The LATHROP HOUSE B&B
proudly features: A luxurious continental breakfast is served at whatever hour you choose, and refreshments of fruit, pastry, cheese, waters and coffee are available throughout the day and evening. Guests may hike, bicycle or jog in Forest Park across the street, taking in the zoo, nature trails, public pool and the finest clay tennis courts in the Northeast (as well as composition courts.) Or they may wish to enjoy the LATHROP HOUSE B&B’s own rose garden and swing on the columned front porch. The Lathrop House is a grand Victorian home, built in 1899. Located in Springfield’s historic Forest Park District, the Lathrop House B&B first welcomed guests in 2004. Within walking distance of a variety of pubs and restaurants, video store, pharmacies, churches, synagogues and world-class bridge club, the Lathrop House B&B is within five minutes drive of the Basketball Hall of Fame and downtown Springfield, ten minutes to the Big E and Six Flags, and twenty minutes from Bradley International Airport. The five-college area of Northampton and Amherst, Hartford and West Hartford are no more than a half-hour away. Note: In "this old house," rooms share a bathroom, but we can often make arrangements for your exclusive use.

Thank you for letting us borrow the car for Bright Nights even though Martin is not used to an automatic, and thank you for all the tips and rides to and from the station! Happy 2007!" ---Martin and Vivianne, The Hague. “Lathrop House is a magical mix of art and whimsy, resided over by a most welcoming hostess and her two friendly felines. We’re a ‘mother-daughter’ team off on an autumn tour of New England, and cleverly chose this as our first stop-over. A toast to Diana! The many charms and comforts of this home reflect her taste and talent.” Lois and Dot, Seal Beach, CA "Mahalo and Aloha - We enjoyed your beautiful home and gracious hospitality." Jean H. and Andy S., Aiea, Hawaii.

OUR GUESTS SAY: "Thank you for the warmth of a New England home and welcome in the clear delights of winter sun and snow." Richard K., Aranda, Australia "This is a great place to stay and experience the hospitality of the owner/hostess as well as the photography, architecture, and cats. The history of the B&B is obvious in its architecture, but the history of the '70s is also there to revisit in the photography throughout the house. We have new memories from our stay at the Lathrop House, and a new friend, both of which enrich our lives... Thank you, Diana, for making us feel so at home, and so at peace."
