We were in Connecticut for a long weekend to attend our grandson's confirmation and have finally found a B&B in the area that we will go back to when visiting family. T&G is a two bedroom B&B in an 1805 farmhouse just outside Granby, CT (about nine miles from Simsbury, CT). Wayne, one of the owners, and Allie, the dog,... More

Kim and Ally (the wonderful dog) greeted us at the door. I was traveling with a friend, as our husbands were biking from the B&B to Bar Harbor, ME. We had arranged to leave a car for a week, which was a wonderful convenience. We found the accommodations to be quite comfortable. The room could easily sleep 3 with additional... More

It's always easy to be a good host when you have great guests like Nancy and her friend. Their husbands the week before had tons of bike touring stories that kept me chuckling while serving them their breakfast. A little correction, the Connecticut Room Suite can sleep up to 4 adults. Two in the queen sized bed and a trundle... More

About 30 minutes from downtown Hartford, 10 minutes from the airport. Nice location. Love the main floor suite. I'm a business traveler and prefer B&B's and this one is wonderful. Nice and quiet and very accommodating.

I was asked to write a response to another guest that had commented on the closeness of the airport. This person read the review but doesn't have internet access to respond. As stated in the review, the airport is 10 minutes away. Another guest that did stay was leery of coming to our B & B because of the closeness... More

This was my first stay at a B&B and I loved it. It was a great location, close to friends in the area. The breakfast was excellent. I'd go back just for the food. The bed was comfortable, and I was able to go to sleep with ease which is not normal for me. The owners were so nice and... More

Second time visiting this neat New England home. Very accommodating and only 15 minutes away from Bradley Field Airport, but you wouldn't know it. Quiet, clean, great breakfast. First time we visited was in the Summer, and this last time was during Christmas Holiday. Exceptional pricing and location of Grandby is full of history.

Charming home with two rooms available. We stayed in the Connecticut Suite, with its own bathroom complete with whirlpool tub. The twin sinks are a godsend for a married couple. The hosts could not have been more helpful. The four poster bed was lovely, and the morning breakfast superb. The freshly cut fruit included pineapple, kiwi, apple, and strawberry, but... More

It's our first time in Connecticut helping my daughter move to University of Connecticut. We had a very pleasant experience with our stay with Wayne and Kim. The room was great. The pancake with locally grown blueberries was delicious.

We stopped at the Truman Gillet House while in Western, Mass visiting family. It's my go-to spot when in the area. Wayne and Kim are delightful hosts. I appreciate all you did to make two of us comfortable. The Granby room is cozy for two people, but still a great experience.

Our first stay at the Truman Gillet house was a matter of convenience - it is just a mile from my 98 year-old grandmother's place and I wanted to be nearby to maximize time between my 6.5 year-old son and his great grandmother. But thanks to this impeccably-kept gem and our hosts Kim and Wayne Cahoon, our second stay -... More

We stayed here two nights and were so impressed. The Connecticut Suite was large, quaint and comfortable. The jetted tub was delightful, the bed comfortable and our hosts were terrific. Wayne and Kim prepared two fabulous breakfasts that were fresh and delicious.
