The West Lane Inn

The West Lane Inn, built in 1849, combines the charm of an intimate country Inn with every convenience of a hotel. For those seeking a special getaway, we are situated in the historic district of Ridgefield, CT. One of New England’s most scenic colonial towns, Ridgefield is located in Fairfield County only 1 hour and 15 minutes north of New York City. To quote from Frommer’s guide, “no town in Connecticut has a grander, more imposing main street, impressive any time of the year, the town is nonetheless a true evocation of the New England character, a hint of Vermont ”.Ridgefield offers an array of activities, including outdoor concerts at Ballard Park, and at the popular Ridgefield Playhouse. The acclaimed Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art and the Keeler Tavern is just a five minute walk to Main Street which also provides a myriad of shops and antiquing. Take a short drive to one of our national parks, the Weir Farm, or the Philip Johnson Glass House.Ridgefield is known for having some of the finest restaurants to suit any palate. Voted best French restaurant by CT Magazine, is our neighbor Bernard's and Luc's Cafe.
