My 2 daughters and I just returned home, from five days at the Henry Derby, in Salem. I was very impressed by the authentic, historic style of Peg's two homes, next door to each other. Peg's decor is lovely and the whole experience transcends you to another era in time. The wide-plank, authentic pine floors in the bedroom, where I... more

Unfortunately, due to my own ignorance, when I made my reservations with Peg a couple months ago, I looked for the phone number and cost of the rooms as well as the location, and did not notice that she actually... more

I advise people not to listen to the negative reviews listed below... My father and I stayed here for a week, and indeed in the room where you had to lift the door up in order for it to close properly... but you know what? BIG DEAL! The house is old, the property is old, it's in an old area... more

Our stay at the Henry Derby House was one of the best vacations at a B & B. The Host made us feel so welcome. Our first breakfast lasted over two hours. The conversation with the host was so exciting we did not want to leave the table. She has a vast knowledge of the area and throws in her... more
