I just visited with a young couple at breakfast who is celebrating their first

anniversary

here at Hampton Terrace in the Berkshires. It reminds me how many anniversary couples we have here, including a couple who booked the entire inn last year for their 50th. They liked us so much, that they actually came back a few months later and brought some family members who could not make it the first time! Find out why people seem to really enjoy us. CLICK HERE>

A well-known travel executive who recently stayed at Hampton Terrace in Lenox, MA posted the following unsolicited review: What a find Hampton Terrace is! From the time you walk in and are greeted by Stan, the innkeeper, and the winding staircase, you feel a sense of WOW. I was lucky enough to get a tour of the inn, and got to visit many of the rooms. They're all fabulous. The Carriage House King Suites have everything you might want - whirlpool tubs, fireplaces, TVs with DVDs and tons of room. The inn rooms have really captured the history of the building with built-ins found even in the bathrooms. I stayed in room #1, and loved it. The woodburning fireplace added such an ambiance after a long day. Stan, the innkeeper and breakfast cook introduced me to grits. They were really good. There is a fabulous bar in the parlor and Stan gives away gift certificates to the local wine store to people who stay two or more nights, so you can pick out a favorite bottle of wine and then enjoy it at the bar. What a cool idea that is. I didn't get a chance to see the pool uncovered (visited in winter), but the setting is wonderful. I hope to come back when I can see the pool. I highly recommend Hampton Terrace.

Wow. Please come back again! To find out about Hampton Terrace, CLICK HERE

Hampton Terrace was built in 1897 in Lenox, Massachusetts, one of the premier Gilded Age summer communities in America. Neighbors included the Morgans, Astors, Vanderbilts, Carnegies, Westinghouses, Proctors and Whartons. Many of their estates are open for tour, so stay at Hampton Terrace, an inn since 1937 and for a couple of days at least, and immerse in the opulent lifestyle that vanished with the Depression.

Rookwood Inn is an excellent option for staying in Lenox, Massachusetts if you have tried Hampton Terrace and we cannot accommodate your needs. (Hello Amy!) Both were recently visited by Marti Mayne of BedandBreakfast.com as part of her tour of Lenox inns this week. (Hi Marti!)

Could it be Spring? Not quite. Still in the 20s, but the dreary gray could cover is gone and it is REALLY WINDY! Finally, it seems like March. A great time to visit a historic bed and breakfast in the quintessential New England town of Lenox, MA. CLICK HERE.
