Fox Pond Bed and Breakfast, Marblehead

In april 2009 me and my wife stayed in the Fox Pond Bed and Breakfast for three nights. After seeing the beautiful pond room we really fell in love with the place. It is grand with a very high ceiling, beautiful large windows and a magnificent view of the beautiful, well kept garden. Behind the garden is some woodland which adds tremendously to the feeling that you're in the middle of nature. In the morning we had lots of fun seeing the little squirrels roaming around and all sorts of birds. We like walking and it is a nice nature walk to splendid downtown Marblehead. Not very far although some of the very friendly residents of the village were amazed we did not go by car. Next day we went to Salem. Also by foot, a little longer walk, a little less pretty but still fun to do. All in all we were pleasantly surprised by the hiking possibilities from this in this place. Special praise for the great breakfast, the beautiful bathroom (jacuzzi!) and Ted's relaxed way of making you feel at home. Everything in the B&B is about good taste and that delivers a great experience.

We loved everything--the area, the very well-kept backyard and gardens, the large front porch, the breakfasts (even accomodating 2 vegetarians), and of course sweet Sophie. Ted was extremely accomodating and a wonderful host. We felt very welcome. Everything was clean and comfortable. We loved the location too--close to everything, but far enough away from the busyness. We made good use of the running trail nearby. Ted gave excellent recommendations of restaurants in the area and how to best get around. The rates were very reasonable. We will definitely go back next time we're in the area.

We loved everything about Fox Pond, the relaxing back yard and pond, to beautiful landscaping, great location. Very convient to town and restraunts. Ted was an excellent host, very informative about the area. We will return when in the area again. Charlie & Susan Corwith

We loved the quite locatiion and the beauty of the home...in addition, the preserve path was perfect for an interesting and enjoyable hike We found Ted to be a perfect host and generous with information and consideration for our needs. We love Marblehead and our Fox Pond stay. We have sent friends to visit that loved it as well...we will return!

I felt like I was saying in someones house. The B&B is far from the water and anything interesting in Marblehead. If you want to enjoy Marblehead stay in old town or out on the neck. Our host was not very helpful and I found the marketing material that was provided misleading. I would not spend my money here again.
