The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was spotless and very comfortable, handicap accessible with convenient free parking. Breakfast was unique in our experience. We registered the night before for breakfast, the time we wanted to eat and chose what we wanted from the menu options. Everything was made fresh from scratch with fresh baked pastries included! Our cook welcomed us and made us feel like we were in our in home eating with family. Overall, I would highly recommend The Black Walnut Inn!

Classic New England
The Inn is a beautiful historic mansion turned into a most comfortable B & B. We stayed in a large room in the original portion of the house. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed a very delicious breakfast each day and I appreciated that I could invite a guest to join us.
