Inn Amenities
The Gathering Room
Just off the main lobby of the inn, centered around a large open fireplace that used to be the original cooking fireplace in 1812, is the formal "gathering/dining room." Here, Bev has provided a pair of high-back wing chairs and a camelback sofa for guests to settle in for conversation or just relaxing by the fire. A toasty fire is kept tended daily for 10 months of the year, excluding our summer months of July and August.There is a pair of striking oriental carpets dividing the "gathering room" into two specific areas. The second part of the room is where breakfast is served when there is overflow from the Inn's oversized country kitchen. The dining room table and chairs are "centennial Chippendale" pieces that belonged to the original Lord family. This dining room set, as well as one of the Inn's beds, are the only original furniture which can be traced to the Lord family.
There is a second common room on the first level of the Mansion. The original "summer kitchen" retains the authentic fireplace and brick oven. This room is used for small corporate meetings and also has a TV for guest use.
