Absolutely fabulous weekend...our hostess, Gilja, could not have been warmer or more accommodating. We stayed in the Delaware Room, which is actually a two room suite including the enclosed former sleeping porch; it was cozy and just large enough for the two of us and our stuff for three days. The bed linens were sumptuous and the decor is wonderful.... more

I had a great stay at the Kennett House! I am traveling nearly every week for work, and it was refreshing to feel like I was at home for a week. Gilja made me feel welcome, comfortable and relaxed. The room was gorgeous, with fresh linens, a soft bathrobes and luxury soaps and lotions! All of the little details really... more

We stayed at this bed and breakfast in Sept of 2007 and were very impressed with the house, the hostess, and the amenities and appointing of the rooms. The location is great, only a couple block walk to the quaint shops and restaurants in Kennett Square. The only complaint we had was with the breakfasts. For both mornings we had... more

My husband and I just returned from a two night stay at the Kennett House and we can't say enough good things about it. We are seasoned B&B travelers and we know a good one when we see it! The hostess was most charming and very knowledgeable about the area and the local restaurants and was most happy to make... more

only 4 rooms in this fantastically maintained circa 1910 home and gilja the new owner is barely a whisper of a woman but she sure gives supersize comfort. even tho' the rooms aren't big either, they were very quiet, clean and high quality. there is a nice large round table in an upstairs (all rooms on 2nd floor) sitting area... more

We spent 3 nights at the Kennett House and thoroughly enjoyed every one. Gilja was a wonderful hostess and very helpful with directions and things to do in the Brandywine area. She made us feel "at home". We LOVED the breakfasts so don't be put off by the previous post. They were delicious and homey and we sat for hours... more

We stayed at the Kennett House based on the wonderful reviews we saw on Trip Advisor. We were looking forward to meeting Carol and Jeff the owners of the B and B who received very high ratings based on their gourmet breakfasts and personal touches. Unfortunately when we arrived, we found out that they had sold the B and B... more

Jeff & Carol provided our entire 8 person party a wonderful experience. My wife turned 40, and I organized a surprise party for her in a local restaurant (Half Moon, also highly recommended). Long before we arrived, Jeff and Carol were polite and responsive to inquiries and requests for information about the local area. In every response, their recommendations about... more

This B&B is well-situated for enjoying Brandywine Valley (Longwood Gardens, Winterthur, etc.) and dining is just a few blocks away from this great old granite home on a quiet part of the main street of Kennett Square. We stayed in the spacious and comfortable Longwood Suite -- best night's sleep on our trip! -- and enjoyed a hearty breakfast the... more
