“Charming, but bone cold.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011

We stayed at the Inn for one night. We had a nice dinner with a couple of drinks, after dinner we enjoyed the songs and key boarding of a cute mature couple. They're locals who have entertained for years. Several others finished dinner and enjoyed the old time songs. It was quite charming and we felt like locals in an old Inn. The renovation of the Inn could have been better...The bed was indeed uncomfortable at best and the heat never, I do repeat never came up in the room. Breakfast was supposed to begin at seven am, it was closer to 7:45. We had a full day and would have enjoyed a more prompt start. We assumed(yes, I know)the temperature would be warmer down stairs. We were wrong, by the time we finished breakfast we were chilled to the bone. Several times, we asked to have the heat turned up(there are no thermostates in the rooms)but were told the heat was on and in an old building it takes a while, a while never came. There was also no sound from a furnace, I lived in a very old large home as a child, the furnace was our background noise and if an old house is kept warm-it stays warm. The hum of the furnace was no where to be heard. The owners and innkeeper were pleasant, even when they said the heat was on but that is no way to save on expenses. We asked for a space heater but that was a no-no. Not in an old house like that- please!! If we had adequate heat this would have been a higher rating. But saving on heat in New England is not the way to economize. The plates were also cold, it takes nothing but forethought to heat the plates while making breakfast. Also, the orange juice came directly from the bar, bar juice is not what should be served at an Inn for breakfast. Attention to small details such as heat and quality of food/drinks is expected when the Inn advertizes itself to be a cut above. The owners seem very pleasant, hopefully they'll realize it's the little things that make a stay great or less than great.

Room Tip: Choose a room with heat and a decent bed.

“A very pleasant stay!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2011

My husband and I stayed overnight at this charming B&B while we were up in NH for a friend's wedding. The location is very easy to find and it was 1 mile down the road from where the reception was which made it a nice, quick commute for us. We stayed in "Tracy's Room" which was appointed tastefully and boasted it's own bathroom. The bed linens were so soft and squishy but it was so humid we unfortunately did not have need for them. The fan provided for the room gave us enough cool air to sleep comfortably. Breaskfast the next morning was a sunny affair. The gentleman that checked us in also served us our breakfast with a smile. Texas toast buttered all the way to the edges, bacon cooked perfectly, crispy, not greasy, light, fluffy scrambled eggs, and fresh fruit, juice and coffee. It was the perfect send off after a wonderful night! Although we did not get the chance to enjoy it, the pub looked inviting and cozy. The only suggestion I would make would be to have some kind of snack available at night after the kitchen closes. We were starving after the wedding and didn't want to go back out into the driving rain to the convenience store. But that isn't a complaint, more of a suggestion. :-)

“Very Nice B & B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

The Monadnock is situated just a few miles from Jaffery and a few miles from Petersborough.

The rooms are very nice, each one being a little bit different. Excellent bed and shower. The staff was always available and eager to please. they have a bar and restaurant. We did not eat at the restaurant but the menu seemed excellent and prices reasonable. Saturday night they had a full house at the restaurant/bar.

The Inn is jsut a mile from Shattuck gold club.

Room Tip: We had room 304 which was very nice

“Nice place in the Monadnock region.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

Stayed in room 302, the kelly suite for one night. Arrived late, around 10pm so I did not have dinner there. I was greeted by name and found the man who checked me in to be friendly and helpful. He gave me information on the inn and it's services and offered to help with the luggage, there were two adults and two teens in our party. The room was on the top floor so be aware if you don't like stairs. Room 302 was of a good size for the four of us, remember this is like being in an old house. The bathroom was also large and we found it suited us fine. The rate was on the higher side however it did include a full breakfast which was good. Alot of the furniture was antique as it should be in a place like this. I was provided with a fan, no ac and this worked to cool the room fine. This room is on the front so there is a bit of noise now and then but overall it was quiet. The two doubles were fine to sleep on and everything was in working order. Our evening and morning here went well for all of us and we had a pleasant stay.

Room Tip: It appears that the mid section of the inn may have the largest rooms.

“Warm and cozy, welcoming and inviting, that has been our experience, every time we stop at this delightful Inn & Pub”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2010

Have had the chance to stay at this Inn on a number of occaisions (family in the area, kids at local schools, and the area is one we really enjoy) and have always meant to write a review to share this hidden gem with others.
The Inn, which as just 13 rooms, is clearly very old (and creaky) but so prettily decorated, is so comfortable and relaxing. The staff and owners are very friendly and make every effort to make all feel welcome and yet allow folks to have their privacy.
Rooms are lovely, beds comfy and a great place to rest and recuperte.
The restaraunt is wonderful, menus interesting and food, always beautifully presented, is delicious. The pub is small but cozy and the changes made over the past ffew years have expanded space for sitting back and enjoying a drink or coffee. We look forward to our next stay - probably in the srping
