Charming Inn on the seacoast
We love this inn. It is perfectly situated minutes away from all the great restaurants in Kittery and a short walk from downtown Portsmouth.
We have stayed here twice and each time our room has been lovely; cozy, clean and full of charm. The lobby area is always stocked with snacks, coffee/tea and juices. It is a very special place and we will definitely return. The perfect spot for a relaxing mini vacation on the seacoast.

We loved the surrounding area and walkable streets. The street was heavily traveled but wasn’t a problem for sleeping.

It was a unique experience. The Inn is an old house and our room was in the attic - spacious and a view of the harbor.

Quaint atmosphere.
Front sitting porch and victorian architecture is lovely. Overlooks or near the waterfront can see the bridge and wee bit of water from our window.

Great area and just a short walk across the bridge to Portsmouth. Options for food and shopping extensive in the area. Accommodations were clean. Staff was fabulous. Coffee and snacks provided. Wine glasses and wine opener available. Hair dryer in room. Ice and water available. Community refrigerator you just write your name on it if you want to use.

Quaint and quiet
Quaint older inn. Great communication for check in and stay. Fantastic for a weekend couples stay. Highly recommend breakfast at Lil's Cafe and outdoor casual dinner at the Buoy Shack, both within walking distance. Kittery is lovely.
