This was a girlfriend overnight adventure. My husband and I always stay in B & B's whenever we travel but my girlfriend does not like to stay in them because she does not feel comfortable staying in someones home. I was hoping our stay at the Inn at Tanglewood Hall would change her mind about B & B's but unfortunately it did not. Over all, we had a very good stay at The Inn at Tanglewood Hall in York Harbor Maine. Andy and Su were gracious hosts, willing to be assistance in any way. The rooms were well appointed for comfort. It is an old magnificent house built in the 1880s so there were a few issues. We were told not to leave the bathroom fan on over night because the people next door have complained about the noise it made in the past and we could hear the people next door coughing and snoring. But I guess that is to be expected in an old house. The rooms and bathrooms were immaculate except for the window sills but I know when you live in the woods it is very hard to keep the window sills clean from all the beautiful surrounding trees. We did have a problem with the bathroom sink faucet as there wasn't hardly enough water pressure to brush our teeth, let alone wash our faces . The breakfast was good but I would not call it bountiful or gourmet. The reason we go to B & B's is to get a great breakfast and when they charge $200 for the night it should be a hearty breakfast. The berry french toast sat out from 8 to 10 so it was a bit soggy by the time we got to it at 9. There was no real protein offered for breakfast in the way of meat. At first we thought the french toast was the first course, so when that was it, we were disappointed. They offered yogurt but there was very little fruit to put on it (a small bowl of melon balls with a few berries). The coffee was delicious and plentiful. I will say again that we did enjoy it over all but because of these few issues I cannot give this B & B five stars. (We have traveled all over Canada and Great Britain and every breakfast was bountiful and included protein of some sort.)

My husband and I decided to spend our anniversary in Maine this year and so we searched for a top rated bed and Breakfast near the coast. It was obvious that the Inn at Tanglewood Hall stood out amongst the reviews. Upon reading their website, we immediately booked a room for four days. The owners of the establishment, Su & Andy, went above and beyond to make our trip special. They welcomed us at the door when we arrived and instantly made us feel at home. The couple had previous restaurant experience and it showed! The breakfasts each morning were highly anticipated by everyone. I have a Gluten Allergy so they made sure to make a version of each meal that fit my dietary restrictions; having it ready as soon as I came downstairs with my husband. I was touched by this sincere form of hospitality.

Su and Andy were very attentive to our interests and where we wished to travel in Maine; making personal suggestions with directions, restaurants, and places of interest each day. I would like to mention that the couple gave the same consideration to every guest and effortlessly enticed conversations at breakfast so that they would flow between all the visitors of Tanglewood Hall. So much so, we now have two new friends from New Hampshire that we hope to remain in contact with.

Lastly, the house is just gorgeous. Coming "home", as we called Tanglewood, was always the perfect end to a long day of sight seeing. Our time at the B&B was the heart of our trip; it was the frame of a perfect picture that we hope to repeat again in the future.

My wife and I can’t say enough positive things about this Inn and about Su and Andy’s hospitality. As we approached the front door Andy had little doubt who we were and welcomed us by name. We learned quite a bit from them about the history of the Inn and of the area. They were ready with maps and a marker to show us the best routes to what we wanted to see, as well as recommendations of places to visit and eat. We purchased the Clay Hill Farms package and went to the restaurant for dinner the first night. It was a great place and a perfect meal. Can’t recommend this place enough. Service was excellent and everything was cooked to perfection. The most enjoyable meal of recent memory.

We stayed in the York Harbor Suite and loved it! It was much larger than I expected, with a bedroom, a sitting room and an enclosed porch with lots of windows. The bed was very comfy. The room was really clean, as were the common areas. I was very impressed with how well maintained the Inn is. I do a lot of work in my own home and know how difficult it is to pay attention to details, and this old Victorian home is very well kept. It had the feel of an old home, but the cleanliness of a new home. The hand painted floors in our room were impressive. After our trip to Clay Hill, we enjoyed the warm evening on the front porch, where there was a hammock and several chairs. For breakfast it was just warm enough to enjoy eating on the porch as well, as there are tables on it, too. It was very relaxing. Breakfast was delicious, too! They are very good cooks. We got to try a few new breakfast dishes, but also have bagels and English muffin, among other things. There was always hot coffee and tea available and hot cocoa, with a variety of juices.

I’m someone who is used to staying at hotels. This was my first stay at a bed and breakfast and the experience was so much better than at a hotel. Champagne and chocolates were included, as it was our 10th Anniversary. I hope to have another stay in the near future. Thank you, Su and Andy!

We were headed back to York, Maine, and trying a new B&B. It was a treasure to find the Inn at Tanglewood Hall: an impeccably-cared-for historic home, comfortable and warmly welcoming, with a charming and subtly whimsical decor. The breakfasts were superb: thoughtfully selected and expertly executed -- from "eggs in a cloud" to scrumptuous baked oatmeal -- accompanied by discreet and sensitive accommodations for those with special diets. And the atmosphere created by the host and hostess was the most relaxed, homey ambiance we've ever experienced. Su and Andy could not have helped more with individually tailored suggestions for restaurants, the stunning Cliff Walk and drives up the coast to Portland's vibrant harbor and its famous Head Light (gorgeous lighthouse/view). We really feel we've found our Maine B&B "home" for all our future trips. A true keeper.
