The Inn at English Meadows

We had a lovely stay. Carmen took good care of us and made sure that we had a beach pass and chairs when we went to the beach. The Inn is clean and nicely decorated. We were in Room 9, up top in the Carriage House with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom and private porch. There’s a Nespresso machine and also one in the common area. The stairs are very steep getting up to Room 9, so be aware of that. They have comfy robes and a wood stove which we didn’t need in July. There’s a really nice wine dispenser where you can buy a taste or a glass of red or white wine. Nice touch. We walked to town one night for dinner, it’s close. Breakfast was very good, 2 courses every morning. Creative fare and lots of good coffee. We met really nice people at breakfast, mostly couples but a few families had small children. There are 2 EV charging stations (free), also a nice touch.

super clean and great host will definitely stay there again breakfast was spot on and delicious gave my wine card a good work out

This is the worst B & B we have ever stayed in. The Inn at English Meadows was obviously once a lovely property, but it is need of modernisation. Our room looked lovely in the photos on their website. The reality was quite different. One of the windows in our bedroom had a small hole and large crack in it. The television didn't work, the bed was uncomfortable and the duvet cover had not been ironed. It looked as though the whole bed had not been changed since the last occupants. The owner Diane was not there so we told the person left in charge who assured us she would tell Diane. We met Diane the next day at breakfast and asked if if she had been told about the window or TV and she said she hadn't. We told her we had not slept well due to the window as it let in traffic noise and wind. We were there 2 days and nothing was done about the window or TV. I know it is probably not easy to get a glazier at short notice to replace a pane of glass but someone could have put a board over it to make it safe/weatherproof. We were not offered a other room. Breakfast - the first day, the starter was strawberries and watermelon. The strawberries tasted like they had been soaked in vinegar (ugh) The second course was French toast with raspberry puree. It was edible but nothing special. The second day the starter was coffee cake. My wife has a nut allergy so asked if it contained nuts as coffee cake often has walnuts or almonds in. Diane said she would find out and came back to say it did not have any nuts in. Having seen it being delivered to other guests my wife declined as it looked as though there were nurses I it. I do not like coffee cake so I also declined. Diane did not offer us an alternative. On another table, one of the guests asked if the coffee cake was gluten free, and was told it was not. Diane immediately asked if she would like strawberries and blueberries with yogurt as an alternative. I then asked if my wife and I could also have this as an alternative. Diane apologised and said she should have asked us. The gluten free guest got strawberries, blueberries and yogurt. My wife and I just got 10 blueberries and yogurt but no strawberries. We felt as if we were being treated differently with no justification for doing so. Housekeeping was practically non existent. The first day all guests at breakfast were asked if there room needed servicing. We said yes and expected it would be done after we had gone out for the day. After breakfast we returned to our room and found the bed had been pulled up but the bins had not been emptied, the bathroom area not cleaned and used cups not taken away. We would not recommend The Inn at English Meadows as it is overpriced and needs updating badly. For what we paid, and the reviews on the website we were expecting a much higher quality establishment than it was.

1st time here celebrating a special birthday with my family. Carmen , who is the innkeeper, was beyond amazing! She contributed to making our stay amazing! She does it all . Very clean and comfortable accommodations and sa perfect location. Thank you, Carmen , excellent food

The Inn at English Meadows is a delightful place to stay! The location is perfect, the room was wonderful and very comfortable, and the staff was so welcoming. Carmen took amazing care of us, and was willing to provide anything that we might need.

The perfect place to relax and enjoy the quaint town of Kennebunkport. From the Inn you can walk into town for a good meal or just a nice glass of wine and enjoy the town.Diane and Carman made us feel so welcome. The breakfasts were filling and we enjoyed being on the patio on a beautiful few days. We will be back again.
