Description
Circa 1860. Dunes, a sandy beach, a salt marsh, ponds, tidal pools, bald eagles and 200 acres of forest and meadows surround this oceanfront classic New England home. The inn is comprised of two houses originally built as inns by sea captain George Allen. Enjoy a sunset stroll and a starlit sky, then cuddle up to sounds of the crashing waves and a roaring fire. Art from local artists are featured throughout, and the décor includes country furnishings and an occasional carved mahogany chest or table. Breakfast offerings feature freshly baked treats (strawberry-rhubarb bread is a favorite) and an entrée such as wild blueberry-filled crepes garnished with edible flowers from the inn's organic garden. The innkeepers have had careers in geology, marine biology and geography and offer a wealth of information to help you enjoy the area. They have created Oceanside Meadows Innstitute in a converted barn on the grounds for cultural and educational events. Hike the grounds, bird watch, visit the nearby lighthouse or take your camera in case you spot a moose.Location: Country.
