This is my experience (5/15/12 to 5/2012): When we arrived one evening, Gilja strongly urged us to take a "free upgrade" to another room....I couldn't understand why. Turns out, the room she had booked us in did not have an in-suite bathroom!! She did not mention when we booked the room that there was no bathroom. My husband said, "You... More

I picked this place based on the tripadvisor reviews and was not disappointed. Breakfast was wonderful and Gilja's attention to detail pays off in many ways. One commenter noted that historic Kennett Square is pretty small and that is true--so don't expect to fill your day there. Still, it's nice that this B&B is walking distance from the handful of...

We took a long weekend in Kennett Square to see local attractions. We really enjoyed staying here. Gilga was an amazing hostess. Breakfast each morning was delicious. She was very friendly and always recommending local things to do nearby. More

This B&B was centrally located for our trips to the Brandywine Museum and Longwood Gardens. The room was very neat, clean. We enjoyed the breakfast and conversation with other guests. Our room was a special deal from the internet. Checked online and there are often one night specials only even though a 2 night stay is requested. More

We were fortunate enough to get the last room at Kennett House on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Our main destination was to see the awesome decorations and magical lights at Longwood Gardens for the holidays, but the next best thing was "coming home" to Kennett House and our lovely hostess, Gilja. We were thrilled when she served her delicious french... More

I loved the home...it was beautiful, spotless and comfortable. Gilja was very sweet and breakfast was nice. I was a little disappointed in Kennett Square, nice quaint town, but not much to see...only a handful of shops and restaurants...I thought there was more. Luckily we were going to Longwood Gardens, which is only a few minutes away. I'm sure there... More

Thanks you for an excellent stay. The bed was extremely comfortable, the house lovely and interesting, the breakfast was amazing. The Longwood tour was beautiful with all the decorations and the fountain light show was great. The dinner gift certificate allowed us to have an excellent dinner at Kyoto's. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys sushi. Thank... More

We had a pleasant stay at the Kennett House. I booked the Brandywine room without realizing that its private bath is in the hallway. It was fine because robes were supplied by Gilja, Very convenient to everything and walking distance to town. More

My husband & I arrived at Kennett Square after travelling from Brussels where my husband had had his wallet stolen, which included his drivers license. Gilja was wonderful, couldn't have been more helpful & insisted on being our chauffer until a replacement license was received. Gilja is like a friend & treats everyone as an honoured guest. Breakfasts were the... More

Stayed for a weekend after a Friday evening wedding. Gilja was concerned about our arrival time and called us en route to make sure we would have time to change before the wedding. She is the ultimate B&B owner. Lovely rooms, spotless, large front porch. Breakfast was a delight each morning. The fresh fruit was beautifully presented and she gave... More
