ROMANCE, RELAXATION AND HISTORY combine in the foothills of the Monadnock to make an unforgettable get away! The Hancock Inn is the State’s oldest original Inn still in operation, and one of the oldest in New England. When it began offering accommodations and meals to travelers in 1789, George Washington was in the first year of his presidency and the Revolutionary War had ended just six years before.
Experience the best of a centuries old tradition of hospitality, comfort, delicious food and romance at this classic New Hampshire Inn. Feel like you have stepped back in time to 18th century New England but, with all the modern conveniences of today. Fireplaces, antiques and hand painted murals are backdrops to this most romantic New Hampshire setting. The Hancock Inn is the only New Hampshire inn that has been in continuous operation since 1789. It remains true to its origin, filled with colonial style furniture, antiques from New England and paintings and curios "of the period".
The Hancock Inn is the oldest New Hampshire inn and has been in continuous operation since 1789. It remains true to its origin as it is filled with colonial style furniture, many antiques from New England and paintings and curios "of the period". The Inn was built by Noah Wheeler shortly after the town was incorporated. It was the first in the area to offer both accommodations along with food and beverages. The Inn became a center of social life after it was purchased by David Patten in 1830. Patten was a state senator and served on the governor's council. His close friend, Franklin Pierce (then a US Senator) was a frequent guest at the Inn. Pierce went on to become the only President of the United States to hail from New Hampshire!
Today guests can relax and enjoy the historic ambiance with modern amenities, including central air, private bathrooms - some with whirlpool tubs and one with a two person Jacuzzi. In the winter, you will find guests relaxing in the Tavern and Dining Room in front of the large wood burning fireplaces - while in the summer most folks kick back on the front porch in one of the old fashioned wooden rocking chairs.
