[quote=Anonymous]I'm a huge B&B fan.  We typically go to places that we can get to within a 3 hour drive - 4 max.  Here is my take on the places we've gone and enjoyed:

L'Auberge Provenciale - Loved their breakfast.  Loved the rooms and amenities.  Only problem is for 4-5 days I don't think its the best place as I don't recall it being a place you could really walk around much.  It's off a main road.  Two nights maybe but just not the best location to unwind at.

Easton, MD - one of my all time favorite places to go. The Bartlett Pear Inn is a fantastic B&B and has a great restaurant.  Breakfast is included.   They have a lovely outside eating area as well where you can read and relax.  Plus Easton has tons of cute shops to stroll around and lots of restaurants.  Oxford is maybe 20 minutes away and has a lovely small beach that is just part of the town so again - another great place you can get to easily from Easton, on your own and walk around, sit, decompress.  St. Micheals is another town close by that you can get to easily, stroll around, eat, walk etc.  I'd suggest having lunch or tea at the Inn at Perry Cabin while you are there.  You can stroll the grounds, sit there and spend the afternoon there in peace even if you are not staying there if you go there for lunch.

The Homestead - nice but too far and wouldn't recommend it on your own.  I have a friend who went to the Omni Bedford and didn't think it compared to the Homestead.

Hillbrook Inn in Charlestown - This could be a good possibility if you get one of their suites - preferably the winter suite.  They have a really nice spa as well.  Their restaurant is good.  You can stroll the grounds and sit out and relax.  Harpers Ferry is only 20 minutes away and is just lovely to spend the day strolling and immersing yourself in civil war history.  The Casino isn't all that but they have a really good Chinese Restaurant there.

We've been to maybe another 3-4 B&Bs but none stand out based on location .  One of our all time favorites is in PA - Willkes Barre actually.  It's called Bischwind B&B.  Problem is there really isn't that much else to do in the area but the inn keeper  Billi is just a doll, the grounds are lovely, there is a great large lake near by that you can take daily strolls too etc. [/quote]
