"A wonderful stay for a local couple looking to get away from it all without going away. Back again definitely - 'rehearsal dinner'"
"Great hosts with great recommendations for places to eat, paths to hike, and routes to bike. I've never seen my husband display such a hearty appetite as at your fantastic meals. The house is so cozy - enjoyed morning coffee in the sunporch and evening reading in the library. Couldn't have asked for a better honeymoon."
"What a fabulous house you have here! You are terrific hosts and were very accommodating of our various needs. Our reunion was wonderful due in part to your hospitality."
"Thanks for a wonderful week! We had a great time and enjoyed you both very much. Keep up the good work - we'll see you in the fall!"
"Thank you so much for making our first B&B experience one that we will treasure. You are great hosts, and the food was delicious."

General Information: Welcome to the Churchill House Inn ... recently named Brandon's first and only environmentally friendly "Green Hotel". Our country bed and breakfast retreat invites you to the heart of Vermont ... our guests visit us for romantic getaways, family reunions and our great location just across a babbling mountain stream from the Green Mountain National Forest and its award-winning trail system.
The current innkeepers, Seth and Olya Hopkins have installed modern heat in all guestrooms for the first time, replacing the roof, and buying new beds for several rooms. At the same time, they respect the great history of the place and of New England country innkeeping. Many vegetables used in the kitchen are grown in the new organic garden which Olya planted; Seth bakes breads and desserts from scratch using family recipes. They look forward to welcoming you to this authentic country inn with its long tradition of gracious hospitality.
