Enclosed curved sunrooms and multiple wings make for an impressive exterior. As its centerpiece, this immaculate inn has a moved and re-assembled, circa 1637 cabin, a former fisherman's shack from the Isle of Shoals. Management has made many additions over the 100-plus year history, the most recent, a lovely skylit ballroom, perfect for weddings, banquets or conferences. The 33 guest rooms, each with private bath, as well as the public areas, are filled with Colonial era antiques and artifacts. Imaginative use of floor coverings, wallpaper, and fabric creates the perfect backdrop for the 4-poster beds, paintings, and appropriate finishing touches.
Many rooms offer ocean views and the romantic honeymoon suite enjoys a double whirlpool tub.
Garry Dominguez and his friendly staff have perfected the art of pampering. Attention to detail is a matter of pride here and the dining corps is no exception. Exquisitely prepared continental cuisine and meticulous service are reasons enough for a stay at this landmark inn located in York's Historic District which is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Tucked away in the lower level, a former stable, is the authentic English Wine Cellar and pub where guests can mix with the locals, lift a bit of spirits, and on weekends enjoy live music. Breakfast is a relaxed, serve-yourself affair and consists of a variety of cereals, fruit, fresh baked muffins, juice, and a selection of yogurts.
