It was our first time in Bar Harbour and we were extremely impressed with the calibre of Thornhedge. It was in a good location, just a short stroll into the main town and right on the edge of the Acadia NP. Our room was decorated in traditional style, very comfortable and clean. The hosts were very accommodating and provided cheese and wine each evening for guests to sit and socialise which was a lovely touch. Our only slight disappointment was breakfast, although there was plenty to help yourself to it was fairly limited unless you eat lots of cake for breakfast! Overall it was a lovely stay and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We loved the location, everything was within walking distance. Andrew was a fine host and he knew all the great places to dine. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location. Town was 2 minutes away. Breakfast was above Continental Style. Room was clean as-well-as the bathroom. Staff was polite and very helpful.

I have been returning to the Thornhedge Inn for years. I have stayed at other B & Bs over the 21 years that I have returned to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park. The Thornhedge has been by far my favorite. I will be returning again next year. Andrew has been a wonderful host. The Thornhedge not only has a selection of beautiful rooms, but offers museum like parlors for sitting, reading, and meeting others at the 5pm daily wine and cheese hour courtesy of Andrew. Andrew interacts with his guests sharing ideas for dining, Acadia attractions, hiking, and other activities to make certain his guests stay is memorable. Unlike many B & B operators, Andrew is easily approachable, especially during breakfast hours. I have met many interesting guests during my stays at the Thornhedge. It is wonderful inn for a short or longer term visit to a most beautiful area of our country.

The B&B was lovely, clean, and well maintained. The host was gracious and helpful with points of interest in the area. The wine and cheese at 5:00 p.m. was a fine feature that we've not experienced at any other B&B. The breakfasts were not what we had expected.

October 11, 2012
My husband and I had a pleasure to stay in Thornhedge Inn at the end of September. The Inn was very well maintained and beautifully decorated inside. It's located in a heart of Bar Harbor, just a block away from Main Street and a minute walk from all the great restaurants and stores. The owner Andy is very nice and welcoming. It's only 5 minutes away from the entrance to beautiful Acadia National Park! We highly recommend Thornhedge Inn!

This B&B is right in town. Andrew, the owner goes to great lengths to make everyones stay a memorable one. He sits with the group during the wine and cheese daily get together which is in the afternoon. The house is a treasure of collectibles and antiques. We have been to this B&B several times and have never been disappointed.

The rooms were very comfortable. The whole decore was furnished with period furniture... almost a museum in itself. The place was extremely well kept and the atmosphere was congenial. I would recommend Thornhedge to anyone staying in the Bar Harbor, ME area.
