Our Luxury Inn Is A Great Base For Your Cape Cod Adventure

March 11th, 2012 by Mike

walking on the beach at sunrise - Cape CodOkay, let us assume that you are coming to Cape Cod for the first time this summer. One thing’s for sure, you’ll have a hard time deciding which area to stay in, as it can be so difficult doing the necessary research and then of course choosing your accomodation. We, like anyone else who lives Mid Cape on The Olde Kings Highway, can at least help make your decision making process a more informed one, so here are just a few advantages of staying for example, in our historic village of Yarmouth Port.

Tranquility, natural beauty and rich history can all be savored during any time spent here. Our guests can spend time away from their cars enjoying  Cape Cod Bay beaches, Grays Boardwalk, the old Wharf and the nature trails that abut our inn’s two acres of landscaped grounds.

The Inn At Cape Cod made an impact in local history as The Sears Hotel in the early 19th century, providing accomodation for weary stagecoach travellers. The village has more than fifty former sea captains houses as well as The Capt. Bangs Hallett’s museum to look at, and the Edward Gorey House Museum lies on the opposite side of the village green.

Spring Is Here On Cape Cod: Makes You Dream Of Days to Come

March 5th, 2012 by Mike

road_trip-9687.jpgSimian HWC#0453 Cape Cod HumpbackCape Cod sunsetWe just drove home along the beautiful historic Route 6a, and saw the first signs of spring: daffs popping up and carpets of  lilac colored lawns changed from green. It made us think of the days and months ahead when the weather becomes warm and conducive to outdoor living. We spend as much time as we possibly can by the ocean, with friends or just the two of us, eating lobster rolls from Sesuit Harbor Cafe or cones of home-made ice cream from Smugglers in Dennis. We just can’t wait for those heady days to come by once again. In the meantime, here are some photos to make you think of Cape Cod in the summer. Hope to see you soon! In the meantime, perhaps we can tempt you further with our “Spring Fling” package.

New Terminal Opened At Cape Cod’s Airport

February 18th, 2012 by Mike

First Air 727-100Wow – we just had a tour of the new airport facility for Cape Cod, and we were really impressed with it. Great news is that you still have that nostalgic walk across the tarmac, but NO, you cannot fly to Sydney or Singapore direct! But all in all it is a great improvement, and offers travelers comfort and space, as well as refreshments and car rentals. Lots of tourist information will be available as well, so arrivals will get help if they haven’t already planned their stay.

Presidents’ Day In Cape Cod Should Inspire Us All

February 14th, 2012 by Mike

Happy 200th Birthday, Mr. Lincoln (Text of Gettysburg Address)Another year has passed since we wrote about this great country’s presidents, and it is with respect and awe that we include ourselves amongst those wishing to commemorate all American presidents, past and present, this coming Presidents’ Day.  We have renewed our studies on this country’s history and each time we are more fascinated and inspired by what we read. You may have noticed that we have another reason the be interested: the inn’s likeness to the White House! Guests love the idea that they are staying in a “mini” White House, although we have to say that we probably cannot compete with the opulence inside the building! If we have piqued your interest in staying at the inn, please check out our great winter deals for more information. We do hope to welcome you here soon.

For A Most Memorable Anniversary, Why Not Try Our Inn At Cape Cod Bay.

November 27th, 2011 by Mike

Try one of The Inn At Cape Cod,s romantic packages

Romantic Anniversaries

With so many anniversaries being celebrated of late by our guests here, we might have been forgiven for letting one or two of our own slip by unnoticed. As far as our guests are concerned, it would be hard for them to find a more suitable location for any celebration, than one of the historic inns along Cape Cod Bay. The serene natural beauty takes some beating, but if you add to that, the enormous wealth of things to see and do and of course the first class restaurants and taverns you can walk to from our inn, the formula is irresistable.

We celebrated the fifth anniversary of our arrival in the USA and acquisition of  The Inn At Cape Cod towards the end of October – it feels every bit as exciting five years on, to be in this wonderful country! That we finally ended up on Cape Cod, with so many fine US destinations to choose from, was simply an affair of the heart, and our beautiful building, the icing on the cake. And yes, we managed our own little celebration one evening with a nice French couple, who were celebrating their 5 night honeymoon here at our Inn.

If you are unable to find one of our packages to tempt you, why not give us a call, tell us what you are looking for, and we’ll very quickly put a package together just for you. In the meantime, my lovely partner and I shall continue our own celebration of living our dream.

Festive Season Delights In Cape Cod’s Historic District

November 15th, 2011 by Mike

Historic Christmas Stroll On Cape CodThere can be few areas of the western world that can rival the beauty and animated landscape of Cape Cod Bay during the Festive Season. Mile upon mile of historic pastel colored clapboard compliments the stunning natural beauty and gently lapping waters of  this thirty mile long conservation area. Residents proudly adorn their homes and businesses with wreaths, candles and fairy lights, creating a warming and spectacular drive along Route 6A.

Well the good news is that you can come and share this occasion, staying at one of the fine historic bed and breakfasts in the heart of this winter wonderland. Many are currently offering value added Festive Packages, ourselves included, at affordable prices that will not disappoint.

We are hoping that your research may lead you irresistibly to Yarmouth Port. Our historic sea-side village, which has many hidden treasures to offer you such as its museums, art galleries and fifty or so sea-captain’s houses, also boasts three of the Cape’s best restaurants, each one offering a different style of cuisine.

A stroll along the local romantic Grays beach and boardwalk, especially to witness the sunset, can of course sharpen the appetite in more ways than one. However, if you are looking for a bit of festive fun, the Yarmouth Christmas Stroll set for December 4th is an event not to be missed, followed by the lighting of the Christmas Tree on the Village Green.

Before you bid your sad farewell, why not spend some time looking for unique Christmas gifts. Our own favorite gift shop is Peach Tree Designs, a five minute walk from our Inn. It never fails to inspire one’s imagination. And if you have time on your way off the Cape, visit Mashpee Commons shopping village, where you’ll find some interesting gift shops.

Cape Cod Restaurant Week – May 16-22, 2011

May 17th, 2011 by cassels

Cape Cod Restaurant Week brings the best out of the Cape's chefsWe all enjoy going out to dinner, and this week anyone who visits Cape Cod is in for a real treat. A total of 46 restaurants across all of Cape Cod will participate in the semi-annual Restaurant Week, offering 3 or 4 course exhibition menus with prix fixe pricing of just $25 – $35 per person. So you get to experience the creativity of some of New England’s best chefs at incredible prices! At the Inn, we are very lucky to be within walking distance of two of the participating restaurants: The Old Yarmouth Inn, just two minutes walk  from us, and The Lyric, only ten minutes walk away. Both are personal favorites of ours, and we certainly don’t need much encouragement to dine at either one. Alternatively, you might consider The Naked Oyster, yet another favorite of ours, and only ten minutes by car in Hyannis Main Street. If that’s not being spoilt for choice we don’t know what is.

So why not combine a stay at the inn, (taking advantage of our great May deals) with a couple of wonderful meals at one of the many participating restaurants. Hope to see you soon!

Whales Return To Cape Cod Waters

May 4th, 2011 by cassels

The Magnificent Right Whale

The Magnificent Right Whale in Cape Cod Bay

It’s so heartening to learn that the whale population is back in Cape Cod waters – it heralds the start of another wonderful summer season. Since the word got out last week of sightings all along the northen and eastern coasts of the Cape, our guests have taken the opportunity to drive along to see what it was all about  – and none came back disappointed! Even the rare Right Whales are back, in greater numbers than last year. That will be a huge relief for the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), whose dedicated local staff and volunteers work tirelessly to protect and rescue these, and many other, marine creatures. But you don’t need to take the chance of not seeing the whales, just get yourself on an organised whale-watching excursion. Our local one, Hyannis Whale Watcher is just 10 minutes from the inn and they will start running on May 16, 2011. But if you can’t wait till then, why not take the Dolphin Fleet out of Provincetown,
