Carol was wonderful. She asked about dietary restrictions and went out of her way to make sure that we could enjoy the breakfast and snacks even though we’re gluten free. She was extremely nice and helpful. The room itself was lovely- clean, quiet, had plenty of places to sit and relax and a small balcony with a table and chairs. The bed was comfortable. We would stay here again.

Great choice after a Boston work trip
Everything about it was great. Very friendly and knowledgeable hosts about places to eat and do in the area. Great location, especially not being directly on the main road.

The Captain Farris House was an amazing getaway location! My husband and I went away for 2 nights and loved everything about the Captain Farris House. Carol and Jeff were exceptional hosts who made sure our stay was pleasurable. The breakfasts were delicious and Carol did a fantastic job at making sure my gluten free options were to my liking, which they were. It was a first time stay at a bed and breakfast and we’re not sure we’d go anywhere else as this one was fantastic! We will be back for sure!

We had a wonderful experience at this property. The Inn itself is beautiful and has all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. The owners Carol and Jeff were warm,welcoming and always made us feel at home. The breakfast was always delicious and extra snacks/coffee/teas available at any time. The location was very convenient for getting to the ferry and surrounding areas on the Cape. Will definitely return and highly recommend!

We arrived early on a very rainy early afternoon and were accommodated with an early check-in (which was a very nice surprise to us because it was clearly stated that check-ins occurred only after 3pm). Thank you!! A very beautiful and cozy B&B with AMAZING owners/hosts (Carol & Jeff) and their staff! They all made us feel at home; very welcoming! Spacious, clean private room…with spacious, nice and clean bathroom. TV/DVD in our room (but only wished for a smartTV to pull up our Netflix on that rainy first day). Morning breakfasts (and afternoon snacks) were outstanding and delicious! The grounds are beautiful with many areas to sit outside and enjoy, if so desired! Would definitely stay again and recommend! Just lovely!

Can't rave enough about the inn keepers and tnn!
The inn keepers are warm, friendly,talented, hard working, fabulous cooks and present a very clean, beautifully decorated and comfortable inn. Our stay of 3 nights was beyond expectations. A gem on Cape Cod. The breakfasts are outstanding. Every detail is well thought out and presented beautifully.

Cape Cod Oasis
I just recently stayed at Captain Farris and it was wonderful!!! Our host Carol and her staff were friendly and made sure we had a wonderful stay. The breakfast was the best I had had at a B&B. There was always soft drinks and home made snacks available. Our room was more than adequate in size and very clean. It was a large property that allowed for relaxing outside if you so desired. It was centrally located on the south cape and was perfect! I would stY here again when I venture back to Cape Cod.
