We love Bass Cottage!
My husband and I stayed in the Mint room in Bass Cottage. It was amazing! Beautifully furnished, roomy and very comfortable. We loved sitting in the arm chairs in our room of an afternoon, drinking coffee and eating the delicious complimentary fresh baked goods from the kitchen. Breakfast was outstanding. A savoury and sweet option are offered each morning - we had both and shared. Portions are very generous and the food was absolutely delicious. Love the location too. Tucked in behind the main street in a super quiet location but so close to all the shops, eateries and tours. Staff are super friendly and helpful. On site parking is an added bonus. We travelled all the way from Australia and hope to stay here again one day

This lovely inn is in a fabulous location. Hidden off the Main Street, yet an easy stroll to all the shops and restaurants. Our room was large and extremely comfortable. (The Thyme room in the cottage). Every morning we had a fabulous breakfast served in a beautiful room full of sunshine from all the windows. Our server, Phoebe, was a delight and very attentive. I would recommend this property if you are going to Bar Harbor.
