Victorian Luxury In Cape May
Amidst all this Victorian luxury, we haven't forgotten modern amenities. All of our rooms and suites feature private baths and several include refrigerators for cooling your beverages for the beach. Several rooms also feature fireplaces and whirlpool tubs. All of our bedrooms and suites are air-conditioned.

Victorian Bed & Breakfast
Your hearty Victorian breakfast is served from antique silver, crystal and Royal china. The aroma of freshly brewing coffee and home baked breads wakes you up while quiches, crepes, and eggs entrees fortify you for the day. We offer beach chairs and towels if you're heading for the surf. We offer directions and advice if you're looking for antiques. Perhaps best of all, we offer a beautifully restored parlor and library and a large wraparound porch if you're planning on doing absolutely nothing.
