Black Swan Stay
The Black Swan is a beautiful, old historical home. The owner greeted us and gladly share the history of the home and offered local restaurants for dinner. The breakfast was lovely- French toast, bacon and a fruit custard. I highly recommend driving to Franklin - check out Vulgar Brewery-great pizza and beer.

Don't miss this hidden Gem
We absolutely loved the home and the staff. At first, didn't realize it was a Bed and Breakfast....that was the bonus. The "Care Takers" were warm and friendly. And this OLD home, was not old at all. It was very well taken care of and maintained. Breakfast was delicious. The front porch with rocking chairs, and the river ran past the property. Short walk to a small downtown area with shops and restaurants. Hope to stay again soon.
Our stay here was because we were passing through. We wish we stayed longer!!!!

Midweek getaway
Quant bed and breakfast tucked into a small town. Older building, like most b&b's, so you can hear a lot of sounds. The room we stayed in was perfect for a romantic get away. Breakfast was awesome. Stayed here before and definitely will again. Also, if they are open I strongly recommend heading to Tilton H.O.P., some of the best greek style pizza in all of NH less than a half mile away.
