In the center
of Lisbon, Connecticut, sets a 200 year old picturesque
house, bounded by native cedars and a quaint New
England stone wall on the east. The house, which
was built by Revolutionary War veteran Stephen
Branch around 1790, is a bed and breakfast operated
by innkeepers Ethel and Tom Bosse.
The inn, which has five working fireplaces, has
two guest rooms available. The Hannah Room is
tastefully decorated with a queen-size rice bed
with full canopy, and has a private bath, bathrobes,
TV, VCR, seasonal air conditioning, and a fireplace
(This original working fireplace is equipped with a
realistic electric firelog).
The Sabina Room is a beautifully stenciled room
having a four poster queen-sized rice bed, private
bath, bathrobes, TV, VCR, and seasonal air conditioning.
Two common rooms are available to guests. Adjacent
to the upstairs bedrooms is the Susan Sitting
and Reading Room and features a pristene "Good
Morning Staircase", while on the lower level
is the Lovisa Room, which has its own fireplace,
and is tastefully decorated with antiques, reproductions
and adaptions. Both rooms together, with the outside
brick patio, are ideal places to relax and enjoy
the surroundings.
A full breakfast is served at 9AM in the Keeping
Room with its large working fireplace , but a
continental breakfast is available for those keeping
an early schedule.
Nearby attractions are numerous. We're a few short
miles from Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun Casinos. Other
Southeast Connecticut attractions are Mystic Seaport,
Mystic Aquarium, The Nautilus Museum, The Connecticut
Wine Trail, The John Bishop House Museum, Fort
Trumbull, The Essex Steam Train, The U.S. Coast
Guard Academy Museum, and for the golfers, neighboring
Griswold offers the 18 hole River Ridge Golf Course.
In addition, our location offers easy access to
the "Quiet Corner".
