About Silver Fountain Inn
Silver Fountain Inn is a historic nine-room inn set in an urban pocket of Dover, New Hampshire, with an elegant tone that carries through its guest rooms and its meeting and banquet space.
The property declares wedding services and offers full buyout, so a couple can take over all 9 rooms and the event space for their celebration.
Catering is handled in-house, and room types range from two-guest options such as the Duke and Duchess Rooms to the Dorothy Brown Room and The Chamber, which each sleep up to four.
The nearest airport is Boston (BOS), which we estimate at around 60 minutes away by road.

I had my wonderful baby shower at Silver Fountain this weekend and it was perfect! Gail and her team were so accommodating and the space was set up beautifully.
