Briar Lea Inn and the adjoining pub The Jolly Drayman are run by a great couple (English wife and American husband) - we stayed next door at the Norseman, so can't comment on the accommodation, but can vouch for the Jolly Drayman's food and friendly atmosphere. The beer's good, too!

The Norseman Inn is best known for its winter accommodation close to the Sunday River ski area, but we stayed in June and found it a good place to stay.

The rooms are spotless and spacious (we were in the motel) and the facilities are very good: guest laundry, games room, and vending machines in the lobby.

Breakfast was included at the weekend, but seems to be available all the time during winter.

Sunday River is a New Englander's secret. It's an old style ski resort made up of 8 peaks with 131 trails and glades to suit all abilities. Loads of tree skiing and unless you go on a peak weekend during college intersession, you have the luxury of wonderful snow, beautiful scenery and virtually empty slopes. You can stay on the slopes or stay in Bethel, a quaint, traditional Maine town 2 km away. And if you decide to visit during the summer Sunday River boast a fantastic golf course too!
