Guest refrigerator and complimentary softdrinks are also always available. Massage therapy can be arranged in your room.
Located in the heart of the historic district, on a pretty gas-lit main street, we are a
short walk to the water, quaint shops, restaurants, cafes, coffeehouses with entertainment, churches, spas, town green activities, ice skating pond, scenic North Cove historic district, and Saybrook Point Park at the mouth of the Connecticut River. We are next door to an old-fashioned ice-cream parlor (since 1896), coffeehouse/cafe, and art gallery; and across the street from the General William Hart House Museum and a pillared white church. We are 1 mile from beaches, lighthouses, waterfront dining, waterfront park, golf & minigolf. We are also part of a historic walking tour and scenic coastal bicycle loop. Great Kayak launch 1/2mile away.
Things To do:
Bordered on 2 sides by the CT River & Long Island Sound, Old Saybrook embodies the spirit of a charming, small New England town with a rich seafaring tradition. We are centrally located 100 miles from New York City and Boston (midway between). 1 hr from Hartford, CT and Providence, RI airports. There are two public boat launches; 1 is 1/2 mile from B&B and affords great canoe/kayak routes/scenery from the cove to the river to the sound
We are just 1 mile to beaches, lighthouses, an historic walking park, 9 hole waterfront golf course, mini golf, and waterfront dining. Beach passes, maps, and advice provided! From the B&B take a scenic stroll along the water past the historic homes and scenic views of North and South Cove, Saybrook Point, and Fenwick. Watch the sun set over the ocean, or take a walk at Fort Saybrook Monument Park or out to one of Old Saybooks lighthouses.
