Melville House B&B ( New Bedford )
In the 1860's Herman Melville often visited New Bedford, Massachusetts and enjoyed the comforts of his sister's home. Now his experience can be yours.
The Melville House stands on an historic street lined with stately federal and Victorian mansions built by 19th century sea captains. This restored 1855 Italian Empire house, originally built as a wedding gift by a wealthy sea merchant for his daughter, was once owned by Herman Melville's sister, Katherine and her husband, engineer and poet John Hoadley, who had become close to Melville.
