Ashley Manor, Barnstable, Massachusetts
To experience Ashley Manor is to discover a very special place, one where you'll want to stay a while and return to again and again. Located in the heart of Cape Cod's historic district, this circa 1699 colonial inn reflects the elegance and romance of an all-but-forgotten way of life. Beautifully restored, Ashley Manor quietly blends the amenities of your comfort expectations with the grace and dignity of an earlier time.
Originally built in 1699, Ashley Manor has seen many additions over the centuries. Evidence of its age and history can be seen in the wide board flooring, wood usually reserved for the king during colonial times; huge open-hearth fireplaces, one with a bee-hive oven; hand-glazed wainscoting throughout the inn; and a secret passage connecting the upstairs and downstairs ---thought to be a hiding place for Tories during the Revolutionary War.

The six bedchambers or suites are carefully decorated and appointed to reflect the 17th century details of the inn. Each is a spacious, private refuge. All feature modern baths, all but one enjoy working fireplaces, and the suites have large whirlpool tubs.
Each room has its own special charm...some feature New England shuttered windows, or colorful old Nantucket speckled floors, or canopy and pencil post beds. All include those lovely small touches that reveal the innkeepers caring attention to detail and your comfort: imported bedside chocolates, the finest soaps, shampoos and lotions, and in-room coffee and tea service for the early riser. Every room has a comfortable sitting area for two, where you can enjoy that cup of tea, or perhaps a good book.
And for guests who are reluctant to cut all ties to the 21st century, Ashley Manor has in-room telephones with data ports, and televisions are also available upon request. All of our guest rooms are air-conditioned! A full, gourmet breakfast is served each morning.
