Relax in the upstairs sitting-hall furnished with wicker chairs for reading. We can provide a table just right for puzzles, games and cards.
The refrigerator in the sitting hall is stocked with cold beverages for your enjoyment. Feel free to partake of the colas and spring water. There is a basket of snacks for your late-night munching. There is also a coffee-maker and an electric kettle available for preparing hot beverages.
A telephone is available for guest use. It is located atop the wardrobe in the sitting hall. Local calls are free and you may place long-distance calls with your card. The phone is a cordless one, so you may carry it to your room for privacy – just remember to return it to keep the battery charged.

A full breakfast is served in the dining room, where the large windows make even the grayest mornings cheerful. Breakfast can be served to meet your schedule - as early as six o'clock (yawn) or as late as ten a.m. Let us know your preferred time. Also let us know if you have any special dietary needs or food dislikes, so we can make your stay more enjoyable. |

Busy guests may request lighter fare served from the sideboard. Summer-time week-enders may opt for breakfast on the porch. |

We frequently offer dessert around 8:30 in the evening. Look on the sideboard in the downstairs hall for cookies, sherbet, cake or whatever might have been baked that day.
If you have an interest in local dining, we keep menus from most of the nearby restaurants at the registration desk downstairs. Please ask for them and for directions.
Barklin House is home to our cat, DB. If you do not enjoy the company of cats, please tell us and we will make every effort to keep her out of your rooms.
The common areas provided for our guests include
the front porch with its rockers and swing. We also provide a spacious back-yard deck, chaise and lawn chairs for your leisure hours. The rear garden has been certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a Backyard Habitat and is graced with old-fashioned perennials and shrubs.
