~About The Inn
Nestled back from the road and shaded by two ancient maple-trees, the Captain Tom Lawrence House Bed and Breakfast is an intimate inn for those who appreciate fine accommodations and warm hospitality in a beautiful and historic setting.
The Captain Tom Lawrence House reflects the warmth and charm of an elegant private home. With its circular stairwell, hardwood floors, and high ceilings, the house, which is listed on the National Historic Register, remains much as it was when Captain Tom Lawrence lived here more than a century ago.
Located just a short walk from the main street in the historic Village of Falmouth, Cape Cod, the inn, which was originally a whaling captain’s home, offers a blend of New England tradition, old world charm and convenient access for exploring the entire Cape and the nearby islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket.
We invite you to make our inn your home away from home, and experience the warmth and hospitality of this historic seaside village. Whatever the occasion - honeymoon, anniversary, or a weekend get-away - the Captain Tom Lawrence House is for you.
The inn’s six guestrooms are carefully decorated in soft colors and designer linens and furnished with a variety of antiques. All have private baths, cable television and refrigerators for your convenience. Relax in one of our spacious corner guestrooms, with high four-poster queen-sized canopied beds. Or, perhaps you would prefer the Captain’s room with its graceful lace coronet above the king-sized bed.
Make yourself at home in our air-conditioned inn with its spacious
sitting room, accented with comfortable furnishings and a variety of antique accessories. Daily newspapers, magazines, and plenty of
information about local interests will acquaint you with the area so you can make the most of your stay in Falmouth.
Honeymooners, small families, or anyone looking for peace and privacy also have the option of staying in our spacious fully furnished, centrally air-conditioned apartment.
Breakfast is thoughtfully planned and prepared by your hosts. You\'ll enjoy fresh fruit and a variety of creative entrees such as whole wheat Belgium waffles served with seasonal fruit syrups - the inn\'s specialty. Crepes, omelets or breakfast stratas, brimming with fruit or vegetables, are only some of the fine recipes that you will enjoy before a day exploring Cape Cod and the Islands. Coffee cakes, scones, and muffins - baked fresh daily - complement the sit-down breakfast.

~FALMOUTH ON CAPE COD
The Falmouth area offers unique shops, entertainment, nature preserves, golf and tennis within minutes of our inn, but it is the attraction of the sea that always provides a memorable and enjoyable visit. Sparkling, sandy beaches are accessible within a mile of the inn. For a different perspective, bicycle, jog, or take a relaxing stroll along the Shining Sea Bikeway - within only feet of the inn. The Bikeway winds its way through beautiful pined woods and along open ocean vistas to Woods Hole, where you may visit the National Marine Fisheries Aquarium, the oldest research aquarium in the nation, and the Exhibit Center of the world-renowned Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. Take a day cruise to Martha\'s Vineyard or Nantucket on one of many ferries that regularly leave from the nearby piers.
Falmouth offers visitors a perfect location from which to spend a day exploring the entire Cape. Browse the myriad antique shops along historic Route 6A, or enjoy a day of sun at the magnificent beaches of the National Seashore. Take a trip to watch the whales frolic in their ocean habitat or photograph the famed sand dunes of Provincetown.
Whether you spend the day exploring the Cape, enjoying the spectacular beaches and recreation, or taking part in the many local special events, in the evening you will find an assortment of dining and entertainment just minutes away. The region boasts a unique variety of fine and nationally recognized dining choices and, of course, excellent seafood abounds.
