Brewster By the Sea Inn
716 Rte. 6A, Brewster, Massachusetts 02631, USA
Why We Like It
This romantic B&B is luxurious and peaceful, with perks like a pool and deluxe breakfast, that similar properties often don’t have. You truly feel like a welcome guest, staying in a friend’s well-appointed home, rather than a paying guest.
Fodor's Expert Review
This restored, beautifully decorated 1846 farmhouse on historic Route 6A is offers a romantic getaway. The Main House features four exquisite guest rooms and a stunning parlor with cathedral ceiling where you can relax by the fire. The separate Orchard House was built in 1988 and includes three spacious, modern guest rooms and two deluxe suites, all with deluxe baths. Weather permitting, a three-course breakfast is served on the patio overlooking a swimming pool and two acres of landscaped gardens.
You Should Know Children must be at least 14 years old.
