    Captian's Quarters

    With its serene atmosphere and beautiful ocean views, our ten-bedroom home is the perfect setting for replenishing the body, mind and spirit. Our unique B&B (bed and breakfast) offers a year-round escape for the traveler in search of inner tranquility. We offer rooms with your choice of private ensuite bathrooms to shared baths. We take pride in creating an environment that is both unpretentious and nourishing. Most of our bedrooms have spectacular ocean views, bringing in the healing sounds of the ocean and the clean, fresh smell of the sea. Nurture yourself with the sounds of nature and the aromas of home cooking.

    Enjoy sunsets on our deck, stroll along the beach, or relax in a rocking chair on our spacious front porch. We strive to provide a carefree and serene atmostphere at the Inn. The summer temperatures in New England are unpredictable; and older homes, such as ours, do not have central air conditioning. However, we have provided ceiling fans (in select rooms, please inquire), window fans, and box fans to help move the air within the Inn. In cooler weather, curl up in front of the wood stove with a book and hot tea. There are many places in which to refresh your soul. We offer an outdoor Japanese Meditation Garden and sunny large outdoor deck. You may do yoga in any of these spaces ... we have mats here you may use. Nearby are spa facilities offering massage, Reiki and other body treatments. Barbara will help you make an appointment for any of these services, so discuss your preferences with her when making your reservation.
