Tillinghast Manor — Hotel in Town of Ovid

Mike and Jean are lovely hosts that made our stay very enjoyable. They provided lots of information about the area, wineries, restaurants etc and even have coupons for wine and cheese tastings. When you arrive you get a bag of goodies and a stocked refrigerator with various drinks as well as a large Keurig coffee selection. This is a charming, historic property with lots of seasonal decorations in the common rooms. The brunch was an amazing multi-course home-cooked affair with products from their own garden. We wished we could have eaten more. All rooms are upstairs and require a climb up a staircase. The location is central to lots of points of interest. We even got a tour of the local Amish Produce auction with Jean.||The Seneca room does not have any storage space at all, so you cannot unpack your suitcase, which would be nice for a multi-day stay. A chest of drawers would be helpful and maybe a small desk. There is a closet but it is full of towels and the microwave and fridge. We also prefer a...

After our daughter got married, we needed a nice quiet getaway! This bed and brunch definitely fit the bill! It is located in a beautifully restored home and conveniently located close to some great wineries. Mike and Jean were wonderful hosts and the breakfast/brunch was wonderful! We had quiche, bacon, asparagus and crème brûléed yogurt the first morning and Mike’s wonderful ribs along with an egg roulade and fresh vegetables from their garden. Not your typical breakfast but everything was delicious and kept us going all day!| The rooms were very clean and comfortable with a very generous supply of drinks, snacks and chocolates available. No television in the room which was fine with me. I will say that the next time we stay here I will opt for a room with an en-suite bath. Our bathroom was across the hall and we were supplied with super comfy robes and slippers, but I’m glad there weren’t a lot of other guests staying there at the same time. | Overall we had a great stay and can’t wait...

Jean and Mike were the most awesome hosts - wonderful helpings of hospitality, conversation, helpfulness as well as awesome brunches that you have to taste to believe.

Great atmosphere and conversation among the hosts and guest chillin' around the fire with some tasty local wines.

Location is great with easy access to many vineyards on shores of both Seneca and Cayuga Lakes. Great restaurants around the area for dinner.

The Manor is a classic manor updated with modern conveniences while keeping its original charm and impressive architecture. Woodwork and ambiance that's to die for.

The crown jewels are Jean and Mike - they literally make you feel like family with hospitality that's second to none.

We're looking forward to our next trip "upstate" and would not hesitate for a moment to...
