The Leete Family have owned and operated The Claiborne House Bed and Breakfast for the last 12 years as a family business. Their two lovely daughters have grown up and worked at the B&B where they met visitors from all over the United States and World. The youngest has just graduated from Franklin County High School after four years playing trumpet in the marching band. "There are a ton of opportunities found in this community," says Tony Leete who is excited for a new innkeeping family to experience the blessings of owning a fantastic bed and breakfast. "You won't need to hire staff, as there are a total of 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, 2 of which are dedicated to the owners giving them plenty of privacy and personal space. Whoever wins the essay contest will love being their own boss and running the inn their own way with their unique style." Shellie adds, "Variety is the spice of this innkeeper's life; it is all part of what makes owning and operating a bed and breakfast so much fun!" After following the essay contest for The Center Lovell Inn in Maine, the family would now like to offer this opportunity to a fresh set of innkeepers, who they hope fall in love with this Circa 1895 Queen Anne Victorian mansion as much as they have, and Shellie Leete adds, "Now it's your turn!"
