Fodor's Expert Review Barnstead Inn

This boutique inn has created its own little oasis, taking 1830s farmhouse lodging to the next level by pairing New England charm with luxury amenities. Rooms have modern comforts and special touches like the stone fireplace in the Stratton Suite or the copper soaking tub in the Hildene Suite. In the warmer months, enjoy the property's outdoor swimming pool and flower gardens. Guests can enjoy craft beers and snacks such as salmon bites and charcuterie boards at the onsite Stonewall Tavern. In addition to the human innkeepers, innkeeper pups Lucky and King (both are hypoallergenic breeds) roam around the property, making sure things are up the par for the guests.
