The New England House Bed & Breakfast

Innkeepers Chris and Michelle converted this historic farmhouse to a Bed & Breakfast in 2009 after moving their business from a leased location next to Proctor Academy. The New England House name was chosen after much input from family and friends and each of the guest rooms is themed after a different New England state.

Amenities include luxurious queen-size beds, private baths, in-room TV-DVD, and wireless Internet.

The New England House has direct access to the Northern Rail Trail, a converted rail bed offering fantastic hiking, bicycling, and snowmobile use in the winter.

According to the "Topographical and Historical Sketch of the Town of Andover" published in 1822 by Jacob B. Moore, Andover was originally called New Breton "in honor of those brave men who achieved the capture of Cape Breton in 1745." Most of the original grantees were out of this expedition. The regimental surgeon, Dr. Anthony Emery, was a college friend of John Phillips, founder of the Phillips Andover Academy in Massachuetts, which was completed in 1779. The town was incorporated as Andover in that same year. Andover, New Hampshire's first private school, as referenced in John R. Eastman's "History of Andover, NH 1751-1906," was started in 1822 and closed in 1828; another was started in 1848 and became Proctor Academy.

Experience the old New England traditions of fairs, craft shows, antique auctions, and small town parades. Enjoy the quiet fresh air of mornings in the country. Go apple picking, fishing, skiing, rock climbing, boating, or even enjoy a round of golf. You can experience the thunder and excitement of NASCAR racing at the New Hampshire International Speedway, enjoy snowshoeing, scuba diving, hiking, horseback riding, sailing, and kayaking, and don't miss Laconia Bike Week at Weir's Beach on Lake Winnepesaukee.
