Inn on Putney Road

Easily the nicest B & B we’ve ever stayed at! So, so beautiful! Everything from the picturesque backyard, complete with early spring garden and gorgeous pottery, to the charming room was just the perfect romantic getaway for my husband and I. Brattleboro is such a funky, lovely town with a great downtown and this place was just right around the corner! And don’t get me started on the breakfast!!! 3 courses with fresh muffins, fruit and granola parfait and veggie and goat cheese quiche - all served with fresh, French press coffee! I wish we could have stayed longer.

Homey yet elegant, the Inn on Putney Road lives up to the charm one looks for in a Bed and Breakfast. It is cozy and the sense of passion for hospitality comes through. My family member and I stayed a couple of nights. When we arrived, we had space to breathe and become acquainted with the room and house. It felt open, welcoming, and was quiet: just what we longed for when escaping to Vermont for nature and peace. The gorgeous antiques were varied. Each common area was a joy to be in. The room was lovely, clean, and nicely arranged. The mini refrigerator in the closet had plenty of space and there was a carafe of water in it as well as seltzers in glass jars. We let the innkeepers know we were vegan ahead of time, and plant-based popcorn and chocolates, made by local companies, were in a basket on the vanity- a thoughtful touch. There were beautiful pottery mugs for tea and coffee in the room, of spring colors. These were also downstairs for use and there were others for sale: souvenirs to bring home. The mugs are made in MN by a small company, Deneen Pottery. The Harney and Sons looseleaf and bag tea was offered in delicious flavors. All of these mostly local and small business offerings added to the experience. The bed was very comfortable and the bath was delightful for easing the muscles after hikes and cool air. The robes were a luxurious touch. We felt like characters in a period drama: going downstairs to play the piano in the fine room with the fireplace, or for a game of pool. There was also a chess table in another small room which was finely decorated. There were board games and books in abundance. The yard had lighting in the trees at night. Past the bubbling fountain in the middle, there were patios that looked through tall pines at the river below. The stars shone brightly, and we warmed in front of the fire. The Inn people we met were Paul, the owner, and also Fay, and Marie. All were brightly welcoming. Breakfast was exquisite with multiple courses. They took care to provide us filling and flavorful meals with plant-based eggs and sausage, potatoes, grapefruit with a sweet crust of and cinnamon covered in fruit, parfait, and French toast with local maple syrup. What a place!

A great place to stay in Brattleboro. I'm really happy to have found and stayed here, this house has great common areas to relax in, great rooms, and more importantly great staff. Paul took care of me from Check-in to Check-out. Breakfast was very good and would recommend. I stayed in the carriage house and it was an easy comfortable stay with great amenities. I liked that the house was only just slightly outside of 'downtown' and definitely a short and easy walk. Was great to have the fireplace and wish I would have stayed longer. Would stay again and would recommend, Stephen
