This place is just cool. Like it’s just great in every aspect. Bed, room, lobby, restaurant, bar, area - it’s perfect. Oh, and if you get room 4, you’ll know where all the talk about the place being haunted comes from…seriously.

Staying at The Old Talbott Tavern is a special treat. The building is very historic, especially the dining room in the 1799 part of the building with the ancient timbers and two gorgeous stone fire places. We split an order of the beef stew. The rooms are very nice, big, and quite comfortable. We stayed in a room in the newer section (only about 100 years old) with windows looking out on the main street and town square. In addition to the nice restaurant, they have the obligatory gift shop and a great old bar with live music and, you guessed it, lots of whiskey.
