Creative Caring Conscientious
These are the three attributes that define the basis for our success.
You want a property that is not your ordinary B& B, that shows creativity in its concept and design with concern for the environment, with proprietors who genuinely care for the guest’s experience and are conscientious about promises made and promises kept.
Thistledown Farm is the creative vision of Penny Johnston, proprietor. A serial entrepreneur, 20 years ago she searched the Maine coast for the perfect property, barn and location to develop a small, but unique gathering place for others to enjoy. Today, it includes a restored and repurposed 1850’s hand hewn post and beam barn, sheep shed cottage, and private apartment surrounded by stone terraces and walls, flower gardens, and an expansive lawn. Three glamping rental tents in the woods complete the unique setting. Recently, Thistledown Farm acquired a nearly adjacent abandoned farm property where Penny is in the process of making a private waterfront preserve for walking and paddling to the sea.
For all the things we try to be these are the things we are not.
