Tucker Hill Inn is a gracious New England Colonial home situated on lovely grounds and lightly shaded by ancient oaks and maples. It is a setting suggesting rural life, yet its location in Middlebury, Connecticut is convenient to downtown business and shopping.

Originally opened as a Tea Room in 1923, the bed and breakfast inn was a busy trolley stop on the line from Waterbury. Some time later it became Lift the Latch Inn and operated as a restaurant and catering business for 40 years. The inn has developed a reputation as a favorite place for brides, with nearly a thousand weddings having taken place here.

All lodging accommodations are spacious, inviting, bright, and cheerful, featuring two rooms with private bath and two rooms that share a bath. Guests are free to join their hosts downstairs in the comfortable living room as well as enjoy any of the Inn's extensive library of books, video movies and compact discs. A full, hearty breakfast is served in the formal dining room or in summer, outside on the pleasant patio. For lunch and dinner, you can peruse the many menus collected from fine restaurants nearby.

Nestled in a quaint, rural setting, let Tucker Hill Inn show you how New Englanders welcome treasured guests.
