Rogers and Brown House Bed & Breakfast

The innkeepers, Frank and Joanne are the perfect hosts. Welcoming, kind and always putting their guests first. The inn is meticulously maintained both inside and out. The grounds are lovely with many different types of flowers, trees and bushes. Joanne is an artist. She had painted a mural of the Ipswich area on the walls, perfect artistic accent to the other furniture in the room. The Queen Size bed was very comfortable, like new, plenty of linens. Frank prepared breakfast every morning, fresh seasonal fruit every day, eggs, blueberry pancakes, French toast, pastries and lots of great coffee. The location is perfect to downtown Ipswich, Glochester, Rockport and Essex and all the local shops, beaches and harbors. The Hellenic Center is just a few hundred yards down the road. It was very convenient since we were visiting to attend our niece’s wedding. My husband and I enjoyed every moment of our stay. I would not hesitate to stay with Frank and Joanne on our next visit to the area and recommend the in to stay, true New England Hospitality. 🙂

Fantastic place to stay. Clean, friendly, close to everything in Ipswich. Plenty of room.

Historic Charm. Stayed for a long weekend. Our room was exceptionally clean. The location is convenient to area attractions. The innkeeper was helpful and made us feel very welcome.

My sister and I spent five nights here and loved it. Frank and Johanne are intelligent, delightful, interesting and accomodating hosts. The other guests we met at our breakfasts were unfailingly the same. These comfortable quarters and wonderful companions provided a sanity-saving counterpoint to the unpleasant task we had each day of cleaning and organizing our disabled brother's apartment and life. No standard motel could have done this--we actually tried this on our last visit. The breakfasts are healthful and delicious. They accommodated my gluten- and milk-free diet in grand style. The only pseudo-complaint I can think of is that I prefer a well-lit environment...brighter than most people like. But that would be inconsistent with the perfect early-American motif of the house and furnishings. There IS very good lighting in the bathroom, however, which most of us find important, I think. We will likely be in Ipswich again to provide ongoing support and will definitely stay here.
