Have you ever been uncomfortable at a B&B because the owners were too into your business, or the rooms were more museum and less comfy accommodations, or breakfast was about satisfying the cook's ego and not your appetite? Well, we have, and this was NOT one of those B&Bs. Like Goldilocks found things in the home of the three bears,... More

My daughter and I stayed here for one night while visiting Dickinson College. It was a lovely home, lots of privacy, good breakfast, comfortable beds, but most important incredibly helpful hosts. They guided us to restaurant that was really good, which was a pleasant surprise and being from NYC food is important to us.

Best B&B I've stayed out. Mary and Alan are excellent hosts. Clean, comfortable room and great breakfast. Couldn't ask for me.

We booked two rooms at Carlisle House and were thrilled with both. The kids had the absolute cutest room on the top floor. Owner was very helpful and showed us all around and gave us a great idea on that evening's dinner. Would definitely stay here again!

We stayed one night prior to visiting DIckinson College. Room was charming, immaculate, and very comfortable. We got stuck in traffic and didn't arrive until almost 9. Mary was waiting for us and was very gracious about helping us get settled in. The food at breakfast the next day was fabulous. Mary also made sure to introduce all the guests... More

We were visiting Dickinson College and only stayed one night. Alan was a great host who gave us tips about dining and the town. We stayed in a suite which was very nice and the beds were so comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Carlisle.

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our one-night stay at the Carlisle House. Though we didn't get the chance to meet Mary (as she was away), Alan could not have been more welcoming and helpful. From the ideal restaurant recommendation to the delicious breakfast he prepared, he made us feel like the most important people in the world. Our room... More

We were just there for the second time. The rooms are comfortable and clean and the historic home is lovely. The new bathroom this time was divine. Allan and Mary are professional, friendly and helpful. The off street parking was a bonus. We had an excellent meal within walking distance. The breakfasts are wonderful and the breakfast quiche was the... More

I loved my too-brief stay at the Carlisle House. Totally relaxing, wonderful traditional charm with all the modern amenities and conveniences. Alan and Mary are incredibly warm and helpful, without ever being intrusive. And the breakfasts - made by Mary - are unreal.

Enjoyed Carlisle House. Rooms were interesting, well maintained and provisioned, and comfortable. Innkeepers were fantastic, and breakfast was delicious. We will definitely return.
