| - My husband and I visited The Speckled Henn Inn for the third time this February and were reminded again why this is our favorite B&B, and we've been to some of the highest rated B&B's across the country. No one has come even close to Bob & Pat's place. My husband constantly says "every other B&B either does the 'bed' part really well, or the 'breakfast' part really well, but never both." Well, The Speckled Hen does everything perfectly. Upon arrival, there are 3 different types of cookies to choose from, different coffees, teas and sodas to grab for the room, and a wine cellar if you want to purchase inexpensive (but yummy) wine. The rooms are all huge with large bathrooms with jacuzzis. We've stayed in the Token Creek and Starkweather rooms - both are beautiful and we love the gas fireplaces to keep us cozy and warm. The location is perfect if you want to get away from the college kids. Its about a 15 minute drive outside of Madison, but secluded on 40+ acres with a full farm with chickens, sheep and Happy (the nicest dog in the world). The breakfasts keep me up at night in anticipation. They are each 3-4 courses of both sweet and savory options. The fresh smoked bacon with homemade maple glaze (Bob taps his own trees to make homemade maple syrup) is outstanding, the scrambled eggs look like simple, nothing fancy eggs, but they have so much flavor! I love the homemade grape sorbet they usually serve at the conclusion of the meal. You cannot go wrong at The Speckled Hen. Please go, you can thank me later.
