The Basics

SELECT REGISTRY MEMBER SINCE 2023

Originally constructed in 1790 for the Cuthbert Family, this antebellum-style home served as a residence during the summer social season. While welcoming visits from other prominent families and political figures, their refreshing retreat along the bay was perfectly situated to capture cool, gentle coastal breezes. Over time, the home has been lovingly preserved and meticulously restored into the grand, historic inn it is today.

Cuthbert House was the most lovely B&B we've stayed. Superb breakfast, social hour, beverages and snacks. The rooms are gorgeous with amazing attention to detail. Spacious, beautiful bathrooms, extremely comfortable beds. The wonderful people that work here top it all off. So friendly, kind and professional. We will definitely be staying here again. Absolutely stellar experience!

Absolutely a 10! We had a wonderful time staying at Cuthbert House for our anniversary. Could not be more impressed with the staff and accommodations - particularly Matt and Robert. Taking the time and effort to make accommodations for my wife’s gluten sensitivity was "above and beyond" anything we have ever experienced. So thankful for their extra efforts and attention to detail. We will definitely be back in the...See More

The staff at this well appointed and beautifully restored B&B were amazing. From the second my husband and I arrived we felt at home and truly cared for. Karen is the concierge but she wears many hats. Most importantly she makes you feel at home and that your comfort and happiness truly matter to her. This was a trip to celebrate my husbands birthday and a bottle of champagne...See More
