Close to Dock Square and Well Behaved Dogs Welcome with Prior Approval!

Guest Quarters on a gorgeous 9 acre property just 1.5 miles from Dock Square in the seaside town of Kennebunkport.

A Romantic Vacation Awaits You On Arundel Farm, an historic property just minutes from ocean beaches, Dock Square and the Cape Arundel Golf Course.

Up to 2 dogs are welcome with prior permission! Dogs can play and do their business in the large, fenced in horse paddock in rear of the property near the far barn. Although, we love other animals we only accept dogs and no other type of pet as some guests have severe allergies to cats and birds.

You'll think you've stepped back in time to an historic village when you visit stunning Arundel Farm. Discover your unique and private guest lodgings on a pastoral 9 acre setting right near the ocean and convenient to all area attractions!

While our historic home was built in 1760, your private and spacious guest quarters are on the entire upper floor of the carriage house built in 2000. Your accommodations include a large, high ceiling living room with cupola skylight, dining area and well equipped kitchen, private balcony with bistro table and chairs. Guest quarters include a lovely, light filled queen bedroom with luxury linens, and spacious bathroom with shower. In the Living Room the Crate and Barrel Sleep Sofa provides extra room for visiting guests. There is also a washer and dryer for your convenience. There are AC units in the master bedroom and in the main living area (to cool the living room, dining room and kitchen.) In Autumn radiant heating in floors make it very cozy.

The serene grounds include the historic main house, carriage house, historic 1930s Jelly House, scenic far barn, natural spring-fed pond and charming gazebo. Enjoy beautiful vistas with gardens and stone walls.

Arundel Farm is located just 1.5 mile from Dock Square and all shops, restaurants and art galleries in Kennebunkport and Kennebunk. The property is just a short drive to beautiful Cape Porpoise. For sun and fun, several glorious beaches are right nearby including: Goose Rocks, Gooches, Mothers, Colony and Kennebunkport Beach.

Our property is just around the block from The Cape Arundel Golf Course, a semi-private club along the shores of the Kennebunk River. Book your own tee time in advance and golf where many U.S. Presidents and other dignitaries have played.

The Farm is conveniently located to many other area attractions including Whale Watch Trips, Sailing Trips, Deep Sea Fishing, Horse and Carriage Rides and Horseback Riding, Kayaking, Bike Rentals, Antique Hunting, Summer Music Theater at Vinegar Hill ... all just minutes form your guest house.

During your stay, remember to take a drive along Ocean Avenue to see the gorgeous homes along Maine's rocky coast. Bring bikes and explore portions the Eastern Trail bike path which runs 22 miles from Kennebunk to Portland. We are a short car ride into town, beaches, antique malls and all points of interest in Kennebunkport and Kennebunk.

After a busy day, return to peaceful Arundel Farm and enjoy a cool drink on your own private balcony or stroll the grounds and sit in our beautiful gazebo overlooking the pond and far barn. Relax before you get ready for an evening out on the town. There are an amazing assortment of great local restaurants.

We opened Arundel Farm Gallery in July 2016 on the first floor of the carriage house featuring the works of many local and national artist*s. You are welcome to join your hosts Julie and Paul for any gallery events during your stay. Please check our website for more information and schedule of events. We also offer summer workshops in our Far Barn, taught by several of our gallery artists! Visit the gallery website to learn about current workshops.

Besides summertime, visit Arundel Farm in the autumn to enjoy the spectacular foliage in this wonderful New England location. Arundel Farm is just 30 minutes from Portland, Maine ... 40 minutes from Portsmouth, New Hampshire and 1.5 hours from Boston, Massachusetts. We are also just 1.5 hours from the Lakes Region of New Hampshire including Lake Winnipesaukee ... a fabulous day trip!

With prior approval dogs are welcome to join you on your very special vacation (limited to 2) and, although we love all animals, no other type of pet is allowed in our carriage house apartment as some guests have severe allergies to cats, birds, etc.

Feel free to call Julie and Paul if you have any other questions about our accommodations. Please note that the carriage house guest quarters are on the upper floor of the carriage house and, unfortunately, is not wheel chair accessible or for those with issues walking up and down stairs. The property is also not suitable for small children as we have a pond on property.

Beautiful, comfortable and cozy
This property it beautiful inside and out. The grounds are the epitome of Maine! and the apartment is beautifully decorated and very well equipped for cooking. Hosts Julie and Paul are excellent hosts and always available, although everything we needed or wanted was provided in the unit. We do hope to return some day.

Cape Arundel gem
Very charming, rustic place. It was perfect for 2 people and our dog. The grounds were beautiful with a small pond. We enjoyed the proximity to the Port. Julie and Paul were very nice!

Great stay close to town
We had a boat docked in town, a dog and bikes. It was great to stay in a comfortable place at night where we had room to spread out and easy access to town.

Wonderful property
The carriage house was absolutely lovely. Location is handy to Kennebunkport shops and restaurants and within a couple of miles of the beaches. But best of all, the accommodations are modern- spotless- on a stunning property...and the hosts are incredible. This is a five star place for sure!!

Cute, comfortable apartment with friendly hosts!
The apartment is clean, pleasant and comfortable. The hosts were very welcoming and invited us to an art show opening at their gallery. There is a big field for the dogs to use in the back of the property.

Perfection in Perfect Maine!
We could not have enjoyed our stay at Arundel Farm more! Julie and Paul are the consummate hosts! They have thought of everything you may need before you think of it yourself. The carriage house is spacious, spotless, and special. And the bed is as comfortable as any I have ever had. As if that wasn't enough we adored getting to know Julie and Paul. They are living the life and we felt truly lucky to borrow a little slice of it for our perfect week in Maine. Already dreaming of returning one day....
