Magnificent Romantic Getaway!

Brampton Bed & Breakfast Inn

This Inn far exceeded my expectations! Simply put, it is magnificent - beautiful beyond belief! The grounds are immaculate and our stay in late October provided an even more splendid scenery with the fall-colored leaves. Danielle greeted us with a warm welcome and chocolate cake! :) She walked us to our room (Sunset in Garden Cottage) which was even more beautiful in person... the fire-place was already prepared and the decor of the room was warm, inviting and romantic. The parlor in the big house was open 24/7 and fully stocked with yummy treats and beverages/wine/sherry (all complimentary). Our breakfast was served in bed every morning of our stay and was delicious! The ambiance and peaceful tranquility of the Brampton Inn (nestled right in beautifully quaint Chestertown) is what makes this place so special. I would highly recommend this inn to any couple looking for a peaceful, relaxing, and intimate getaway.

Spectacular Romantic Getaway

Brampton Bed & Breakfast Inn

Our stay at the Brampton was nothing short of magical. This Bed and Breakfast caters to privacy, indulgence and relaxation like few other places I have stayed. Our rooms' amenities were tastefully selected and ultra functional. A few of my favorites include the heated towel bar, the body jet/steam shower, and discrete flat screen tv's to watch the Inn's extensive DVD collection on. A la carte breakfast was delicious, and perfect for my picky eating habits. Sitting in the whirl pool with a wood burning fireplace crackling in the background, sipping champagne and snacking on homemade (complimentary) cookies is definitely one of my life's top ten most enjoyable experiences.
