Westbrook Inn Bed & Breakfast January Newsletter 2025

Make your stay even more memorable

So Much to Celebrate!!

Snowflakes dance outside the windows as January settles in, inviting a moment of renewal and reflection. A quieter rhythm takes hold, one that makes space for intention, warmth, and what comes next.


We have always shared so much of our lives with our guests. Most of you know us as a married couple, but this January, after 13 years together, we are making it official!



We are joining with family and friends on not one, but two marriage celebrations - one here in CT and a second in one our our favorite locations, the BVI's. We are thrilled for this new chapter in our lives.


 So we can fully celebrate The Westbrook Inn will be closed from January 9 through January 29 for guest visits. Our Amazing Team will still be working refreshing the Inn and managing calls. Office hours will be limited but we will return all calls within 24 hours. 


For years, the Inn has been a backdrop for love stories. Proposals, elopements, and intimate weddings have filled these rooms with meaning. This winter, that tradition continues with our personal vow exchange.


Doors reopen on January 29, ready for the season ahead. Valentine's Day is just around the corner. Newly engaged couples are invited to imagine a vow exchange here. Those planning to pop the question can explore the proposal experiences shared below.


The year is just beginning, and love is very much in the air.


Looking forward to seeing you at the Inn soon,


Meri & Marcus

Plan Your Westbrook Inn Wedding

Some places simply feel right.


A quiet river. A dock at golden hour. A garden that asks for nothing more than good company and a promise spoken out loud. The Westbrook Inn has long been a setting for intimate love stories, from elopements to micro weddings shared with closest family and friends.


Micro weddings, elopements, and intimate celebrations are a specialty, with space for just the two of you or up to 35 friends and family.


Whether planning something beautifully simple or thoughtfully layered, each celebration is shaped around what matters most.



The Westbrook Inn will be closed from January 9 through January 29 for a brief winter pause. We can't wait to welcome you back on January 30, with open doors, warm hearts, and plenty to celebrate. 🤍

Plan a special Valentine's Weekend at the Inn and elevate your stay with a bottle of Champagne & 6 of our Chocolate-Covered Strawberries, a luxurious treat featuring a chilled bottle of bubbly paired with decadent, hand-dipped strawberries.

January Sunshine: Lemon Ginger Scones

Lemon Ginger Scones are a favorite at the Westbrook Inn tea table. Bright with fresh lemon and gently warmed by ginger, they are best enjoyed fresh from the oven with a quiet cup of tea.

These are often made by the dozen and kept close for moments when the day calls for something comforting. The simplest treats tend to linger the longest, both on the plate and in memory.

Get the recipe to bake at home, or elevate a winter stay with a tea experience at the Inn.
