Perfect B&B experience!

It was not only our first time visiting Cape Cod , but also our first time staying at a bed and breakfast and honestly, it couldn’t have been any more perfect! Carol and Jeff and staff made you feel like you were at home! Breakfast was creative and delicious! The atmosphere was so tranquil and relaxing. They even provided us with some great tips on sites to see and restaurants to visit This place is 5 stars! From the quality of the bedding and towels to the 5 star touches like homemade cookies and truffles on the bed! Thank you so much for all you did for us! We hope to be back next year! May God Bless you all❤️

The Captain Farris House is a beautiful place to stay. We had an amazing time. The room was beautiful and clean. Carol, the owner, was so kind and welcoming. The property is gorgeous and it’s very conveniently located to most attractions on the cape. The breakfast each day was incredible and the staff was super friendly and helpful with great tips for getting around. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, beautiful place to stay in Cape Cod.

Perfect B&B

We had a wonderful stay! The house is lovely and you can clearly tell that every detail has been carefully thought out. We loved the breakfast every morning, the delicious baked goods in the evening and the beautiful decorations throughout the house. Carol is an amazing host and she will make sure you have everything you need to have the best time - book this place - you won’t regret it!

The Captain Farris House was awesome. They genuinely care for their guests. They made sure we had everything we needed. Out of our 3 nights we stayed we only got to enjoy 1 breakfast. That breakfast was very good. The 2nd day we had to leave early and weren’t able to be there for the breakfast. On our last day we had to leave early and they made us a breakfast to go. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent Experience!

I had never stayed at a bed and breakfast and Carol and Jeff made my first experience a truly wonderful and memorable experience. At the end of our stay, both hosts felt like family and will be missed. The service is excellent, the breakfast great and the building itself really charming. Would gladly stay again. So glad I was able to experience this!

Wonderful, comfortable stay

We stayed here 11 years ago and it still has the same charm! Carol and Jeff & team were great hosts, so welcoming and a delicious breakfast each morning. Aunt Liddys room was really spacious amd comfortable with lots of character. We loved the private entrance, own staircase and deck. More great memories from Captain Farris House!
