I had stayed here before but it’s such a lovely place that I wanted to come back. Lovely room, comfortable bed. Jetted tub. Drinks were available as was a delicious cookie. Grounds are beautiful and I really liked the Lounge area. They have a pool but I didn’t use it. Breakfast made fresh.

My wife and I loved our stay at this bed and breakfast. We loved the room, that included a Jacuzzi for two, as well as the beautiful grounds that included a swimming pool, outdoor Jacuzzi, etc. The common area offered free coffee and drinks 24/7, and a beautiful dining room where we were served a wonderful home-cooked breakfast both days that we were there. The innkeeper 's, Sarah and Ryan, were a pleasure to meet and talk to, and their hospitality was accommodating and outstanding. All of this for no more than the cost of a hotel, we will definitely be back to to stay and visit the nearby Bull run restaurant, that offers great food and live entertainment year round. We will likely go just to hang out at the bed and breakfast and enjoy all that they have to offer. Thanks to Sarah and Ryan for making this birthday getaway one that we will remember!! Tom & Paula.

Perfect Little Get Away
This was a solo relaxation get away after a weekend with kids and it was perfect. The room was quiet and comfortable with everything I needed. They had drinks and snacks downstairs but honestly I was so tired I was just looking for a comfortable place to rest and rejuvenate. The jetted tub was so relaxing before I went to bed. It was just what I needed. I slept better than I have in a long time. The bed was very comfortable with plenty of soft pillows.

A hidden secret in Fitchburg, MA
For the wedding we stayed at our very first B&B. Howarth House Bed and Breakfast in Fitchburg, Mass. It is a beautiful house built in 1910. The current owners, Sarah and Ryan purchased the house in 2020. The owners were friendly, kind, accommodating and Ryan can sure cook a great breakfast. Sarah presented us with a departing gift of her homemade Blueberry and white chocolate scones. Delicious! The room was comfortable, the location quiet and we will definitely be back. I wish I had taken more pictures of the house and the gardens. They also have a pool, hot tub and chickens! We booked this B&B through Hotels.com but you can also call them direct. Thank you, Sarah and Ryan for sharing your home with us.
