An Unforgettable Weekend Getaway On The Cape

Updated:

For many, weekend getaways in New England during the winter 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. 

The colder winter months bring a quieter, more intimate atmosphere to Cape Cod, setting the perfect stage for couples looking to escape and reconnect. Brisk walks along the beach are anything but cliche here and are just as lovely as cozy afternoons curled up in front of the fire. Of course, there are plenty more things to do in Cape Cod throughout the winter, too. Above all else, though, winter on Cape Cod is all about slowing down and savoring life’s most simple pleasures. 

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. Explore the Cape’s winter hiking trails, take a scenic drive along the coast, or simply curl up with a book and a glass of wine at our boutique Bed and Breakfast on Cape Cod. The choice is yours, but it won’t take long to see why couples choose us for their weekend getaways in New England. Book your winter getaway today!
