10/10 Excellent
Such a great way to stay on New Castle Island - the studio (#5 with a view of the water) is very charming, well appointed, and super clean. Walkable to the beach and right next door to Henry’s Market, which as delicious breakfast and lunch items and friendly service. Highly recommend for a relaxing weekend or longer.

In July 2013 when someone recommended this B&B, I filed away the information for future use. Then a few months later in that fall of 2013, when I was looking 4 some rest and relaxation, we made our first reservation. Fast forward 3 years, and I am still staying there and making future reservations. We’ve been there for random getaway weekends; for their art shows; for holidays; just to escape the heat; and for the opening of Otis restaurant. A group of us have booked a couple of rooms for a...

This is a beautiful old house, with real antiques everywhere. There are many details such as all day coffee and other hot drinks, complimentary sherry, and chocolates. The breakfast is substantial and the garden is lovely. All around a very nice place within 10 minute walk to center of town.

Cute little spot that is just across the bridge from the fun part of Portsmouth. Unfortunately the weather wasn't nice for us, but if it was, you could certainly walk there. The room was well designed and my wife really appreciated how comfy the bed was.

The Silver Fountain Inn is such a cute little bed and breakfast with an amazing selection of teas and delicious breakfast included! We stayed in the Chambers and the bed was the most comfortable ever outside of my own bed at home. Wonderful place, will stay again.

Went to Ogunquit for a weekend getaway. The Grand Hotel was a quaint and charming place. Building is older so we could hear when people were talking (or snoring) next door. Rooms come equipped with white noise machines which helps reduce the exterior noise. The location can't be beat as it's locating almost perfectly between Perkins Cove and "the strip" in town. We would definitely stay there again.
