We could not enjoy the lawn area or the restaurant. And the noise level due to DJ and bands made our evening here disappointing. They were not the peaceful enjoyable time we had planned for. They should warn guests about this prior to booking! Very disappointing! It's almost 10 PM and the loud band is still playing !!

My husband and I love to go to York, Maine in the summer. Recently, we drove up on a Saturday…read moremorning, then spontaneously decided to stay for the night. We inquired about rooms and rates at several places, but nothing felt quite right. As we leisurely walked around, we spotted the Candleshop Inn on a quiet side street. The Inn is quaint and old fashioned, yet beautifully kept and sparklingly clean. The owners are warm and welcoming; they feel like family, yet give you space to rest and relax. Barbara and Michael are gracious hosts who make their guests feel like old friends. The rooms are comfortable, the grounds nicely kept, and the bathrooms spotless, but the Inn's crowning glory is the front porch. The wide farmer's porch sports 5 or 6 rocking chairs, gentle breezes, and a lovely view. It poured the night we were there, and even the rain was gorgeous from the front porch. The Inn also features a back porch and a meditation garden, as well as lovely common areas stocked with books and games. One note, though: the rooms have no televisions. In fact, the only TV in the place is tiny, situated in a little sitting room downstairs. I doubt there's cable, though I didn't check, and only a VHS player. This didn't detract from our visit in any way--I would recommend that you bring a laptop and a subscription to Netflix if you want to watch movies. Breakfast is served at eight by the lovely ladies at the Inn. Cold and hot cereals, muffins and breads, frittatta or pancakes, and bagels with lox, capers, and cream cheese grace the table along with freshly cut seasonal fruit and strong coffee. I highly recommend the Candleshop Inn if you are looking to stay somewhere quiet, beautiful, and peaceful with a personal touch. We loved it so much that we stayed again on Sunday night despite the fact that we both had to work Monday morning. We wanted to savor every moment, so we stayed up late, then rose at 4 am to drive back to Cambridge!
