My son booked us in here as a Mothers Day treat for my wife. Have to say we were blown away by this place. Our room (no. 8) was amazing. Beautiful older world furniture and decorations. Greeting was so friendly. Not only do you get breakfast but afternoon tea (with wine) and unlimited access to cold drinks in the fridge... More

My dear friends gave us a weekend away at 1708 House for our wedding gift. We had such a wonderful stay. The Inn is absolutely charming (and spotless), and located in central downtown Southampton, which is great for exploring the nearby shops and stores. I recommend renting a car, so you can drive by the beach and check out other... More

My wife and I spent a wonderful weekend in Southampton at the 1708 House and it could not have been better!!! Due to the fact that it was "off season", we got a great price on a beautiful room, which had a queen bed, private HUGE bathroom, and a jacuzzi tub. The house itself is a gorgeous piece of history,... More

Linda & Kelly are such friendly and gracious ladies, always making us feel welcome without being intrusive. 1708 House sparkles and is decorated with beautiful period furniture that is... More

My wife treated me to an early birthday getaway from the city on the weekend of 3/22/13. In a word-relaxing!1708 has tons of character, is clean and comfy all around. Gracious and diligent staff. We were the "young couple" on the same weekend that a group of older couples, and one or two families, were in attendance - no conflict... More

My wife and I recently made a trip to the Hamptons and stayed at the 1708 House. Accommodations, service and amenities were all excellent. This is a beautiful restored B&B steps away from the center of Southampton. The pics online do not due this place justice. You need to experience it in person.

Highly recommend and only wish I had more time at The 1708 House. I was visiting the area for a memorial service and only stayed one Friday night. The historic house is beautifully decorated, well maintained and very clean. The accommodations were very comfortable, and the B&B centrally located. I enjoyed their afternoon tea and wine service with a friend... More

My husband and I had a very lovely two-night stay at the 1708 House over President's weekend. We couldn't have been more pleased. As others have noted, the place is beautifully restored and in immaculate condition. The quality of the woodwork is outstanding -- everything gleams. There are several public rooms for reading, relaxing and game-playing, including a great bar/cellar,... More

My visit at the 1708 House was unbelievably relaxing even though I was there on a business trip! The room was cosy, warm at all times and very clean. The bathroom had from toothbrushes and toothpaste to body cream. Breakfast was delicious and you could get eggs made in any way you choose! I give the 1708 House five starts!
