What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Downstate New York has been doing luxury hospitality longer than just about anywhere else in the country, and the Bedford Post Inn… combines that old-world elegance with contemporary charm.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Bedford backcountry trails begin just beyond the property, threading through quiet Westchester woodlands and rolling horse country.
The rooms
Eight rooms pair working fireplaces and clawfoot soaking tubs with heated bathroom floors and private terraces facing the woods.
The pool
Blue lounge chairs and stone coping surround the outdoor pool, set beside landscaped garden beds and quiet lawns.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Bedford Post Tavern
The tavern serves elevated American classics made with seasonal Hudson Valley produce, alongside cocktails at the central bar.
At the table
Candlelight warms the dining rooms in the evening, where guests gather around dark velvet booths and an illuminated bar.
How it began

Actor Richard Gere and Russell Hernandez stepped in during 2007 to rescue and meticulously restore the crumbling eighteenth-century estate.
