Gretchen and Keith are excellent hosts. We felt welcome even before we walked through the door of their lovely home. Very historic home, restored beautifully. Our room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Keith was a former chef and his breakfast was amazing! Keith knows the area very well and gave us suggestions for 2 outstanding hikes that would fit into our short stay. By checkout, we felt like we were saying goodbye to old friends. Plan to return to the area in the future and stay at Perkins House again.

Wish we had more time to stay and enjoy the B&B and explore the town of Cornish

Hello Keith, hello Gretchen, thank you very much for the wonderful time as a guest in your stylishly furnished house. Thank you so much Keith for the delicious, freshly prepared and incredibly rich breakfast every morning. Thank you for all your patience in explaining and describing our questions regarding our day trips in the surrounding area and further afield. Steffi and Peter

Everything was amazing the hosts went above and beyond. Breakfast was fantastic - something different every morning. The rooms were huge and the beds very very comfortable. The whole house was spotless clean with plenty of towels and linens for our stay.

I didn't mind the shared bathroom but it is always nice to have a bathroom to yourself. BUT - this was not a drawback to our stay.

The location of the Perkins House is perfect for exploring both the White Mountains to the west and the coast of Maine to the east- both are about an hour away. We had easy access to unlimited amazing hiking trails as well as making a quick trip to the coast. Our room was super comfortable, and Keith is a kind and helpful host. Breakfast was great and the house is lovely.

We were there during the week and found that many stores and restaurants are closed on Monday and/or Tuesdays. Do your research ahead of time to avoid frustration.

Lovely home with great curb appeal. Hosts were wonderful, including Dolce, the pomeranian! The home is amazing and decorated beautifully. Rooms were well sized and so comfortable. The bath was very nice as well. Breakfast was delicious herbed sausage biscuits and honeydew with lots of juice, coffee and teas available. Would stay here again and again if able!

Loved it all

Extremely welcoming place that has a very unique look and feel. You can tell a lot of thought has been put into making guests feel at home! Glad we went there on a whim.

Bed was a little too soft imo.

We enjoyed our stay with Keith & Gretchen in Cornish. For us it was a great one-night stopover in a Halloween themed historic house and we were made very welcome. Our room was a good size and the home cooked breakfast was delicious

So much to see. Beautifuly decorated. So much history. And Keith was an exceptional host.

We visited the gardens but the mosquitos chased us away. No problem, went up and sat on the porch. Total relaxation ❤️
