I wish I had known about this place earlier as my daughter has graduated from University of Massachusetts and is moving away from Amherst, but I highly recommend the black walnut Inn if you’re in Amherst for any reason!!

We were in town for a lacrosse tournament and found this gem on hotels.com. It was a great spot, perfect location, and loved the vibe of a farmhouse turned into an Inn. Hot breakfast made to order was fantastic. Room was spotless and spacious. Bathroom was immaculate as well.

Property was lovely. Check-in is turn key and you only see staff at breakfast - which was lush both days. Central to all you need in Amherst, but off the main drags so nice and quiet. Fab mattresses! Visit the chickens!

What a wonderful place to stay as we enjoyed our daughter's graduation at Umass. They go and above and beyond to make it special. We stayed in a suite so we had plenty of space. They didn't miss any details. The breakfast was so special and tasty. I would highly recommend.

Gail and team run a fine facility. Room was very clean, well kept, recently renovated but charming. Bed was comfortable and the breakfast was fantastic. The omelet was delicious and the bacon was perfectly cooked. Crispy to perfection.

Wonderful B&B! My husband and I took our two daughters (ages 3 and 1) to Magic Wings and wanted to make it a fun overnight trip. The Black Walnut room #7 was excellent, large and clean with 2 double beds (we brought our own Pack n Play). Smart TV, lots of outlets and a bonus couch with a round coffee table (which is something you don't really think about until you have a toddler..) everything you could want. Breakfast was made to order, and my 3 year old LOVED her chocolate chip pancakes. The owner and the chef went out of their way to make us feel welcome with small kids and I'm really appreciate that, we look forward to our next visit!

The historic charm, combined with the updated bathrooms, made this property unique. Homemade baked goods and freshly made to order breakfast makes this a much better option than any area hotel.
