It was a very nice suite. Breakfast in the room was convenient and at our pace. We had a late check in and it was very smooth. Would absolutely stay again.

Old uneven floors, very little service unless you asked and then put up with the excuses. Not at all pleasant to stay here. Feels like it is a aggravating pastime for reluctant owners. Avoid.

A quaint, lovely inn. Room was well-appointed with everything that we could possibly need. We stayed three nights in the Cambridge Room. Unfortunately we stayed on days that the restaurant was closed so we didn't get to have our dinners there. A continental breakfast was provided for us in our room as well as a well-appointed basket of snacks. We are hoping to retire to the area and we will be sure to return during our house hunting trips!

I travel a lot for work on my own in remote areas of NH & VT, so finding a safe and comfortable place to stay is very important to me. The staff at Birchwood were so kind and welcoming. My room was well prepared and very clean. The only thing that made me a little nervous was the back door in the room because I was unsure if the lock actually worked and only a thin see through drape covered the window. Just something to be cognizant of for young women traveling alone! Overall, I loved my stay and would definitely come again!

The room was well appointed and the bed was very comfortable. The location was perfect for our travel and the town was lovely and peaceful. It was so nice not to wake up to mowing and blowing. The tavern looked great but wasn't open the night we stayed but we will return and check it out. We had everything we needed and more. I almost forgot that it was also spotless.

Wonderful ambiance at this historic inn! The owner and staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean. So many little touches that made the stay homey. Loved having a basket of snacks and breakfast food provided to be able to eat in our room and relax in the morning. They accommodated my dietary restrictions that I had notified them of at time of making reservation. The interior decorating fit the historic building perfectly! Giving a feel of old, but with the comforts and cleanliness of new. Dinner in the restaurant was delightful with good food and live music (Thursday night).We slept well and enjoyed our stay.

Seemed friendly until they wanted to close an hour before closing time on a Saturday. Be sure to have a back up plan for something to do after 8 o'clock on a Saturday night if you are staying at the in, because Carmen is not hanging around just for you...even if you had a $100 dinner and tipped her $40...kinda lame.

Wonderful New England atmosphere
Charming New Hampshire Inn and Restaurant. We both enjoyed dinner at the restaurant and stayed overnight. Staff were friendly and attentive. The manager even moved her car so we would have a parking space close to the Inn. The food was really good, and we appreciated that they like to use locally sourced produce and meats.
Our only complaint may be outside of their control. There was an outside door to our room, and there was an odd noise outside and on the door for most of the night (wind? critter?). It wouldn't deter us from staying again.
Definitely recommend this business.
