Publisher's Note
Bed & breakfasts are small, owner-operated businesses. Typically, they include three to fifteen guestrooms. The owner lives on the premises and offers breakfast as well as a room. Small hotels and inns may have more than fifteen rooms and often have a restaurant that offers dinner as well as breakfast. The small size of these establishments allows guests to receive generous hospitality and personal attention. In order to be recognized for inclusion in the National Trust's Guide, an establishment must be at least 50 years old and have retained the integrity of its original architecture and craftsmanship.
