“Relaxing and Delicious!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2011

people found this review helpful

We just returned from 2 nights here and couldn't have been happier with our stay! Clay is a welcoming host and FANTASTIC cook!! We had gorgeous weather and waking up to a scrumptious breakfast, served outdoors with a water view is PERFECT. We stayed in the French Suite on the first floor, it was nicely decorated and everything was clean and fresh. Bathroom was roomy and it had a jacuzzi tub. Funny, the entire time we were staying here we only saw Clay and the other couples in the house in the morning during breakfast. Any other time we were "home" it was like we had the house to ourselves, privacy was never an issue. If you needed Clay, there are ways to reach him but we were not tripping over him by any means. The house has a very welcoming atmosphere and is super charming. We had pumpkin bread, banana bread and peanut butter cookies for afternoon snack all were sooo good. The snack area stocked with teas, water and soda came in very handy at night after a day of wine tasting.

Besides the location, great host, food and view, a few little things that make a big difference stand out...we loved having a TV. There was lots of information about the area inside the room and brochures at the entrance of the house. Our room had it's own thermostat, very big deal to me because I'm not crazy about sleeping with lots of heat and was glad we were able to control that. Towels smelled so fresh, and the bed linens were so silky soft. Breakfasts were not only delicious - homemade croissants?? really?? YES!! and the time taken with the presentation of each dish really made it feel like a special breakfast - love that! My birthday was on check in day and Clay greeted me with Happy Birthday candies, very nice! We used the coupon from Trip Advisor and got a free bottle of wine. The is located on a cul de sac so it is very quiet. We slept with the window open and the peacefulness outside along with the bay breeze were just what I needed and I look so forward to returning!

Room Tip: The French Suite doesn't have a full water view but definitely enough to satisfy during the smal...

“So relaxing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 September 2011

people found this review helpful

My husband and I stayed at Stirling House for two nights in mid-September, 2011. We absolutely LOVED it. Clay is a wonderful host - he's energetic, has a great sense of humor, and always has tips / advice. The breakfast is AMAZING and since this B&B is on a street that ends by the bay there is hardly any noise or traffic at all (just the crickets!), making it a great place to catch up on rest and relaxation. And since it's within a few blocks of the shops and restaurants in Greenport there's no need to drive or fight traffic.

We highly recommend the Stirling House... we're already looking forward to our next visit!

“Can't wait to go back!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

This is our second stay at the beautiful Stirling House B & B. We had a wonderful relaxing time. Clay makes you feel like you've come home. We spent one night just visiting with him over a bottle of wine, and you feel like you've known him forever. The rooms are beautiful, spotless and comfortable. I have not had such a peaceful sleep in a long time. The breakfasts are unbelievable and the porch offers a wonderful water view. I could have sat there all day on the rocking chair or hammock. We could not wait to come back from our day out to see what wonderful afternoon snack was awaiting us. Clay out did himself every day. We will be back!

“Yet another great stay with Clay at the Stirling House”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

Clay is a terrific host...funny, charming, and full of great advice. It's so nice to talk with a guesthouse owner who isn't pushing restaurants & venues that they get kick backs from. Clay genuinely believes in the places he recommends and gives honest advice. Of course, the Stirling House is a great place to stay right in the middle of Greenport. They are the only north fork B&B allowed to serve wine which is a great feature. We go back every year for a romantic long w/e, and will continue to do so as long as Clay is there! Oh, and his breakfasts are legendary!!

“Impeccable Accommodations and Location, Quiet & Relaxing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2011

Only three rooms in this B&B so it is low key and relaxing. Very comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast and treats in the afternoon. Coffee, tea, and sodas available 24/7. Located with a great view of the water, just a few blocks to quaint downtown Greenport. Ten minutes to the Orient Point ferry. We had a great experience here.
