Just returned to UK from USA- had a wonderful stay at Welch House Inn - a gem in Boothbay overlooking the harbour - a perfect end to a perfect holiday. Mike was an excellent host- very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Great location, beautifully furnished and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was great and laid back. Would definately return. Loved the... More

Our first visit to Maine was Booth Bay. A friend of a friend had a B&B in the area but it wasn't open for season yet (mid-may) and they recommended the Welch House. If other B&B's are recommending this place, you know it has to be good. Michael and Susan are perfect hosts with many great suggestions. The breakfasts were... More

I just got back from a meandering drive up the the coast of Maine from Portland to Bar Harbor. Boothbay is a lovely town with an expansive and beautiful harbor and the Welch House is an extraordinary way to experience the town and the view. Perched on a hill a short walk (five minutes) from the very center of town,... More

We recently stayed for 2 nights at the Welch House Inn B & B (May, 20l3). Having had inferior experiences in previous trips to Maine, I was a little hesitant booking another B & B. But, alas, Boothbay Harbor has no large hotels, so we took a chance. It worked out nicely! Other than the GPS taking us to the... More

We spent 4 days and enjoyed excellent breakfasts, a comfortable room, good advice from Michael and Susan for places to go and things to do. So close to town, it was easy to just park the car and not move it unless I wanted to do some out of town exploring.

Lovely bed and breakfast spot, wonderful place to let go of the business stress and unwind. Comfortable rooms, beautiful views of the harbor area. For a nice, quiet escape this is a tastefully managed property, near to the harbor activities yet secluded enough for a delightful rest. Breakfast delightfully prepared and presented, Susan has a special touch with flavor combination.... More

The hosts were perfect and the decks were unbelievable! Roomd were classic and the fireplace was a perfect touch! Close to town too. My husband even left his wallet and sue, the innkeeper, was nice enough to ups it home to us in Boston. I would definitely recommend.

Friendly welcome, this inn is in a perfect position just off the harbour so quiet, pretty rooms and a good breakfast. I loved the selection of teas and the cosy sitting room. Good atmosphere and Susan was very helpful in planning my visit.

We really enjoyed our stay at t he Welch House. Michael and Susan were pleasant and interesting hosts. We enjoyed learning more about the inn from them. The decks are delightful. The views range from pleasant to spectacular. The food was exqisite - the rooms were clean and well stocked. Little refrigerators might be a nice addition some day? Just... More
