    Our two night stay at the Bittersweet could not have been any better, A lovely super clean bed and breakfast, This was the first time we stayed at a Bed & Breakfast and it was a wonderful experience. . Thanks to the owners Ray and Victor..We own a home in York which we close down the winter months. We have now found a great place (Bitter Sweet) to stay several weekends during the winter months.. If you are ever in the York area this is the place to stay Donna & Steve

    We stayed at Bittersweet for two nights at the end of our seventeen day trip to New England. What a wonderful way to end our trip. The home is beautifully renovated and has just the right amount of decor to make it comfortable. Our rooms were good and the breakfast fine, not fancy. I have decided that all B&B 's should have a Keurig coffee machine to cater to those of us who need a bit more caffeine in the morning as well as whenever we want. It is always awkward to have to ask for the innkeeper to boil water for tea. Having an electric kettle would help as well.

    Great place to stay!

    My husband and I just got back from a 2 night stay here. The owners were great and made us feel welcome and were helpful in making suggestions of where to eat and things to see. The blueberry muffins were the best ever! The location is close to several towns and things to see. We hope to come back again! Allan & Angela

    My wife and I just returned from our trip through Maine. The Bittersweet B&B was the last stop on a 10 day trip and ended the trip on a wonderful note. The room was spacious and sparkling clean, the common areas comfortable and accomodative. The fresh muffins and full breakfast was delicious. Thanks to Victor and Ray for alllowing us into their beautiful and historic inn. Great recommendations on hikes and dining helped us enjoy our stay. Try it, you will love the place and the owners.
