Westbrook Inn Bed & Breakfast December Newsletter 2025

Make your stay even more memorable

From Love Stories to Local Events... 

Here's What's Happening This Season

Here at Westbrook Inn, we've been leaning into that holiday feeling: twinkling lights on the porch, trees adorned with bows, and the scent of fresh pancakes drifting through the house.



It's a beautiful time to visit, wander, and soak in the season. Local towns are buzzing with festive events, craft markets, tree lightings, and coastal celebrations that make this stretch of Connecticut feel especially inviting. Whether you're planning a winter escape or looking for something meaningful to gift, a Westbrook Inn gift card is the perfect way to share the shoreline magic with someone you love.

We're also delighted to welcome you to our Holiday Tea, a cozy afternoon filled with warm cups, homemade treats, and the kind of slow, sweet moments that make December feel special.

And because the holidays always taste better with something homemade, we're sharing a guest-favorite pancake recipe straight from our kitchen — perfect for a quiet winter morning at home.

Here's to a season of comfort, connection, and coastal holiday charm. We're so grateful to be part of your traditions, near or far.

There's something about winter at The Westbrook Inn — the soft light, the quiet mornings, the way the Inn feels it is your private sanctuary — that makes every moment feel a little more magical.


If you're dreaming up the perfect place to ask the question, our cozy corners, candlelit rooms, and peaceful waterfront make for a breathtaking backdrop.


Love feels right at home here.

Our Baked Berry Pancake — the cozy, sheet-pan miracle from the Westbrook Inn kitchen.

Mornings at the inn have their own gentle rhythm...

The sun slips through the dining room windows, coffee brews in the corner, and sleepy footsteps drift down the stairs. And while the house slowly wakes up, there's one recipe that quietly saves the day: our Baked Pancake with Fresh Berries.

Guests swear we've been flipping pancakes for an hour — but the truth?

We pour one big batch into a pan, scatter berries on top, and let the oven work its magic. That frees us up to top off coffees, chat about local happenings, and send you off into your shoreline adventures.

It's simple, cozy, and pure breakfast happiness.
