What a delightful weekend we spent at The Thimble Islands B&B in May! Julie and Tony Broom's home is exquisite, and the view of Long Island Sound and Thimble Islands is breathtaking. I had not visited Stony Creek in many years, and it was even more beautiful than I remember. For a large relatively modern home, The Thimble Islands B&B felt warm and cozy. I loved all of the books in the front hallway. But what I loved most about The Thimble Islands B&B was the way Julie and Tony Broom welcomed us, like long awaited company, even family for the three nights we were there. They enjoy conversation. I wanted to stay and chat at the breakfast table all morning. The Broom's were kind enough to suggest places to visit on Memorial Day weekend, and we did indeed visit Stony Creek Beach, Stony Creek Market, Ashley's Ice Cream and the Dockside Seafood and Grill. But nothing compared to the lovely breakfast of fresh fruit, thick buttered multigrain toast, scrambled eggs and blueberry pancakes at The Thimble Islands B&B. And in the evening, while we enjoyed meandering down Thimble Island Road into town, I still wondered what all those delicious aromas were coming from the dining room at The Thimble Islands B&B! In those moments it felt like we were visiting a fine hotel in New York City. The Thimble Islands B&B is absolutely Connecticut. It is hard to imagine that W. Point Road is only a fifteen minute drive from New Haven and the Yale University Campus. We enjoyed lunch there on Memorial Day, near the University library. My only regret during our visit is that we weren't at the Thimble Islands B&B long enough to spend an afternoon or two on the patio watching the sunset over the Sound, and listening to the birds over the water. If I were to spend the holidays away from home, at any other time of year, this is where I would want to be. The Thimble Islands B&B felt like Paradise, and Tony and Julie Broom its gracious and endearing Lord and Lady.
