BRI is a warm and welcoming historic inn between the New England villages of Norfolk and Canaan. It's easily accessible (right on Greenwoods Rd/Route 44) but still quiet. The guest rooms and common areas find the right balance between beauty and comfort--lovely furnishings, but it doesn't feel like a museum. The included breakfast--served in the sun-washed (and fully enclosed/winterized) porch area is memorable, with local maple syrup and eggs that tasted like they had come from one of the nearby farms. I especially recommend it for a stay during the holidays. The lovely decorations, lights, and poinsettias gave the inn a magical quality from a bygone era.
