Boston Globe, July 2008 "If you can tear yourself away from "Gerry's Berry Buffet Breakfast" or afternoon cookies and cream on the veranda, you might consider touring the surrounding area where this charming 1830's B&B is located; classic styling is met with luxurious modern amenities (Molton Brown bath products) at this cliffside spot frequented by TV producers scouting locations and soaking up works of the former artists-in-residence" -- ZAGAT Top US Hotels, Resorts and Spas, 2006 Guide. "This handsome inn offers a homey atmosphere just a short walk to the center of town. One of the highlights is the immense wraparound porch, complete with rocking charis, where you could relax away an afternoon if you like. Rooms, which are spotlessly clean, range widely in size from the garret rooms on the third floor, to more spacious expanses on the second floor. Little extras include luxury bath products and robes. The entire property is outfitted with free wireless Internet. An artist-in-residence program means the walls are hung with numerous interesting paintings." ---Frommers Guide, New England

Loved our vacation at the Century House. We spent six days in June and it was a spectacular and relaxing getaway. The weather had it's ups and downs but overall we had a good time. We stayed in the white narcissus room which had been renovated as recently as last year. Its decor is from the pages of a magazine. The room is very inviting and comfortable. Initially we wanted a king size but it was fine, large enough not to feel crowded. The innkeepers are welcoming. They put a lot of thought and care, and you can see it from the moment you walk in. The breakfast is unbelievable. I am not a health freak but prefer to eat healthier and the breakfast was perfect for me; this was actually one of the reason why we chose to stay @ the Century House. The fridge in the room was also a plus to store our wine and cheese. Location couldn't be better, very close to town & within walking distance to the beach. We'd love to come back in the fall. We will recommend it highly in the future!
