New Hampton Vacations from $454

The Ballard House Inn is a 7 bedroom bed and breakfast inn in Meredith that my husband and I stayed at over this past weekend. We truly enjoyed our stay there, would return in a heartbeat and highly recommend it. The inn itself is absolutely charming, very well kept, clean and tastefully furnished and decorated. There is a fairly large dining room where complementary breakfast is served as well as two additional rooms to relax in. Throughout the inn snacks are left for the guests as well as complementary water, soda, coffee, beer and wine. The bedroom we had was good sized, the bed was very comfortable and the fireplace was a really nice touch. Bedrooms are on the second and third floors. The bathroom was also a good size and had everything we needed. The owner was wonderful, ensuring that we had everything we needed. They go above and beyond for their guests. It was such a positive experience and far superior to a hotel room. The location was convenient and easy to find. 5 stars isn’t enough to convey how highly we recommend the Ballard House Inn!

This is a secret Hidaway. Don't judge a book by its cover. Very cozy, roomy cottage. We were a family of 4 and there was more than enough room. Communication was amazing and is what made our stay easy! Perfect distance to Mount Sunapee.

I loved everything about this place. I only wish they had softer mattresses, but I feel like that’s the case with all hotels/ b&b’s. Would recommend this place to anyone!

This was a very poor experience. We had no water for shower, and no water in kitchen sink. We checked in late at night, got up to take showers, and weren't able to do so because there was no water. We'd rented the cabin to go to a wedding and weekend events. Checked out an hour before checkout time to get to the event--unshowered-- and called the host, who didn't pick up. Left a message reporting the problem, and then we were told that we should have spoke to him to have him fix the problem before we checked out. I asked if he thought we should miss the event to wait for him to call back re: the water? Host Offered a $50 rebate and said it wan't his problem that our timeframe didn't work with the time of when we let him know, then the host went on to say he didn't have to offer a refund and got very personal about what should be a professional, business transaction. Host that I was "absolutely disrespectful."..he's "at a loss with how humanity has become and not sure how some people sleep at night. Please never come back to our establishment. ..You're not the kind of customer we want to welcome back." I have NEVER written a negative review of a rental, and have a positive track record for giving positive, gracious reviews. I do not recommend this place to fellow travelers.
