A restorative, peaceful getaway! We stayed at the Manor House Inn for a quick anniversary getaway. Just 2.5 hours outside of NYC, the Inn offers a warm and inviting atmosphere. We stayed in the Country French room which offered a nice view of the property and a large soaking tub with luxurious amenities from the linens to the toiletries. The property is charming and thoughtful with attention to detail at its core. We enjoyed playing board games by the fire place with a hot cup of tea at night. We took a hike at Haystack Mountain during the day, which was a short drive from the Inn. The location is ideal being walking distance from the town center and various trails/hiking spots. The Manor House Inn has something to offer for anyone looking to relax, restore, and explore the surrounding beauties! We will definitely be back!

We enjoyed everything about our relaxing two night stay. We enjoyed walking the boardwalk in town, hiking to a local waterfall and reading in the parlor near the fireplace. Our room was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The breakfasts are substantial and delicious. The hosts are charming and knowledgeable. Hope to visit again soon.

We returned to the inn for 3 nights and experienced the same outstanding hospitality, service, and experience as our prior visit 2 years ago. The inn is charming, with various rooms and grounds areas to enjoy the quiet or conversation and connection. The breakfasts were delicious, service was friendly and helpful regarding the region and local activities and events. The bedding and towels were soft and high quality. Tea and coffee, snacks and fresh baked delicious cookies were available throughout the visit. A lovely experience to enjoy a romantic getaway!

We were absolutely thrilled with our micro-wedding at the Manor House Inn in Norfolk, CT. The micro wedding package was thoughtfully designed and included everything we could have hoped for - a beautiful intimate ceremony, lovely decorations, a cocktail hour with a custom signature cocktail, an incredible five-course plated dinner, an overnight stay for us as the couple, and a delicious breakfast the next morning. Rachel’s experience planning weddings truly shines. She spent so much time communicating with me, making sure every detail was perfect and that our day felt special and personal. Her attention to detail was exceptional. The meal was outstanding, the grounds were pristine, and even the turndown service made the experience feel luxurious. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect way to celebrate.

Our experience at the Manor House Inn was absolutely amazing. We got away from noise and business of everyday life, and this was the goal! If you love antiques and vintage, and old books, and quite elegance of a 100 + years old old estate - this is the place for you. The hospitality we got there from Blair was unparalleled.

Absolutely brilliant location to stay while visiting the northwest corner of the state. This is absolutely the most beautiful part of CT. There is so much to do nearby. 3 state parks, amazing food, pubs and breweries, a music hall, cafe and many waterfalls and nature trails and much much more all within a short drive. Saville dam, falls village I can keep going for days. Don’t sleep on this stay. Book the second you can when they reopen in the spring!

This B&B was fantastic. My husband and I were welcomed the second we walked through the door. The inn keeper, Blair, showed us around and walked us through the house and all the amenities. She was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The room was big, bright and clean. The town itself was very quiet, and has very little to do. It was a lovely get away and would most certainly recommend this place!

What a wonderful place the Manor House Inn is! Our hosts Blair and Fell were so gracious and kind and the house is simply stunning. Blair had all sorts of suggestions of what to do in Norfolk and surrounding area. We explored the town (an easy walk from the inn) after an amazing breakfast from Chef Fell. The beautiful library, Yale Summer School of Music and the Ice Box cafe for a well deserved latte were among the highlights. After another amazing breakfast, we had to leave but we will definitely be back to explore more of what Litchfield County has to offer and stay at the restful and relaxing Manor House Inn.

Stayed at the Manor Inn last night, it was a very pleasant experience. The rooms were very clean and stocked up with any amenities you might have forgotten, toothpaste in my case. The staff was very accommodating and packed a to go breakfast for us as were departing very early. Overall highly recommend if you are travelling to Norfolk.

I highly recommend the Manor House, whether for a get-away-stay or a retreat event for your company or business. The details are exquisite, making the stay full of ease setting the stage for connection and reflection. I the service is attentive and responsive yet non-intrusive, and the food is delicious.
