This Bed and Breakfast located in Rockport was just everything you could have asked for in a weekend getaway. From Boston, Rockport is easy to get to; its an hour and twenty or so minutes Commuter Rail ride from North Station.
We get a little lost when we got off the train and we called our B&B host to ask which way we should've gone. Ed (the host), says he'll be right there to pick us up! The walk is literally five minutes at most from the Commuter Rail station to the Inn, so we had no problem walking back to the train station when we left.
We requested an oceanview room, and although it wasn't seaside at all, you did get a nice view of the ocean over rooftops. The room was a suite on the 3rd floor of the Inn, with a full-sized bed in one room, your own private bath, there was an air-condition unit we didn't use, and also an extra single bed in a separate room great for a friend or a child. Beautifully furnished and wonderful.
Addison Choate is about 5 or 6 blocks, so a 5-10 minute walk, from all the little shops, galleries, and restaurants on the shore. The bedsheets were by far THE MOST AMAZING I have ever slept on, and they had discreet turn-down services in the afternoon. Everything was spotless and comfortable. The continental breakfast was pretty tasty, they had yummy looking home-baked afternoon snacks, and you literally just felt right at home.
Highly reccommended for a weekend getaway in the fall, since rates also go down in these months. Rockport itself gets iffy in the off-season evenings; we only found a couple places walking distance for dinner on the weekend, unless we were missing something. Peak season is April to September. The Inn was about $130 a night with taxes, which is great for the comfort you're getting. I slept like a leetle baby. I'm so going back.
