Meet the Owner
My name is Sherice Levan-Bennett and I am excited to be the proud new owner of the Royal Coachman Tavern and the historic Old Riverton Inn. Having grown up in the small town of East Hartland, just a few short miles from the inn, I developed a deep appreciation for the sense of community that comes with bringing people together.
I worked for several years in the restaurant industry before deciding to spend time at home raising my 3 children and volunteering for community sports and events. I then transitioned to working at the Hartland School, where I enjoyed my time for the last 12 years. I chose to end my career, and while it’s bittersweet, it was time to pursue my passion in hospitality.
At the Royal Coachman and Old Riverton Inn we’re dedicated to offering a warm and inviting atmosphere for you and your family. We cherish the bonds that have already formed here and are committed to maintaining those and many more. Whether you are here for a relaxing stay in one of our 10 rooms or just a delightful meal, we strive to provide great service and to help create memories that will last a lifetime.
Thank you for choosing the Royal Coachman Tavern and the Old Riverton Inn!

“This was exactly the spot we were looking for…for both a room and a place to have dinner. The room was IMMACULATE. I wish my sink and tub were that well scrubbed! The bed was made with plenty of pillows of differing sizes. We even had a CLAW FOOT TUB!!! The upstairs has a huge common area to read or chat. My husband and I even decided to do a short waltz for fun with a phone in a pocket providing the music. I can certainly imagine a regency era get-together or Dickens party. The building dates from 1796! The owner works so hard and really cares. i would send anyone I really like to try it!”

“We stayed 2 nights and loved it. We’ve been visiting family in north west Connecticut every summer for 14 years. Previously we’ve stayed at another inn but no more! The Old Riverton Inn was much more homey & relaxed — it will be our #1 choice from now on.”

“Stayed here for a wedding and had my dog with me. Was so excited that they had dog friendly rooms! The staff was so amazing and kind and welcomed me and my dog with no issues. Room was absolutely quintessential New England. It is old but charming. I would stay again in a heartbeat and recommend to anyone.”
