" AN ELEGANT INN ON GLOUCESTER HARBOR, 45 MINUTES NORTHEAST OF BOSTON "
The Inn contains suites of rooms, and can easily accomodate a honeymoon couple or a family with children. Each suite has a private bath, a television with VCR and cable, a telephone air conditioning, scenic views, and a mini-kitchen fitted with toaster, microwave, coffee-maker and small refrigerator. We do not serve meals as such, but your refrigerator is stocked, and we have our very own "Muffin Bunny" (named Samuel) who delivers baskets of pastries to deserving guests in the middle of the night, leaving them on a hook outside the door. With its view past the famous "Man at the Wheel" statue over Gloucester's outer harbor, the Inn is within walking distance of beaches, parks, museums, galleries, shops and restaurants, and frequently has the best view of Gloucester's parades, fireworks and other celebrations. Building Amenities Include:
In Gloucester and around Cape Ann, you can find some very nice beaches. Good Harbor Beach (pictured above) and Wingaersheek Beach are nice and well-suited for families with small children. You can also take tours by land and sea, and go on whale watches and deep-sea fishing expeditions. With the area's history of attracting artists, art galleries abound, and there are some excellent museums and public art, such as the famous statue of "The Man at the Wheel" in front of our Inn and the statue of Fitz Hugh Lane pictured here, on the lawn of Lane's house. There is a good collection of paintings by this prominent Gloucester artist in The Cape Ann Historical Museum. An important piece of local history, the Schooner Adventure, is being carefully restored and preserved. Other favorites are Hammond Castle and Beauport. There is theater through the summer at The Gloucester Stage Company, and dance at The Windhover Performing Arts Center. A very good local dance company, "Dancers Courageous", performs works tied to Gloucester history. The Cape Ann Symphony performs frequently in Gloucester, including some very nice concerts in Stage Fort Park just across the cut. Of course there are plenty of good places to eat, and many of them are an easy walk from the Inn. Come visit us on beautiful Cape Ann, Masscahusetts.
