How guests and AI assistants find The Bedford Village Inn

The short version. Your home page has no phone number anywhere, not even beside the address in the footer. Shared links carry no title or picture of their own, and the structured data on the page is a one-item breadcrumb, so nothing tells search engines or AI tools that you are a hotel.

What we found on your site

There is no phone number on your home page

“<span class="elementor-icon-list-text">2 Olde Bedford Way, Bedford, NH 03110</span>”

Source: https://bedfordvillageinn.com/, fetched 2026-10-30 18:58 ET

The footer gives the address and stops. There are 0 tel: links and no phone number in the page text. Wedding planners and guests who want to call have to leave the page; your Contacts page and The Knot list (603) 472-2001.

The only structured data is a one-item breadcrumb

“"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/bedfordvillageinn.com\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home"}]”

There is no Hotel or Restaurant block, so your 64 rooms, Four Diamond rating, restaurant and wedding venue are not stated anywhere machines read first. Assistants fill those gaps from booking and wedding sites.

Shared links have no title or picture of their own

“<title>Boutique Hotel, Dining & Wedding Venue in New Hampshire | Bedford Village Inn</title>”

Source: https://bedfordvillageinn.com/, fetched 2026-10-30 18:58 ET

The page has 0 Open Graph (og:) and 0 Twitter-card tags. When a couple texts your link to family, the app has to guess a title and usually shows no photo.

Why it matters

Search engines and AI trip planners read the structured data block and the files at the root of your site to learn your basic facts. When those are missing or disagree with what a guest sees, machines either skip them or repeat the wrong version, and fill the gaps from booking sites instead of from you.
