We went on a mini ski weekend in VT and decided to try something a little different and out of the ordinary. Neither of us has ever stayed at a Bed-and-Breakfast before so instead of staying at a boring hotel we thought we’d try this instead. In short we are so very glad we tried this because we had a wonderful time.
For starters Evelyn and David who run the Village Inn were wonderful hosts. (Thank you Evelyn and David if you ever happen to read this.) They were both very friendly and helpful and it was a genuine pleasure meeting them.
The Village Inn was an absolute joy to stay at. It is a beautiful Victorian from the late 1800’s and is in wonderful condition. It is tastefully decorated with furniture and pieces that give the Village Inn a classic but comfortable feel. Modern amenities exist where they should with modern bathrooms, LCD televisions and etc. Perhaps it was the fresh mountain air or the day of skiing but that was possibly most comfortable bed that I have EVER slept in. Everything was extremely clean and in excellent condition and we simply loved the charm and beauty of the inn.
The town of Woodstock, VT is simply charming. Small, beautiful, quaint… it’s the quintessential Norman Rockwell town right out of a storybook. The center of town is a very short walk from the inn so we walked around town to check out the restaurants and little shops. Woodstock is certainly the type of town that I would love to escape to, get out of the “rat race”, kick back, relax and simply enjoy life. (Perhaps I can’t do this permanently just yet but a weekend is certainly better than nothing.)
We had the complimentary breakfast at the Village Inn before we left for the slopes and it was simply delicious. The dining room is cozy and the fresh fruit, juice and waffles was exactly what I needed before a day of skiing. And speaking of skiing… Ascutney Mt. and Suicide Six are just a few minutes away and Killington is about 20-25 minutes down the road. A while ago we started photographing covered bridges and there were many local ones for us to enjoy.
This was our first time ever at a bread-and-breakfast and it was such a great experience that we can’t wait to do it again. Since Woodstock, VT is near several attractions we will certainly be staying at the Village Inn again and we are already looking forward to it.
