My teenage daughter and I had a lovely stay at Austin's last week; it was my second visit. We were accepted on very short notice and found a cozy clean room and delicious breakfast. The beds were quite comfortable, as i had found last time. Laurence gave us an excellent dinner referral up the street. We hope to be back.

A true bed and breakfast experience - but with extra exceptional hospitality, a beautiful house, great location, and a wonderful english breakfast. Austin's B&B has a super location in down town Bethel, with multiple walking options for dinner and drinks. We arrived in Bethel for a ski weekend and Lawrence did everything possible to make our stay great. He was... More

I stay in many four and five star hotels around the world while traveling on business, so I have fairly high expectations when it comes to accommodations ... Suffice it to say my expectations were exceeded when staying at the Holidae House. When selecting a B&B you want to have that home-away-from-home feeling ... and that's just what we found... More

Laurence and Marcia are awesome! They make you feel as though you are visiting your grandparents. They are very welcoming, and provide excellent service in a cozy atmosphere. By the way, Laurence makes the best scrambled eggs ever! Their breakfast is soo good! We will be back soon.. :)

Great Breakfast, clean rooms and excellent service. Lawrence goes out of his was to ensure you have an enjoyable time. All though the exterior of the building could use a little TLC the interior was well mainained and clean. The B&B is centrally located and walking distance to the restaurants in the area and a short ride to Sunday River... More

Laurence has to be one of the most charming people I've ever met. A wonderful, attentive host that really knows people. We had a wonderful time chatting with him. The inn is old and that oldness shows at times. Laurence warned us that the radiators could be a bit spotty, and sure enough, our room was really warm at one... More

My last review of Austin's was two years ago and I said then that it was worth a second visit. Last time we were in room 2, this time the fabulous room 6. You have slightly more street noise in 6, but it's more fun as well. My husband, the skier, says the only advantage to staying at the resort... More

Everything was great and Laurence is a wonderful friendly host. We stayed at the room 5 on the first floor. The room is cozy, comfortable and clean. The living room has a complimentary drinks and the breakfast is the best in town!

Marcia and Laurence are wonderful hosts. We felt very welcomed and both were very accommodating to our needs. The breakfasts were wonderful and we enjoyed sitting in the living room and having a nightcap. Laurence played his phonograph and and very graciously attended to our needs. We will definitely visit again!

Three of us stayed at this B & B before Christmas and found it to be very clean, comfortable and the hosts are extremely friendly and accommodating. If you like a hearty breakfast and home made baked treats that you don't find anywhere else, It is worthwhile staying here for the breakfast alone. Plus they have really good coffee if... More
