Circa 1882. This Second Empire luxury inn has views of five mountain ranges. Three parlors, all with cozy fireplaces, are favorite gathering spots. Afternoon tea is served here. The inn's lush grounds offer many opportunities for recreation or relaxing, and guests often enjoy special events here, such as the Fields of Lupine Festival. The Cannon Mountain Ski Area and Franconia Notch State Park are nearby, and there is 30 kilometers of cross-country ski trails at the inn. Be sure to inquire about golf and ski packages. In the fall, a Thanksgiving package allows guests to help decorate the inn for the holidays as well as enjoy Thanksgiving dinner together. NH Magazine just named Sunset Hill House -- A Grand Inn the "Very Best in NH for a Spectacular Meal."

Innkeeper Note

When we (innkeepers Lon and Nancy Henderson) discovered the inn in 1999, we immediately saw in it the same things that have appealed to somewhere between 1-2,000,000 previous visitors to Sunset Hill House—location, location, location. Combined with elegant service, fine food, and historical lodging, it proved an irresistible combination. We purchased this beautiful New Hampshire inn in March 2000. As much as we are Sunset Hill House’s fortunate innkeepers, we also see ourselves as the curators of this magnificent tangible piece of New England’s heritage. It is our pleasure to welcome you to the grandeur of Sunset Hill House while letting you share in the intimacy and charm of a fine country inn. It has been 9 years and we still love it. We have added 2 more guest rooms, hosted many weddings, anniversaries and reunions. The Sunset Hill House has become home to us as well as our many returning guest.
