    huge room
    historic charm
    cramped parking

    Had a great time at South Shire! The huge room felt really comfortable. The historic charm was lovely. A bit cramped for parking, but Joe made us feel right at home. Can't wait to come back!

    poor lighting
    ripped shades

    the room was barely adequate, with faint lighting making it impossible to see my fabulous self. also, several shades were ripped—how quaint, right? I expected a little attention for all my troubles, but alas, no extra pillows or special treat to pamper me. what a shame!

    scrumptious breakfast
    historical vibe
    local gems
    missing amenities
    uncomfortable bed

    The stay at South Shire was a culinary delight! I reveled in the scrumptious breakfast served promptly, and the historical vibe of the inn was enchanting. Plus, being just a stone's throw from local gems like Cilantro for tasty meals was a real treat.

    On the flip side, the absence of TV and WIFI was a bummer, particularly with memory foam beds that didn’t cater to my tall frame. That said, the charming decor still gave the room a 'look but don’t touch' vibe, keeping the spirits high.

    historic charm
    poor check-in
    dark interior

    beautiful building, large spacious rooms, close to town

    Check-in process lacking clarity. finding key on reception desk felt impersonal!!! The dark interior throughout the building made it feel somewhat gloomy. Cleaning crew interrupting at 9 AM certainly needs reevaluation!!!

    Charming Stay with Delightful Breakfasts

    Had a wonderful stay with delicious gourmet breakfasts each morning that felt special and unique. The antique furnishings added to the cozy ambiance. Perfect location for exploring nearby restaurants and attractions. Pro tip, enjoy the coffee and liqueur available 24/7 in the common area for a relaxing evening.

    cozy room
    bathroom accessibility issues

    I thoroughly enjoyed the location, as it was only a 5-minute walk to shops and restaurants, making it very convenient for exploring. The room I stayed in was cozy, clean, and very comfortable, providing a relaxing atmosphere. The amenities, especially the jet tub, were fantastic and added to the overall enjoyment of my stay.

    Unfortunately, the bathroom facilities in my suite had several issues that made accessibility challenging, especially for anyone with mobility issues.

    architectural charm

    Just an optimal selection for a weekend jaunt in Bennington with fantastic value for money. The architectural charm of the building added a unique touch to our stay. Don't forget to check out the local shops just a short walk away.
