Sue and Jerry are native New Yorkers, who quit the ‘‘rat race’’ of their corporate jobs to run a child-free bed and breakfast in this beautiful part of the world. They opened Compston House as an American-style B&B ten years ago, and they’re still smiling.

Sue loves to cook, and has just received the prestigious Breakfast Award from the national tourist board.  She makes her own pancakes fresh and hot everyday, and also cooks up a great full English breakfast, overstuffed cheese omelettes, and eggy bread as you like it, and as a special treat on Sundays—homemade blueberry muffins! And, Jerry’s Brooklyn hospitality will make you smile as he asks ‘‘How you doin’?’’
