Mixed excellent with one major issue with our late check in. No lights on at cottage or on the property to get to cottage which was pitch dark and no clear direction to cottage except in email, a description. A safety concern, as well as several minutes of anxiety for all 4 party members. I finally found the cottage, without help or answer to my phone message to the emergency number provided, using the light on my cell phone. Parking was also unclear on arrival with a coned off area of sunken asphalt that my husband stepped in due to the poor lighting. Separately from this, delightful staff, very easy to work with on all details.

Inn is on the National Historic Landmark list. Main house has wonderful character and charm. We had a room on the third floor with a small gas stove. They also have a restaurant and the food was outstanding. We expect to come back many times. Staff was friendly.

This was a stay "back in time". Most importantly, it was clean and quiet. Our grandparents had homes like our room and we are now grandparents, so it was awhile ago. So, it was very nostalgic for us, but we felt unsafe in the bathroom. The shower curtains were in the bottom of the tub and would have been easy to trip up on. There was only one outlet for us to re-charge our electronics on. The lighting was very poor. We somewhat enjoyed our stay because of the nostalgic factor, but really missed the conveniences of today.

Loved the location and area. Disappointed in responsiveness of staff, very disappointed in the bed/ horrible mattress (did not rest well) and limited ceiling height in the 3rd floor converted artic—in the Cherry room. Surprised by squeaky floors, road noise and surprised by noise level from nearby rooms. Our first stay there and we aren’t inclined to go back again.

The Mast Farm Inn makes you fell like you’re home from the moment you arrive. We arrived at night and the house was adorned with beautiful lights and out late check-in was made simple with Help from Jessie. Our room, The Elizabeth Gray Vining room was perfect. The complimentary two course breakfast was delicious. Exploring the farm was also great. There is so much history in the home and on the property. The attention to detail and the friendliness of the staff made it hard to leave. I will definitely be returning. Definitely would recommend if you want a relaxing weekend getaway or a romantic weekend with that special person.
