The Main Bedroom features painted English furniture, while an American sea captain’s chair looks on from one corner. The room is furnished with an armoire, a large chest of drawers and a very pretty little marble-topped wash stand. The room is air-conditioned.

The double bed by contrast is brand new, made in Maine from native ash by L. L. Bean, Crisp white sheets, white comforter and duvet cover are delightfully set off by a brightly colored quilt from Anthropologie.

The art on the walls in this room reflects local festivals, craftspeople and artists whose works are on display at the Farnsworth Museum.

The en-suite bathroom, new this summer, is sparkling clean and fresh.
