Love this B & B!
When I come to Old Saybrook (for events at The Kate), this is where I make my home. I love everything about it, the rooms, the people who own/work here, the breakfasts, the wonderful welcome feeling I have here. I'm also delighted with the Moroccan food (and ice cream!) right next door!
