider the Pillsbury House in Woonsocket RI. While not on the coast it's darling with great rates!

Good luck!
