Weathervane Inn, Egremont, Massachusetts
Egremont Massachusetts Bed and Breakfast near Norman Rockwell Museum
Steeped in history and encircled by reminders of early New England -- A 1785 once-farmhouse and 1835 Greek Revival addition, with its wide floorboards and beehive bake oven, in the tiny pre-revolutionary village of South Egremont.
The Weathervane Inn began as a farmhouse in 1785 with the original fireplace serving for both heating and cooking as it boasts a beehive bake oven, rarely seen today, but a necessity in bygone days. As with many New England homes, there have been many additions to the farmhouse. In 1835 the Greek revival high-ceilinged addition was completed. Its wide board floors and spectacular mouldings are unique reminders of the skill of long-ago craftsmen.
The Inn has been included in the National Register of Historic Places.
