      "question": "How many days should I plan for a stay in Shelburne, Vermont?",
      "answer": "Two nights is a practical minimum for a full experience — one full day plus two partial days (arrive and explore on Day 1, full itinerary on Day 2, late morning departure on Day 3). Three nights allows a more relaxed pace with day trips to Burlington, Stowe, Middlebury, or the Champlain Islands without feeling rushed."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can I visit Shelburne Farms, Shelburne Museum, and Burlington in one trip?",
      "answer": "Yes — easily. Shelburne Museum (0.8 mile) and Shelburne Farms (1.7 miles) are both within a few minutes of the inn. Burlington’s waterfront, Church Street, and dining are approximately 7 miles north. Most guests fit all three into a single two-night stay with time to spare."
    },
    {
      "question": "What is a good long-weekend itinerary based from Heart of the Village Inn?",
      "answer": "A typical long-weekend structure: arrive Friday afternoon, explore Shelburne Village on foot and have dinner at a local restaurant; Saturday — Shelburne Museum in the morning, Shelburne Farms in the afternoon, Burlington for dinner; Sunday — custom breakfast, late-morning departure with a stop at Shelburne Vineyard or a farm store on the way out. Breakfast is included each morning (7:30–9:30 AM), and check-out is by 11:00 AM."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is a car necessary for exploring the area?",
      "answer": "A car is helpful for day trips beyond the village — Burlington, Stowe, Middlebury, the Champlain Islands — but many guests park on arrival and don’t need to drive again until departure. Shelburne Museum, village restaurants, and local shops are all walkable from the inn."
