Nice place but needs thorough cleaning under bed

Quiet place in beautifully restored farmstead. Convenient to Freeport town. Our upstairs rooms were nicely decorated and comfortable. Breakfast was self with plenty of options. However check in instructions were incorrect with wrong key pad combo for our two rooms. And in both rooms, with high poster beds, underneath the beds needed a thorough cleaning. Socks under one bed, a few other personal items under the other room’s bed plus dust bunnies.

Serene, beautiful farmhouse with modern comforts. The beds were very comfortable and the water pressure was great. Thoughtful touches made it a very comfortable stay. The light breakfast was lovely. Easy check-in/check-out process. Would definitely recommend this B&B!

The Charm of Orchard House

The first time we stayed at Orchard House was for our first anniversary. We knew we would be back. It’s so charming and close to everything. And now they have delicious ice cream!

This is the second time I've stayed here. It's a very charming, old house with tastefully decorated, comfortable rooms. The continental breakfast is very good and served in a cute and cozy dining room. The bed was a bit hard for me, but I'm pretty picky. Just a few minutes drive to the outlet stores and restaurants in town, but far enough away that it's nice and quiet.

Orchard House was very calm, relaxing, clean, and cozy; however, I would not consider it a typical bed and breakfast in a sense that there isn’t a home-cooked breakfast in the morning. They do provide granola and boiled eggs and a very small table with four seat seats, but it’s clear that most people including us go out to eat breakfast which isn’t necessarily a bad thing as there is plenty to do in the area just not what I’m typically used to.

Our room was spacious and nicely decorated. Comfortable bed and great shower. Breakfast was fine- fruit yogurt and hardboiled eggs. No decaf There is no sound proofing if that’s a problem for you. We would have appreciated new towels for second day. Also we were cold one day when ac was on and it was quite cool outside.

This was such a quaint property. The bed was comfortable. The room and home were clean. We stayed in a room with a library of books which would have been wonderful to read if we had more time. Breakfast was fresh and good. This is about a 5 minute drive to shops and restaurants. The town of Freeport was such a wonderful surprise. Good Chinese restaurant (China Rose) and fun LL Bean campus. I would recommend including a hand towel in the bathroom, and updating the shower, and making sure the conditioner/shampoo is full. Note that the property is close to a busy road so you will hear cars going by. Definitely recommend this place!

I had a lovely, one-night stay at the Orchard House. The owner is very friendly and the inn is adorable - beautiful old house with cozy, updated, country-chic decor. Quiet and peaceful with extra comfy bed, delicious breakfast, and convenient to downtown Freeport. It was clean and fresh throughout, but the bathroom could have used a deep cleaning.
