No
other accommodation affords you the advantage of a downtown location
near the principal points of interest, beaches and train, as well as
the feeling of tremendous open space. Beach Knoll offers one to four
room accomodations, most with panoramic views.

1740 historic inn overlooking Back Beach on beautiful Sandy Bay. A
basis for Ruth Holberg's children's book, "The Smugglers of Sandy
Bay"
The
Beach Knoll overlooks Back Beach and the beauty of the famous Sandy
Bay Harbor of Refuge. One block toward Main Street is Front Beach, a
family beach protected by a lifeguard. Another block beyond are the
galleries, restaurants and shops of Rockport Village and Bearskin Neck.
Our north side faces another open area where summer Sunday band concerts
and the July 4th celebrations are held. Ours is the best vantage point.
In
addition, the Beach Knoll Inn serves as the perfect base for day trips,
by car or train, to nearby Boston, Gloucester, Salem, Marblehead, Newburyport,
Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts. Popular shopping and recreational
activities in scenic southeastern New Hampshire and Maine are only an
hour's drive north.
Imagine
the soothing ocean sounds, sea fog rolling up from the beach, beautiful
sunrises over the horizon, kayaks and yachts of all sizes skimming gracefully
by. Night brings the moon's brilliance and thousands of stars shimmering
across the water. And all this can be seen and heard right from your
room at the Beach Knoll Inn.
