Roseledge Country Inn and Farm

 
A little bit about Roseledge Country Inn and Farm....
Located in southeastern Connecticut, in the last town of the "Last Green Valley" is where you will find "Roseledge". Roseledge is the homestead of John Meech, an English Colonial with a colorful past! Surrounded by stonewalls, this organic farm includes a three room B&B and farm shop owned and operated by Gail Kuster Beecher. Being only the 5th owner to this property in over 300 years, it is filled with rich history, gracious country charm and hospitality.
