Newcastle Inn is located in the Damariscotta Region of the Pemaquid Peninsula. This historic Bed & Breakfast provides elegant and comfortable surroundings with serene views of the Damariscotta River. The common areas (living room, three-season porch, sitting room, pub, and deck) of the B&B provide a variety of areas to sit and relax while visiting with other guests, or you can find your own quiet
corner to enjoy just by yourself. There is complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the inn and a guest pantry with complimentary beverages. And of course a delicious, full breakfast is served each morning – outside on the deck in the summer! The guest rooms all have private baths, a king or a queen bed with one room having two twin beds. For those occasional summer days that need it, all guest rooms are equipped with air conditioners. Some guest rooms have a TV and a gas fireplace or gas stove. Our bed and breakfast is a perfect "home base" for exploring nearby Boothbay Harbor, Monhegan Island, Freeport, Portland, Rockland, and Camden; all of which are all less than an hours drive. While close to these tourist areas, the twin villages of Newcastle and Damariscotta provide a quiet respite from the hustle and bustle of these busier areas all the while offering you historic charm, a variety of restaurants, and unique shopping and activities. At the end of a busy day, return to the quiet and tranquility of the Newcastle Inn. Directions:
