Southwest Harbor, ME 04679
The very first Bed and Breakfast on Mount Desert Island, Maine, Penury Hall has been in continuous operation since 1982. Our B&B, conveniently close to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park, is an historic property built in 1830 in Southwest Harbor, which has welcomed many through its distinctive red front door. We have 3 guest rooms, each with a private bath. We enjoy sharing our love of fine arts, antiques, gardening, books and sailing with our guests. Our scrumptious breakfast menu features a different hearty morning meal daily. Located on the "Quiet Side" of Mt. Desert Island, we are less than a half-mile from many of the attractions of Acadia National Park. Hiking, biking, kayaking, whale watching or just lolling on a rock by the ocean are a few of the many pleasures that await you. A grand selection of dining places, whether it be gourmet or lobster-on-the-pier, await your discovery. We look forward to adding you to our extended family!
