Enjoy the picturesque New England countryside at our small 9-room inn, tucked away on 5 acres in Connecticut’s lovely Litchfield Hills. We offer an adult-oriented property perfect for rest, retreats, and romance. Cuddle up with a good book in our sun room or one of the Adirondack chairs on our lawn or consider:

- Covered Bridge Electric Bike Tours
- Craft brewery tastings at local farm breweries
- Walking tour of Norfolk, our charming New England village with historic architecture
- Concerts at Infinity Music Hall, an intimate concert venue just a short walk from the inn
