Property description
Inn Britannia, named as one of North America's MOST ELEGANT INNS and chosen #1 for BEST BREAKFAST IN NEW ENGLAND, is a tastefully restored 1830 sea captain's home offering 8 beautifully appointed guest rooms, each with private bath and air conditioning. The Inn is situated on over 5 acres with English gardens and natural woods, and guests can stroll down a private lane to the Bay.
A bountiful multi-course gourmet breakfast, as delicious as it is beautiful, is served each morning on English Chintz china, with sterling silver tableware and delicate imported linens. Our extensive award-winning menu includes fresh eggs from the Inn's Plymouth Rock hens and home grown fruits, vegetables and herbs from the Inn's gardens.
Each guest room, with private bath, is themed after some special place in England and is comfortably furnished with antiques and delightful genuine English memorablia.
We offer comfortable common space for guests to enjoy, including a delightful loft-style game room with cribbage, backgammon, chess, darts, puzzles and television. We also provide access to the internet.
Inn Britannia's location is the perfect hub for venturing out to some of Maine's favorite destinations, a little over one hour's drive or less: Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, Schoodic Point, Blue Hill Peninsula, Rockland, Camden Village, etc.
In the finest traditions of English lodging and hospitality, you'll be treated like royalty!
