What our guests have to say about the. Kennebunkport, Maine... From TripAdvisor.com: BBs in Kennebunkport. English Meadows Inn Bed and Breakfast incredibly attentive care. Lovely location. Wonderful attention to detail. Great breakfast and helpful in every respect. We stay in many b b's around the world and this one ranks in the top 5%. This review is the subjective opinion of a TripAdvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Date of Stay: February, 2008. Loved the English Meadows. The other reviews are accurate! We just spent a night at the fabulous English Meadows and can't say enough wonderful things about our experience. The innkeeper Bruce is simply fantastic. He created a simple little agenda to help us get to experience Kennebunkport in the short amount of time we had to spend. Our room, the Mayfair, was spacious and comfortable. A delicious breakfast topped off our memorable stay. We look forward to visiting again in the summer and staying longer! This TripAdvisor Member: Liked The charm of the inn. Disliked We couldn't stay longer. Traveled with: Spouse / significant other. My ratings for this hotel are: Check in / front desk. Western Massachusetts. I hesitate a bit to write this review simply because I want to keep this wonderful find all to myself. My husband and I had the pleasure of staying in the Carriage House Suite for a short overnight in Kennebunkport. We know the area well and like to try out different accomedations. The suite was lovely, decorated with rich floral fabrics and antique accesories. Quaint, private, cozy but at the same time very spacious. Because there were no other quests staying in the carriage house, Bruce gave us the run of the place and I took full advantage. While my husband was up in the loft glued to the superbowl in front of a warm gas stove, I was down in the commom room of the carriage in front a rouring wood burning fireplace getting quite toasty both from the fire and also the complimentary port! Bruce could not have been more garcious. The goumet breakfast was exquisite. My search is over. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us, Mary and David. Liked Private cozy loft suite. Disliked I couldn't stay longer. A great place to stay Kennebunkport. 2/3 found this review helpful. We stayed at the English Meadows October 2007 for two nights as part of a touring holiday throughout New England. We came across the English Meadows by chance, but were absolutely delighted by both the welcome and the accomodation. Our host Bruce was very helpful in suggesting itineries and local places to visit, and happily answered any queries we had. The accomodation was cosy and comfortable. Log fires in the evening, a decanter of sherry in the bedroom and excellent home cooked breakfasts all made for a wonderfully relaxing stay. Our only regret was that we were not able to stay for longer. Liked comfortable and cosy. A fabulous respite nestled just outside of Dock Square. 3/4 found this review helpful. Wishing I was still there. We arrived for tea and after a hurried journey full of life's stresses, we were soon taken into another time of quiet splendor, listening to classical music sipping exotic teas on fine china overlooking the quiet grounds. The reservation for tea was worth every penny. It started our weekend in the most serene fashion. This was my 3rd time to Prelude, yet first time at The English Meadows. I have never had such a wonderful pampered experience. Valerie Bruce Jackson, born Innkeepers in every sense of the word are what sets this place apart. Every detail and personal attention made the difference I have stayed at several Inns in the area. In the other places, I have never witnessed the 'joy' of doing what they do and caring for their guests such as we experienced at the E-Meadows. We will definately be coming back bringing more new faces to this fabulous place of serenity next visit to Kennebunkport. We want to see it in spring or summer to take in the gardens in full bloom.

I selected this hotel because... Other. Traveling group: Spouse / significant other. My visit was for: Quality time with family. My husband and I spent one evening of our trip at the English Meadows Inn BB. This was our first time to stay in a BB, so I have to admit that we were a little nervous. We stayed in the Bloomsbury room for $215.00 a night. It was a nice, quaint room with a queen size bed and a decent sized bathroom. We especially enjoyed the downstairs sitting room with fireplace and house cat to keep us company during the evening. :) The breakfast served at the English Meadows Inn was the best breakfast of our entire 5 day trip; plus you don't have to sit at a community table with all the other guests. Bruce and his wife were excellent hosts and served up a blueberry brundel that was out of this world! They then followed that with a baked peach with granola and yogurt, and a four cheese quiche. I have to say that their hospitality was wonderful and they take a lot of pride in their BB and I would absolutely return again!

Traveling group: Friends. My visit was for: Quality time with friends. My friend and I chose English Meadows Inn as our 'home base' for a quick visit to Maine. The Innkeeper, Bruce, provided not only a fantastic breakfast each morning in the beautiful tea room (Grand Marnier French Toast, apple-cranberry compote, strata, souffle, spiced apple muffins and more!), but lots of great suggestions on things to see and do in the area. His warm personality was an added bonus to our stay. Our room was very cozy, with down comforters on the beds that were perfect for the chilly nights, and a wood-burning fireplace just outside in the main sitting area of the Carriage House. After a day of adventure, it was so relaxing to come back and sit before the fire with a small glass of sherry and a good book or game of Chinese Checkers (wish we knew the REAL rules!). The Inn is just a short walk to lots of shops and restaurants as well. This TripAdvisor Member: Liked: Great decor, incredible breakfast, warm hospitality, Disliked: tiny bathroom (in the twin room).
