My wife and I stayed at the Loft because we wanted a unique and interesting rural location from which to explore a bit of Connecticut and western Massachusetts. It was perfect. Designed from the start as a guest lodging it was spacious, well lighted, comfortable, and quiet. It is next door to the winery/event venue with which it is connected, but is oriented for sight and sound away from that setting. From inside The Loft you would not know a party was going on, even with a crowd having fun. Really, we felt at home. If I were to issue a caveat it would be that the beds would be a challenge to climb into for a person of less than average height. They are lovely, but quite tall. Perhaps there is a stepstool, but we didn't look.
