The Captain Lord Mansion is the kind of place that mandates repeat visits. Indeed, this bewitching bed-and-breakfast rewards its guests with an engraved stone in the delightful Memory Garden upon their tenth arrival. Set on an acre of blooming gardens, this inn wholeheartedly welcomes visitors to the charming village of Kennebunkport on the southern coast of Maine. From the gentle-mannered innkeepers to the mouthwatering morning feasts, the experience is exceptional. The interiors represent a departure from the traditional country inn style, with an opulent and worldly mix of unique touches, period furnishings, and even several items belonging to the original Lord family. Each guest room is distinguished by a different theme, yet all feel luxurious.
