An Incomparable Setting

The quintessential New England wedding location for Southern Vermont weddings, civil unions and family gatherings, the Four Columns Inn bed and breakfast is situated on the picturesque Village Green of lovely Newfane, Vermont. Largely unchanged since the early 1800s, this historic Southern Vermont inn offers the perfect setting for the Vermont wedding or special gathering of your dreams.


Beautiful Gardens and Grounds

Our renowned restaurant, beautiful gardens and exceptional Southern Vermont inn accommodations set the stage. Complementing the inn guestrooms and gracious common areas, our expansive lawn extends to a beautiful stream and private mountain. This is a favorite location for weddings, dinners and receptions. We can serve up to 100 people with rented tent facilities on our grounds.



From the first visit to the inn to the wedding day you made us feel comfortable and special. We also heard raves from all our guests.

A Year-Round Event Location

In the warmer months, your guests can relax on the front porch, or explore our great outdoors – with perennial gardens, outdoor pool, and wooded hillside to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. In colder months, the inn’s warm fires and cozy comfort complement crisp winter days. We can accommodate up to 70 guests for indoor gatherings in our living room, tavern and dining room with window or fireside tables.

Dining and service at The Four Columns Inn are among the finest in New England. The same care and attention to detail that have made our restaurant renowned are reflected in the quality of our catered events in the inn, or on the grounds.

We have years of experience in the planning and execution of special events. Our long standing relationships with a network of vendors assure that you will be working with proven suppliers familiar with our property.
