For many, weekend getaways in New England are synonymous with ski weekends in Vermont or New Hampshire. For others, weekends are for quiet, reflective weekends away with someone you love. While summers on the Cape are commonplace, you might be surprised to learn that Cape Cod is a charming place to spend your weekends throughout the winter, too! That’s especially true when you choose the elevated, adults-only atmosphere of our Bed and Breakfast on Cape Cod.Â
The colder months of winter bring a quieter, more intimate atmosphere to Cape Cod, setting the perfect stage for couples who are looking to escape and reconnect.

The underrated ambiance of Cape Cod transforms into a romantic hideaway in winter. Whether you’re looking to sample the freshest local seafood at charming waterfront restaurants or indulge in a couples’ massage at a nearby spa, there are plenty of ways to relax and reconnect.
