Heart of the Village Inn, Shelburne, Vermont

'Although choices abound in the Burlington area, an excellent nearby alternative is Heart of the Village Inn. ... This welcoming Victorian B & B, with nine spacious rooms, several in the carriage house out back, is restored with fine attention to detail and is an easy walk from the town's restaurants.' -Judith Yarnall, The New York Times.
