Heavitree Bed & Breakfast

Heavitree Bed & Breakfast is a historic wedding venue located on a 140+ acre farm in Griswold, Connecticut. The property has remained in the Geer family since their ancestors settled the land in 1700, with family roots tracing back to Heavitree, England in 1635. The venue features an authentic 18th-century tavern building that was relocated from Rhode Island to complement the family's historic farmland. The 4,780 square foot farmhouse contains twelve rooms, including four sleeping chambers, blending period architecture with modern amenities. Heavitree specializes in intimate, private wedding celebrations and offers a distinctive wedding weekend concept. The property provides multiple event spaces across its extensive grounds, including vast lawns, fields, gardens, and private vistas. Couples can host rehearsals, rehearsal dinners, ceremonies, receptions, and wedding brunches all on the same estate, with each event featuring different scenery and setups. The venue accommodates wedding party preparations, guest lodging, and extensive photography opportunities throughout the historic property and surrounding landscape.
