From the moment we arrrived there and Dora, one of the owners, greeted us with her beautiful British accent, to the moment we left when we were chatting away with co-owner (and Dora's husband) David, it was a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. My husband and I were able to relax and it was just a short walk to the "center" of town (which is quite small) but adorably quaint. The small scale of Woodstock and the stores closing earlier forces one to simply just be...and relax. The breakfasts, as everyone boasts about, were all that. They were delicious, cooked to order, and the maple and pork sausages...Hmmmmm! All of the meals were cooked with local ingredients which made the meal that much more special. They had a little area to make your own coffee, tea and Dora had biscotti and her homemade fruit cake there on a daily basis (also an endless supply of indulgent chocolate candy which my husband and I could NOT stop eating). It was a wonderful experience, both Dora and David, were very helpful with dinner suggestions, and they were lively with a great sense of humor. This B&B is for a person of any age, who is young at heart and likes 'something a little different" then the typical B&B!

My wife and I stayed at the Woodstocker about 18 months ago, and were eager to return when I had a conference in Woodstock. Coincidentally they were having a two-for-one special, so we brought friends. Everyone enjoyed the decor and feel of this B&B, the food and hospitality.

Our friends commented that they hadn't enjoyed a previous B&B experience because they felt forced to be more social with strangers; at the Woodstocker there is opportunity to make new acquaintances among fellow guests, but it is also very easy to have 'alone time'.

We were also pleased with their recommendation for dinner at the Eastender, a very good restaurant in town where a 10% discount is offered to Woodstocker guests.

By the time we were leaving, we and our guests were talking about family and friends who might appreciate our recommendation to visit the Woodstocker. As for us, we're considering making this particular conference and Woodstocker escape an annual tradition.

It being our first stay at a B&B we weren't sure what to expect but the Woodstocker Inn was an absolutely wonderful experience. Plenty of peace and quiet, delightful folks both running the Inn and staying there as guests. We are outdoors people, skiing ,hiking and such but I found the proximity to the quaint village through quiet backstreets along the river just great. The food was just tremendous,you've got to have the fresh yogurt with fresh granola and fruit. Once again we thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience from the accomodations to the people to the restaurant recommendations, to the XC skiing, to the wonderful walks downtown. Thanks to the owners, D2, for the wonderul experience. Jim & Mary P.

I am not a B&B person. I am practically allergic to floral bedding, chintzy decorations and four-poster beds. In this regard, the Woodstocker truly lives up to its billing as a cozy, but contemporary inn, "like going back to your parents' house, but your parents aren't there." As I sat in the dining area eating my delicious eggs scrambled, pork and maple sausage (which you must try) and roasted tomatoes, and looked out at the snowy backyard, it truly felt like I was in my parents' home, but with better coffee (Bodum French Press!).

My boyfriend and I stayed in the Westminister on the second floor. The room is bright and spacious. The bed was enormous and absurdly comfortable. The bathroom is stunning, with the twin bathtubs -- perfect after a day of tumbling down the slopes at Killington (a mere 15 min. drive). My only criticism is that there were too many different light settings that I could not get a handle on (but maybe that's my problem).

It is obvious that the owners/hosts, Dora, David and Stanley had a clear vision of what they wanted to build, and have put a lot of care into every detail. They are accessible, friendly, interesting, and inspirational.

Indeed, my only regret is that we could only stay for 2 nights. But, even as we were packing up for the long drive back to New York City, I was already thinking of when I could come again to curl up in the Inn's enviable library with a stack of books, a cup of tea, and some tasty homemade fruitcake.
