5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2012

Although we live in Fla in the winter, we got stuck at our Maine home late in 2011 & decided to try a few B&Bs within an hour's drive of home. This one was clean, inviting, near Damariscotta's good restaurants, the owner takes pride in all, is a good cook, plus loves dogs, for us, a great recipe! Add to... More

“Damariscotta gem”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2012

This was our third trip to the Damariscotta area. The B&B we stayed at before was closed, but we remembered the stone wall of the Newcastle Inn! The location is perfect with views of the town and river from the back yard and pleasant gardens. It is a great location for numerous day trips. We ventured to Rockland, Monehgan Island,... More

“A Most Pleasant Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2012

The Inn views the harbor and is a short walk to town. The owner is most friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good and was available over a period of time. Rooms are quite nice with adequate space. Inn has a number of common rooms available to meet other guests.

My husband and I were not very pleased with our overpriced room at the Newcastle Inn. Julie, the owner, was very nice but the room we chose was not worth the $262 fee/night. The room smelled very moldly, the floor needed to be refinished and the entrance to the room needed some paint. The cars zooming past the inn all... More
