Get away from the hustle and bustle of your every day life. Come and relax at one of Cape Cod’s most romantic and secluded country Inns – quietly tucked away on a country road, but close enough to all the attractions that make the Cape so special. Walk the ‘Outer Cape’ beaches, listening to the soothing sound of the waves, lapping on Cape Cod Bay or crashing at the National Seashore. Partake in some of the finest dining that the Cape has to offer, beginning here each day with a gourmet breakfast served to you at your own private table.

The inn was built in 1830 for Henry Harding, a renowned whaling captain. In the early nineteen hundreds it became a gentleman’s farm, known as Whalewalk Farm. With a cow and horse still living in what is now the Salt Box Cottage, the farm was purchased in 1953 and turned into an inn. Since that time it has been authentically restored and creatively redecorated. The common rooms are filled with the Innkeeper’s extensive Waterford Crystal collection, 19th century country antiques from England and France, fresh flowers, and oriental rugs for a warm welcome to start your stay.

Awaken to the aroma of fresh brewed coffee, sizzling bacon, one of our many delightful pastry items, and a different entrée every day. Dietary needs are no problem, if we know in advance. View the gardens on our bricked patio, while enjoying your first meal of the day. On those cooler days, breakfast can be enjoyed on our Farmer’s porch or in the dining room.

After a day of exploring, bicycling, swimming, and shopping, end your afternoon with an in-room massage to remove any tensions that you brought to the Cape. Book your date and time when you make your room reservation. Or, take time out to enjoy nature from the view in the gazebo. Join the innkeepers for a hors d’oeuvre hour, and decide which restaurant best suits your mood for the day.
