We also like the location, across from the pond and village green and within walking distance of the galleries and stores. What was once primarily a summer community because of the nearby beaches is now popular year-round. It is not unusual even in winter for the Maidstone Arms restaurant to be full on Saturday nights. When we dined there the service was a bit slow, but the food was well worth the wait. The grilled filet mignon with herbed goat cheese and smoked mushroom sauce was a dish that ranked high in culinary inspiration.
Dinners are expensive.
Reserve well in advance on weekends for the dining room, as well as the rooms. Attractions Museums, fishing, wineries and theaters are in the vicinity.
