Smartly and traditionally furnished common areas—including the high-ceiling parlor, the formal dining room, and the wraparound porch—are a major draw to this dignified 1825 Greek Revival house. The inn also has an offsite four-bedroom cottage available for weekly rentals about five minutes away.

room

Guest rooms in both the main building and the carriage house are filled with a mix of old-world romantic charm and modern amenities; each is uniquely decorated, and some have whirlpool tubs and fireplaces. The cottage is contemporary, with a casual Cape Cod feel.

Bathrooms vary. Some have small shower stalls and a couple have tubs and showers. All are stocked with all-natural bath products.

The Cranberry Room in the Main House features an old-fashioned claw foot tub, ideal for a long soak.

LOCATION

Getting Around

You’ll need a car to get to beaches and many attractions, though there are a few restaurants within walking distance.

Restaurants

Ihaho (6-minute walk) offers outstanding Japanese fare, with a focus on fresh seafood, including salmon, tuna and other raw fish. Pain D'Avignon (11-minute drive) is a lovely French bakery and bistro, with classic dishes like steak frittes and escargot, as well as lots of local seafood. The pastries are divine!

Bars

The Tavern at the Old Yarmouth Inn (11-minute walk), with its wood-paneled walls and fireplace is a cozy place to get a drink. The Barnstable Tavern’s (6-minute drive) outdoor patio is a great place to enjoy a glass of wine and watch the world go by.

WHY WE LIKE IT

Elegant and beautifully decorated, the Liberty Hill Inn is charming and comfortable, but what makes it stand out is the personality and warmth of owners, Kris and John, who go out of their way to make guests feel welcome. A fruit basket await guests in their rooms, breakfasts are delicious, and the inn is spotless. Many guests are repeat visitors and wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else in the area.
