A beautiful and historical house, bits of history in every room and corner, a cat named Reign of Rory, a replica of the house in the garden, quiet places to relax and meditate, a luxurious room and bathroom, wonderful breakfasts and an amazing host (Debra Quartermain). What more could one ask for a stay in Fredericton, New Brunswick? ||We had such a wonderful time time at Quartermain House. I had initially booked one night at Quartermain House but then changed it to two nights. I liked that we could book our stay in a more traditional fashion (email, phone) as it added a personal touch. Debra greeted us as soon as we arrived and took us around the house and explained a little bit of its history. The house is simply full of history in every piece of furniture, pictures, books, lighting fixture, along with little objects that took you back through time. I could have spent hours in the various rooms.||The room that we got, the Quartermain Quarters, along with the bathroom, was luxurious and comfortable and had everything that we needed for a relaxing stay and good night's sleep (including some Ganong Pepts chocolates courtesy of Debra). Breakfast was delicious and artfully presented. Debra herself was very sociable and welcoming, and my husband and I liked her immediately. ||Another great thing about Quartermain House is that it is literally steps from the St. John River and a trail system that took you to many places around the city. Downtown Fredericton is only about 15 to 20 minutes away by foot and there is no need to take the car into the core area. Fredericton itself has so many historical buildings to explore including the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick.||My husband and I lived in Fredericton a few decades back and it was nice that we could take our time to go around and see how the city had changed. Overall, it was a very nice stay. We very much appreciate the kindness and hospitality of our host, Debra, and the next time we're in Fredericton, we will book our stay at Quartermain House again.
