Wedding on the beach, Westbrook, CT

"After flying 14 hours from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and driving 5 hours from JFK airport in pouring rain this place was a haven. The attention to detail, soft fluffy towels for my bath, natural soaps, Perrier Water, lots of white linen was all so soothing. I slept like a baby....

I have been in the States 6 times in the last 2 months...and this ideal place has been the best B&B for hospitality and charm."
