The Petit Pont Guest House
Nestled in the heart of Grafton, Petit Pont (meaning "small bridge") is just a hop, skip and a footbridge away from the Grafton Village Inn. Each of the six thoughtfully designed guest rooms at Petit Pont is named after a nearby creek or river, paying tribute to the waterways that have shaped Northumberland County’s landscape and history. These creeks were once vital trade routes and sources of power for early mills and industries—quiet threads woven into the story of the region. Each room blends rustic charm with modern comforts and features a king or queen bed, a private 3-piece bathroom with a shower and amenities, including complimentary WiFi, a Smart TV, a mini fridge, a coffee maker, a kettle, coffee and tea. Robes are also provided for your comfort and convenience.
