Gilja does a fantastic job of maintaining this grand old Arts and Crafts style home and of taking care of her guests. We thought the breakfasts were great---I can't imagine needing more or better, and she was a lovely host. My husband and I like B&B's and would highly recommend this one to fellow travelers. It is a great place... more

Not a fan of B&Bs but none the less have stayed in many throughout the U.S & Europe. The Kennett House is spectacular--- more like a boutique inn with its quality ammenities & tasteful decor. No detail is overlooked. The breakfasts are gourmet made with the freshest ingredients. Gilja is a hostess par excellence. We stayed in the Delaware Room,... more

This is a fantastic historic home, with many unique features. It's located really well, close to Brandywine Battlefield, right on the edge of Amish country, and within easy driving distance of Philadelphia. The town itself is very quiet and friendly, and the place lends itself to a relaxing stay away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. The... more

We stayed in the Delaware Room which has an adjacent sitting area with TV. Unlike the previous reviewer, we found that it wasn't noisy at all. Since this suite of rooms is toward the back of the house, we did not hear any traffic or noise. There was nice bathrobes, luxury soaps and lotions, along with other necessities you may... more

Absolutely fabulous weekend...our hostess, Gilja, could not have been warmer or more accommodating. We stayed in the Delaware Room, which is actually a two room suite including the enclosed former sleeping porch; it was cozy and just large enough for the two of us and our stuff for three days. The bed linens were sumptuous and the decor is wonderful.... more

The room was gorgeous, with fresh linens, a soft bathrobes and luxury soaps and lotions! All of the little details really... more

We stayed at this bed and breakfast in Sept of 2007 and were very impressed with the house, the hostess, and the amenities and appointing of the rooms. The location is great, only a couple block walk to the quaint shops and restaurants in Kennett Square. The only complaint we had was with the breakfasts. For both mornings we had... more

My husband and I just returned from a two night stay at the Kennett House and we can't say enough good things about it. We are seasoned B&B travelers and we know a good one when we see it! The hostess was most charming and very knowledgeable about the area and the local restaurants and was most happy to make... more

only 4 rooms in this fantastically maintained circa 1910 home and gilja the new owner is barely a whisper of a woman but she sure gives supersize comfort. even tho' the rooms aren't big either, they were very quiet, clean and high quality. there is a nice large round table in an upstairs (all rooms on 2nd floor) sitting area... more
