Fodor's Expert Review Beds on Clouds

This lovingly restored Victorian mansion dates from 1854 and retains many graceful architectural touches, as well as a decor that is either completely charming or a bit kooky, depending on how you feel about ceilings featuring handpainted clouds. Rooms are fit for a fairytale, with sumptuous bed linens and pretty color schemes of pink, lavender, and even rainbow. The abundant gourmet breakfast (vegan and vegetarian friendly) includes savory omelets and piles of perfectly cooked buttermilk pancakes. The location, less than half a mile from Windham Mountain and close to many bars and restaurants, is hard to beat.
