The Perfect Place ~ The Inn's History

Frank L. Hughes originally constructed the building, which now houses The Glynn House Inn, in 1896. The Hughes family moved into their new home the same year. It was located in an area known as "Millionaires Row".  Located on a quiet residential street, the grounds are beautifully landscaped, with sweeping porches as well as pleasant areas to relax and enjoy the fresh country air. A five-minute walk brings you to the quaint village of Ashland, where you'll find antiques, art galleries and restaurants. Complete with pampering amenities, delicious food and exceptional staff, the Inn offers the perfect getaway for your New Hampshire holiday.

A Carriage House was added shortly after the main building was completed.  The Hughes family decided to create a residence for their caretaker in 1920. They had the Carriage House moved to its current position - approximately 130 feet behind the main building - over a weekend. Workers lifted the building with jacks, rolled logs under the structure and released the jacks. The Carriage House was then pulled with ropes to its new position.

Creating The Inn
The main house has been the residence of a number of prominent local families over the years. Karol and Betsy Patterman acquired the main building from the owner of the Ashland textile mill in 1987. The Patterman family spent almost two years installing fireplaces, a commercial kitchen, bathrooms, and decorating. The Inn opened for business in 1989.

The Patterman family acquired the Carriage House from the Shaw family in 1990. Bob Shaw had owned the building for 22 years but wanted to spend part of the year in Florida and needed to proceeds from the sale to buy a Florida home. The Pattermans spent over a year installing guest facilities in the building.

Second Owners
Gaye and Jim Dunlop purchased the Inn in 2001. The Dunlop's significantly improved the Inn interior. They transformed guest and public room décor, and added a range of amenities. They also secured membership in the coveted Select Registry group and earned coveted three star ratings from AAA and Mobil.

Today
The Heidenreich family acquired the inn in 2006. Their search for the 'perfect' bed and breakfast lasted 20 months and spanned five countries. Pam and Ingrid's culinary and creative skills, coupled with Glenn's global corporate experience, have equipped them to further enhance the high standards guests have come to expect at The Glynn House.
