The Brighton Room is an homage to the place where we met.

The Brighton Room

The Brighton Room is the larger of our two guestrooms. It’s an homage to the place on the south coast of England where we met. Explore the art, photographs and books in your room to discover more about the culture and history of this lovely seaside city. The room has a king-sized bed, TV, coffee/tea maker, small fridge and guest-controllable heating/cooling as well as a private bathroom (not ensuite, but just a few steps down the hall). The Brighton bathroom has a shower but no tub.

(Please note: Both bedrooms, bathrooms & library are located on the second floor and are therefore not suitable for guests who have trouble with stairs.)

For current rates or to book this room, please use our contact page or give us a call on 802 579 1905. We require a 50% deposit for all reservations. Rates include all taxes and, of course, a full breakfast.

WE HAVE CATS! If you’re allergic or have an aversion to them, please consider staying elsewhere. Now, about these cats: Current residents are 15 year old Piper and kitten Watson. Please note: We do not generally allow cats in the guest bedrooms, though at the moment it is nearly impossible to guarantee Watson won’t make a break for it and end up upstairs. If you are indifferent to felines, please be aware that other guests may be staying specifically to meet the kitties, and it would not be fair to deprive them of that. (Piper is a good girl, pretty shy, and only comes out when she’s in the mood.) Thank you in advance for considering us, the cats and other guests. Follow us on Instagram for lots of photos.

NOTE: We lost our dear Dexter, the original One Cat, in May of 2025. We’ve kept photos of him here as an homage to our wonderful boy.

About us

We met in Brighton, a city on the south coast of England, in 1997, and we’ve been together ever since. We married in 2012, and decided to move to the US – Pat’s a New England girl and hadn’t lived at this side of the pond for nearly 20 years. Vermont really was the only choice because of the seasons, views, politics* and warm welcome, and we chose Brattleboro because of the resilient, compassionate sense of community and the creative spirit of its inhabitants. When we opened the One Cat in 2014, we knew we didn’t want anything fancy – no hot tubs or champagne- just a friendly, comfortable space on a dowtown residential street in a vibrant neighborhood, and Clark Street fits the bill. We love our home, our neighbors, and our excellent little town, and we feel very lucky to have found such a great place and so many wonderful friends. The One Cat allows us to share some of that experience with others.

What we stand for

2026 continues to present big challenges for the US and around the world. As members of a compassionate community, we honor our committment to protect our neighbors, colleagues and friends who’ve come here to escape famine, war, and other threats, and who contribute so much to what actually IS great about America. As human beings, we are committed to a world that embraces justice, equality, diversity and inclusion, and we start each day remembering the words of John Lewis: “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.”

 

Pat, Conrad, Piper and Watson
