| EASTHAM - Cape Cod, Massachusetts |
| |
| Located between Orleans and Provincetown, there are golden
sandy public beaches on the Atlantic - Nauset Beach - and on Cape Cod
Bay - First Encounter Beach. This was where the Pilgrim Fathers
first met the Nauset Indians in 1620. The National Seashore Visitor
Center is well worth a visit and explains the formation of Cape Cod,
its animals and plants, good for a pit stop if you are biking on the
Cape Cod Rail Trail. This is a 26-mile walking and biking trail
that stretches from Dennis through Eastham to Wellfleet and passes alongside
salt marshes, fresh water ponds and groves of trees; bikes can be hired
in Brewster. In 1903 Marconi transmitted the world's first wireless
message from nearby. |

This
old B & B dates back to 1690 when it was built as a sea captain's
home. It is situated on two acres of landscaped gardens with
garden patio, lawns and trees and is set back from the road behind
a large hedge. Eastham provides an excellent touring base for
the outer Cape, visits to Provincetown, whale watching, the nature
reserve of the National Seashore is nearby, there are miles of bike
paths and nature trails, and sandy beaches on both Cape Cod Bay and
the Atlantic. There is a good selection of restaurants in the
area. The inn has a selection of bedrooms that reflect
the size and aspect of the room, decor and furnishings, from Standard
rooms with queen beds or 2 singles, each with a private bath, to Deluxe
rooms. Luxury bedrooms are larger and some have two person whirlpool
tubs, four poster beds and TVs. There are two Luxury suites that
