My husband and I spent a much needed respite at the Welsh Hills Inn. Our stay did not disappoint. The delicious breakfasts, amazing comfortable suite, and best of all, such gracious hosts, Bobbi and Jeff. The house is warm and inviting. We are already planning our second visit.

My husband and I celebrated a belated Valentine’s Day at the Welsh Hills Inn. This was our first time there, but the innkeepers, Bobbi and Jeff, are such gracious hosts that they make you feel like old friends. Jeff creates breakfasts that are as pleasing to see as they are to eat. Bobbi prepares social hour appetizers served with wine each evening. Coffee, hot cocoa and hot tea are available anytime as well as cold drinks and snacks. Our room was spotless, spacious and comfortable. Although it was a cold day, we were able to spend some time on our personal screened in porch, as blankets were made available. They think of everything. There are plenty of movies, games and books available if the weather keeps you inside. Activities like hiking, biking. swimming in the warmer months and shopping in town await those who want to be outdoors. The hot tub is always available and you can schedule a massage if you are interested in a spa day. The Welsh Hills Inn is a wonderful place for a relaxing, peaceful getaway. We will definitely go back! Doug and Cathy, North Canton, OH

Once you walk in the door, you know that you are going to love staying at the Welsh Hills Inn. The decor throughout is something out of Architectural Digest. Perched on a knoll, you look out on open space and woods. Our queen suite is was immense and the bed was comfy. We especially enjoyed the 6pm wine and appetizer welcome. We got to know Jeff and Bobbie. They are wonderful hosts. Jeff makes a mean breakfast and Bobbie attends to and any all of your needs. They had great suggestions. on restaurants and activities in the area. Granville is about 20 minutes west of Columbus proper and the Inn is a few miles outside of town. At night they have white Christmas lights all over the property that gives it a festive look in even in the winter. We need to come back and enjoy the pool and hot tub. If you are looking to be spoiled for a day or two, this is your kind of place. Thank you Bobbie and Jeff for your hospitality.

Welsh Hills is a truly hidden gem in Granville, Ohio. We absolutely LOVED our stay at this Inn. The entire Inn is so warm and cozy with the lighting outside, the decor, the fireplace, and especially our room. The bed and pillows were unbelievably soft. Jeff is quite the chef and Bobbi is so sweet and friendly, they made us feel right at home. We will definitely be back! Thank you Jeff and Bobbi for the most peaceful and cozy visit! Can't wait to return!

From the sheets and towels to the snacks and tea bar....the attention to detail is impressive! The Inn is warm and inviting and spotless. Bobbi and Jeff are wonderful hosts and provide delicious breakfasts. The grounds are beautiful and the rooms are well appointed. Wrigley and Dakota were fantastic companions all weekend! We will be back to visit soon.

Welsh Hills Inn is a treasured gem in Granville OH. The spotless rooms and historic charm is the reason we booked a second stay. The high level of service and the array of amenities are abundant. The common areas are beautiful including the lovey pool house. Bobbi and Jeff were gracious host and accommodated our breakfast needs. The grounds are beautiful and filled with multiple areas to sip whatever you like and enjoy the scenery. This is a MUST stay! Doreen and Dave

If you are looking for a perfect escape from the daily grind, this is the place! We enjoyed the eclectic decor filled with vintage items everywhere though out the house. The living room with fireplace and wall of double glass doors makes it very cozy and comfortable. Our room on the second floor had a nice view of the grounds, was charming and clean with a comfortable bed. The best sleep I've had in weeks. We stayed multiple nights so we were able to enjoy a private candlelight dinner that we arranged a few weeks ahead of our stay. The dinner was prepared by Jeff and every course was delectable. Bobbi made us feel very special with her attentive service. We loved their welcome dogs, Dakota and Miss Wrigley. We're planning to return this year to this haven in the country. A real find! P.S. Try their own brand of coffees and teas - you'll come home with one or more. Jim and Carolyn K.

The Inn keepers, Bobbie and Jeff, were top notch. Bobbie is more on the scene and extremely warm and welcoming. You can just tell she really loves it what she does. Her conversation is hearty and light with perfect balance. We immediately felt welcomed like showing up to a distance relatives house. The house is huge but still cozy. I love the ability to have seclusion in our own rooms and community in the same space. The food was amazing. We will definitely be back - I can't wait to see that property I the different season!

Unbelievably gorgeous house. We were well looked-after. Five-star breakfasts. Best hosts we've encountered out of twenty establisments in seven countries. Sooo relaxing. Sooo calm and quiet. Get a massage in the pool house. One of the places we return to. Nice dogs, too.
