“Innkeepers Jim & Linda Palmer keep the heirloom gardens and five guest rooms looking gorgeous. The house couldn't have looked any better in 1898 than it does now.”

- by far the best B&B we have ever seen -

"We have traveled extensively and stayed in hotels around the world and Bed and Breakfasts all over the United States. Never have we seen a more perfect operation than The Lion and the Rose. The rooms are exquisite and the attention to detail is perfect. You have, by far, the best B&B we have ever seen and our high recommendations to others will be extremely enthusiastic! Thanks for a wonderful weekend."

- we will be back -

"It was that 'stop the world, we want to get off' feeling that led us to the Lion and the Rose... and that is just what it felt like - time stood still, we had a chance to catch our breath, and remember who we are. It is so apparent how much you love this place. Thank you! And we will be back."

- D.T.

- I'll tell all my friends! -

“You are very gracious hosts, the breakfasts and afternoon treats were scrumptious, our room was both elegant & cozy, and all in all our stay could not have been more delightful. I’ll tell all my friends!”
