Fifty acres of woodlands, meadows and marshes are surrounded by 2,000 more acres of green space at this Dane County bed and breakfast. The Speckled Hen Inn B&B offers easygoing elegance and country charm in Madison, Wisconsin. Gather in one of the two large lounge areas, or watch a movie in the home theater with a complimentary beverage. Read in the enclosed gazebo, on a porch or balcony. Guest bedrooms and suites are spacious, romantic retreats, some with a fireplace. Several feature whirlpool tubs and one room boasts a clawfoot tub. Linger in the sunny breakfast room or candlelit dining room over a multi-course breakfast made with Wisconsin cheese, produce and locally roasted coffee beans.

We were only able to stay 2 nights, but had a wonderful time. The Innkeepers are very friendly and helpful. The Inn was very clean and they made things easy for their guests. Loved the ever fresh coffee! Only negative was the 2 person spa tub had no handles to help with getting out, and the bottom was very slippery.

If you are looking for a relaxing experience that is entirely devoid of the typical Victorian nonsense, this is the ideal place. We will be coming back as often as possible (which, for us, is really saying something). And Happy (the house golden doodle) is a wonderful dog!

Within blocks of shopping and sight-seeing in Madison but the setting was in the country. Everything that helped make our time away special was provided; from the inviting rooms to the delicious breakfasts. Pat and Bob were fantastic hosts with a genuine gift of hospitality. We look forward to a return visit!
