We have visited and spent time in some nice B&B Inns in the northeast and can say with conviction that this has been an all around wonderful place.

Our host, Victoria, treated us with genuine warmth and made us feel at home from the moment we arrived.

If you like antique tall four post trundle beds with comfortable mattresses, hot coffee and a wonderful breakfast served with not just a smile but also genuine conversation, this may just leave you with the same warm feelings we had.

We loved the Tidewater Inn, and the hostess,Victoria, and the food, the food, the food!!!!!!
Don't go if you want to get back into your clothes! Victoria's breakfasts are awesome, as is her hospitality; the Inn is beautifully furnished and immaculately clean and comfortable.
Victoria was welcoming, and helpful about places to visit, shop and eat, and even gave me two of her recipes.
do stay ther - you'll love it!

Very comfortable rooms, lovely gardens, fabulous hospitality, delicious breakfasts, and an excellent location with lots to do. We've been coming here for several years and Victoria has always made us feel at home, and is very helpful with recommending restaurants for dinner. Choose The Tidewater for your next get-away... you won't be disappointed.

This was our third stay at the Tidewater Inn. The proprietor, Vicky, is very friendly. She loves to talk, but even more she loves to cook, and she makes awesome breakfasts, something different every day. She also offers guests wine, cheese, fruit and conversation 5-7 pm daily. The inn is immaculate, the rooms are charming, filled with 4-poster beds and old-style furniture - but up-to-date private bathrooms and TVs! The Tidewater is 1 mile from beautiful Hammonasset State Park, with 3 separate beaches and a nature center. Vicky will also give you passes to any of 3 Town beaches, each of which has its own character. There's plenty of good dining nearby, an excellent small theatre in Ivoryton, a museum in Old Lyme (each less than half an hour away), a good movie theatre in town, charming artsy shops and antiqueing - there's loads to do. We look forward to returning there as soon as we can get away again.
