The Eddington House Inn

$ | 21 Main St., Bennington, VT, 05257, USA

In the heart of North Bennington, just around the corner from three covered bridges and Bennington College, this impeccably maintained, 18th-century three-bedroom house is a great value. One room has a four-poster bed, a double shower, and great light. Ask about the midweek dinner package, another excellent deal.

Pros

  • Budget prices for a great B&B
  • "endless desserts" in dining room 24 hours a day
  • Summer guest passes to Lake Paran

Cons

  • Slightly off usual tourist track
  • Only three rooms so it fills up fast
  • No front desk or after-hours reception

South Shire

$$ | 124 Elm St., Bennington, VT, 05201, USA

Originally built for banker Louis A. Graves, this beautiful Victorian is a cozy and intimate B&B that looks like a regular house from the outside. Grab a book from the library and read while relaxing on the couch by the fireplace in the winter, or enjoy the summer breeze on the porch with a nice cup of coffee in the morning. The bedrooms are filled with classic, old-school charm with vintage pieces and colorful wallpaper giving each room unique character.

Pros

  • Set back from crowds
  • Upscale Thai restaurant on-site
  • Plenty of character

Cons

  • Breakfast offered but not included
  • Not within walking distance of much
  • Small-scale property
