Great stay in Carriage House 1. The room was sparkling clean and the grounds are gorgeous. The location is very convenient and easy parking. The owners are so friendly and it is very obvious they care a lot about the guest experience.

Lovely property, yummy breakfasts, bikes
The Tern Inn was perfect for our 3-day stay in West Harwich! Friendly and helpful hosts, delicious breakfasts, bikes for guest use (but no helmets, so bring your own). Our room in one of the cottages was very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!

Fall break in Cape Cod
John and Lisa August were wonderful hosts. It is centrally located on the Cape so that we were a short ride to the other towns. The accommodation was wonderful in a newly renovated room. Extremely comfortable bed with a very spacious dresser and closet for our clothes. We had a small fridge and microwave, coffee maker and multiple charging units to charge our phones/ iPad /kindles etc. Daily snacks in the bowl always available. Complete breakfast every morning that filled our tummies until an early dinner in town at wonderful restaurants. The grounds were nicely kept despite the construction area for a new pool. It is a very relaxing area for afternoon reading after touring in the morning and afternoon. The bathroom is nicely decorated with a lovely shower. We decided to stay in the location for 4 days rather than moving from Provincetown to Sandwich. 10 minute walk to the beach and Oct was a wonderful time to visit the area after the tourists went home. You will be pleasantly surprised how lovely this facility is .

I have to say I have never stayed at a B&B, but this one was amazing. John and Lisa have a wonderful place. Our room was very clean probably and they think of everything you might need. Breakfast was very tasty and they accommodate people with allergies. Thank you for making our first B&B experience so wonderful.
