Black Friar Inn

The Black Friar Inn, tucked on a side street overlooking a parking lot, is a yellow-shingled structure with quirky pediments and a somewhat eccentric air. It offers decent value. A former owner "collected" interiors and installed them throughout the home, among them a replica of a namesake pub in London with elaborate carved-wood paneling (now a common room), stamped-tin walls (now in the breakfast room), and a doctor's office (now a guest room). Rooms are carpeted and furnished in a mix of antiques; most are smallish, though the big suite features nice paneling, a sofa, wingback chair, and gas fireplace. Other rooms sport such touches as rose-tinted stained-glass windows, brass beds, and a mini-spiral staircase. The least expensive units are two garret rooms on the third floor, each of which has a detached private bathroom down the hall.

Facilities:
Sea-kayaking and fly-fishing tours (for a fee)
