Built in 1832 as the homestead of the Safford family, the Inn of the Tartan Fox Bed & Breakfast in Swanzey, New Hampshire opened in 1999. The house is reminiscent of a country manor house and is perfect for romantic getaways, and honeymoons with it’s mahogany paneling, cobblestone fireplace, warm and sunny window seat and a spacious front porch. Each of the four guest rooms have a private bath with heated marble floors, two have a fireplace, all have TVs and air-conditioning and are decorated in a different Scottish tartan.
A full breakfast featuring the “best scones ever”, fresh fruits and scrumptious entrees is served each morning and features local ingredients whenever possible. The eggs couldn’t be fresher as we gather them each day from our own chickens. Special diets can be accommodated with advance notice, gluten free baking is a specialty. For business travelers, wireless internet connection is available and early breakfast can be provided. We are only 3 miles from the many businesses in downtown Keene. Our convenient location makes the inn a perfect base from which to explore Vermont and Massachusetts as well as New Hampshire. Located nearby are 3 colleges, several covered bridges, great hiking and biking trails, antique stores and theater and art galleries. |
