The Inn is the former mansion home of State Governor
Owen Brewster who was portrayed by Alan Alda in the award
winning movie "The Aviator" that starred
Leonardo DiCaprio as Howard Hughes. In Spring 2008 the
Brewster Inn will be seen on TV right across the nation on
HGTV "If Walls Could Talk." |
Featuring classic 1930's elegance in a small town setting,
the Brewster Inn offers a warm, relaxing and friendly
atmosphere. Built in the 1930's Brewster by noted architect
John Calvin Stevens, this Historic Register mansion features
spacious common rooms and ten beautifully decorated,
comfortable guest rooms and suites which range from expansive
to cozy with each offering a distinct personality. Some
accommodations feature fireplaces, original wood panelling,
window seats and original tile bathrooms. Other rooms offer a
lovely view of the gardens or a whirlpool bath for two. One
handicapped accessible room is also available. All rooms have
private baths, cable TV and air conditioning (in season).
In warm weather, relax on covered porches and enjoy over an
acre of rose and perennial gardens complemented by an
ornamental pond. In the winter, curl up in the living room
window seat and watch the snow fall, or sit by the fire and
indulge in novels and hot chocolate.
Whether you are looking for a beautiful vacation filled with
outdoor activities, a romantic getaway, quiet weekend of
relaxation, wedding, winter sports, craft group, or corporate
retreat location, Mark and Judith would love to look after you
and treat you to some wonderful English hospitality.
