“For Vermont, it doesn't get more quaint than this!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

I was visiting Vermont for the first (let alone Newfane) but the minute we drove up to The Four Columns Inn someone should've yelled "cue the bunnies!" It was something out of a Rockwell painting or like the opening credits on the old Newhart Show from years back!

At the reservations desk you enter the main "house" complete with a dinning room with wonderful cooking and a lovely continental breakfast every morning that is sure to start your snowy day off right. There's also a lovely sitting room with a warming fireplace to take the chill off.

Our room was in the building with the "four columns" out front. A spacious, warm, full-of-light modern room with a gas fireplace in the middle of the room that allowed you to see through to the bathroom. And what a bathroom it was!!! Two pedestal sinks and a huge jacuzzi tub and large separate shower.

What put this place over the top for me were the "nicer than nice" owners who graciously saw to our every request. See, we were there for a small wedding with 14 people and the whole thing took place at the Inn... from the ceremony in the front sitting room to the cocktail hour and delicious dinner in the back room. It was a magical weekend and the perfect romantic place for a wedding let alone a winter wonderland stay. I wish we had seen more of the town but if you're going to be tied up at a B&B all weekend, this is the one you want to be at!! :)

“Perfect Night in Newfane”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 December 2011

We stayed in one of the luxury suites at the Four Columns Inn Saturday night - WOW! It is definitely one of the best rooms I have ever stayed in! Someone wrote in a review that Room #4 is the best in Vermont - they were correct! From the moment we arrived at the Inn we knew it would be a wonderful time. The inn keeper's were extremely friendly and made us feel welcomed. Dinner was absolutely delicious but a little pricey. Breakfast was equally as good, but comes with your stay. We highly recommend the Inn for a long weekend or even just a night - you will be glad you did!

Room Tip: Definitely book a luxury suite - worth the extra $$.

“Our favorite Vermont Inn”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

We have stayed at the Four Columns several times over the past 15 years.

The current owners are incredibly accommodating and the rooms are exceptionally clean and comfortable, and charmingly eclectic. They have done a lovely job of updating the Inn while retaining the classic charm and tradition. The in-room gas fireplaces are a terrific feature, and you can use them most months in Vermont!

We had an opportunity to dine with a large party at the restaurant on our most recent visit, and the service and food were very good.

Room Tip: Four Columns building is our favorite for original charm!

“Fabulous Inn and Restaurant”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2011

My wife and I stayed at the Four Columns Inn & Restaurant on two different occasions in 2011--August & November (for my birthday). Each time the experience was very special--clean & beautiful rooms, exquisite grounds, tremendously helpful staff and outstanding food. It's close to Brattleboro, VT and convenient to many other attractions and restaurants. From making a reservation, to checkout, the service was truly special. The dining room is beautiful and the included breakfast wonderful. I highly recommend this inn and plan to go back again soon.

“a little overpriced”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011

thought the decor was a bit dated, although the room was very comfortable and clean. The food had very good reviews but we did find it rather expensive. The breakfasts were, however, amazing and we loved them. It was a great location, and the hosts were extremely helpful.
