General Information

Cozy, low-key and completely relaxed, Le Vatout is just different enough to delight. A traditional New England farmhouse in the quiet village of Waldoboro, it’s our personal artists' retreat which we feel fortunate to share with our guests. The garden is huge and romantic, the rooms filled with art, books beckon wherever there’s space. Whether you crave the quiet pleasure of a cup of tea and a bowl of fruit on the porch, favor a communal breakfast of buckwheat pancakes or dig into a shrimp omelet at the kitchen island, Le Vatout meals have substance and flavors have a twist.

    Not for the faint at heart. An old recipe from my childhood in Northern Germany it involves buckwheat and imported twice smoked bacon – a most delicious combo – and coffee grounds! For the less adventurous I like to prepare Cheesy Eggs, a pan-fried omelet loaded with scallions and fresh herbs from our garden and topped with melted pepper jack. Puffy and golden, it’s scrumptious with fresh crusty bread.
