Excellent hotel,spotless everywhere, staff very friendly and very helpful, will even book tickets for you for example to the Cog Railway at Mount Washington which is fantastic, wrap up warm it was freezing at the top. Breakfast was cereals, muffins, bagels, yohurts, fruit etc., fresh and plentiful. No where to eat out on site but you have kitchen area if you want to cook for yourselves or very good restaurants about 3/4 miles away but we chose to have a take away delivered to the hotel on 2...

One of the best Bed and Breakfasts we have stayed in over the years. Hosts Nick and Amy made us very welcome and we would recommend to anyone thinking of booking. Beautiful house and immaculate. Restaurants within walking distance in this lovely town. Pity we could not have stayed longer.

Mark and Lyn were somewhat surprised to find we had arrived in Meredith by bus! Not to be recommended. Taxied up to their charming hotel. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, homemade granola, yoghurt and raspberry couli, followed by poached pears and Mark's soda bread. Lyn took us down to the lake for a trip and collected us in the afternoon. They could not have been kinder or more concerned that we enjoyed our stay. We loved it.

These cabins are amazing. Nothing extravagant but Everything you need for a stay in the woods. As the cabins are remote check in, the cabin number and access code are normally text 30 mins before check in. However i was worried as i only had a data SIM card and no US number. I messaged a couple of days before to ask for them to be emailed to me in stead. The communication was excellent. We did have to message again at 4 to get the the details. The cabin itself was clearly well used but really...

A fantastic family owned and run Inn with a brilliant welcome. These people really care and are passionate about the guest experience. A beautiful historic property with a lovely warm ambience. Comfortable rooms, spotlessly clean and in the perfect spot for exploring the squam lake region and the northern NH scenic trails.
A lot of sustainable practice and locally sourced ingredients adds to the experience.

I don't usually review, but the Ballard was such a lovely experience! It's a beautiful, historic inn, and our room was comfortable, nicely furnished, and spotless. There are a couple of comfortable sitting rooms for the guests to use, and the view across the trees down to a lake from the veranda was lovely. Breakfast was delicious, including a fresh home-baked sweet loaf every day, and there were the cookies every afternoon. Brian and Lynn could not have been more friendly, welcoming and...
