About The Six Bells Countryside Inn
In the tranquil town of Rosendale, NY, The Six Bells Countryside Inn stands as a distinctive getaway that combines historical charm with modern creativity. Originally established in the 1850s, the inn has been transformed by entrepreneur Audrey Gelman into a vivid spectacle of imagination. Housed in a storied three-story building, the inn offers 11 uniquely curated guest rooms, each integrated with the fictional legend of 'Barrow's Green.' From handcrafted murals to antique furnishings, every detail has been meticulously selected to provide an engaging narrative. The design, spearheaded by Adam Greco, converges elements of Scandinavian and folk aesthetics, creating a vivid tableau that encapsulates both whimsy and nostalgia.
Central to the social life of The Six Bells Countryside Inn is The Feathers Tavern. This 18-table venue serves as a culinary haven where chef Larkin Young presents menus rooted in early American cuisine. Seasonal dishes and hearty breakfasts feature prominently, showcasing fresh ingredients sourced from the Hudson Valley's rich agricultural landscape. Guest diners can enjoy the homey yet refined atmosphere, which echoes the wider inn's embracing of rural yet contemporary cultures. Sharing the tavern's space are custom decor elements available for purchase, allowing visitors to integrate part of the inn's charm into their own homes.
The Six Bells Countryside Inn further elevates its guest experience by offering immersive events and a retail component. Visitors can participate in seasonal activities such as murder mystery weekends and creative workshops, blending entertainment with education. The on-site shop features a selection of items—ranging from pottery to textiles—that reflect the inn's artistic ethos. These offerings not only enhance the onsite experience but also extend the inn's whimsical narrative into guests’ everyday lives.
