Accommodations & Location
We have a total of 46 accommodations between our three inns, all either next door to each other or one block away. 2 of the inns are beachfront. 1 of the inns is pet-friendly. We are located off of Chase Avenue in Dennis Port, MA on Mid-Cape of Cape Cod. Although we prefer it if guests book with us directly on a first-come basis, we can offer room blocks. The accommodations include:
- 35 basic guest rooms (Either 1 or 2 beds)
- 9 Suites (1 or 2 bedrooms)
- 2 Vacation Homes
An English Garden Bed & Breakfast
Located one block from the beach and other inns, it’s just a 2-minute walk down the road. It has 9 bed & breakfast rooms with one queen or king bed and 2 one bedroom suites that sleep up to four people. An English Garden has a small indoor function room for small receptions or events. 5-6 rooms need to be rented to have an event here.

By the Sea Guests Bed & Breakfast and Suites
By the Sea Guests is the main inn where most weddings and events occur. It is beachfront with the largest white sanded beach on the strip and has an enclosed veranda that overlooks the beach and attaches to the beach and outdoor grass area where a tent can be set up.
It has 12 bed & breakfast rooms with one or two beds, 5 suites, and 2 vacation homes. At least half of the inn (10 accomodations) must be reserved to have an event here, 6 of which need to be located in the bed & breakfast portion due to noise factors.

Also beachfront, the Seashell Motel is more budget-friendly of the three inns but books very quickly in advance due to its maturity. It has 14 basic rooms (one or two beds) and 2 two-bedroom suites. The inn is pet-friendly, perfect for dog-lovers. Seashell is limited in event facilities, but we can host a beach ceremony (8 rooms required to be reserved) and guests may certainly reserve available rooms.

Partial Wedding Planning Services
We can plan and coordinate almost everything for you – from tent and equipment rentals to catering and food services. We can cater to any special theme you have in mind, from a Cape Cod raw bar or clambake to a cocktail party to a casual pizza, barbeque, or fajita party to a dessert & coffee bar to a fancy sit-down dinner with a private at-home chef. We can accommodate almost anything. We’ll even arrange any decorations you provide! We charge an upfront service fee based on number of vendors to be planned and level of involvement.
