Tupper Inn of Cape Cod
-
Tupper Inn overlooks the Mill Creek tidal marsh and is a three-minute walk to downtown museums, pond, restaurants, and shops. Two large bedchambers (one with a secret panel escape route) and a twin chamber are filled with family antiques. Breakfast is in the ancient keeping room.
The large and mysterious Secret Panel bedroom has candles in the fireplace, original artwork, original paneling from the 1700's, sitting areas. From the romantic queen bed one can watch the moon rise. It has a private full bath and a large closet.
The large Seth Pope Chamber has beautiful views of the tidal marsh and Mill Creek, a dressing room and full private bath, romantic candle-filled original fireplace, and antique furnishings. Seth Pope was kicked out of town as a young man. He swore to come back and buy up the town. And he did.
The Secret Panel Chamber is a large airy room with views of the rising sun or moon over the marsh and creek and a view of our neighbor's much-photographed Capt. Sears house and garden. It's furnished with family antiques and oriental rugs. It has a private full bath and a large closet.
The Seth Pope Chamber has original artwork, a red Chinese rug, an antique quilt, an antique sleigh bed and other antique furniture. Watch the sun and moon rise over the marsh and creeks. The suite includes a private full bath that was formerly a bedroom, as well as a dressing room.
Breakfast is at one of two tables in the old keeping room in the oldest part of the house. Coffee, tea, and an elegant breakfast will be served until 10 AM. (Note: The closed door hides the hidden staircase, which once led upstairs.)
The Secret Panel Chamber has a private full bath with wide floorboards. Light a candle and pamper yourself. It's adjacent to the large closet with beach towels.
The full bath of the Seth Pope Chamber is a former bedroom in the oldest section of the house. It has exposed posts and beams, an oriental carpet on the wide floorboards, and a view of the marsh and the neighbors' antique houses.
The Twin Chamber,Tupper Inn, Sandwich, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. The delightful room in the 1699 section of the house overlooks the garden and grounds. A step-up alcove has a rocking chair where you can look out a window or read.
Tupper Inn, 110 Tupper Road, Sandwich, MA, is close to shops, museums, and restaurants. Built by Seth Pope, who had been kicked out of Sandwich in 1670 and swore to "come back and buy up the town." He built the house in 1699 after purchasing most of downtown.

Views of the tidal creek and marsh from the Secret Panel and Seth Pope chambers and the garden from the Twin Chamber. An authentic First Period 1699 colonial. Very short walk to museums, shops, and restaurants. Twenty minute walk to the Boardwalk leading to the beach. The Secret Panel and Seth Pope chambers are large with private full baths (bathtub with shower), romantic candle-filled fireplaces, antique furniture, and beautiful views. Breakfast anytime until 10 A.M. Remove the secret panel and look into the chimney stack escape route. The Seth Pope Chamber: The Ripley's "Believe it or Not" cartoon about Seth Pope, the builder of the house, is here--he was kicked out of Sandwich in 1670. Elegance, history, and comfort.

Staying at the Tupper Inn is both exquisite time travel (the house was built in 1699) and easy to love home-away-from-home comfort. The rooms are generous and tastefully decorated, with modern bathrooms amidst the period detail and New England-y touches, and the public areas are likewise charming and open. Jana (a noted children's book author) is a relaxed and friendly host, and her breakfasts—served with lovely china, silver and settings—were a pleasure to wake up to. Also, you can't beat this location, two minutes from Sandwich's sights—Hoxey House, the Grist Mill, the Pond—and less than 15 minutes from Sagamore Beach. Um, also you're really close to Seafood Sam's and Twin Acres Ice Cream; go easy! Parking aplenty, lots of nice nature around the house, and both interesting and comforting. Highly recommended.
4.8 out of 5A true treasure!
July 18, 2012
From the moment I stepped in the door, my expectations were exceeded. I was greeted warmly and the rooms were clean, comfortable and interesting everywhere you look there is something to gaze at. No details were overlooked in providing a truly memorable experiance. The Innkeeper Jana was a wonderfuly storey teller in relaying the history of the Inn. The food and presentation was wonderful. She made me feel like a princess. I cannot wait to return. Lastley, Jana is an author of childrens books which should not be overlooked while there.

We had a very nice stay at the Tupper Inn. Jana and Bix were excellent hosts and cooks! Breakfast was wonderful! Within walking distance of some great history lessons! Plus it was a great trip for geneology... We are bringing the extended family next time! Thank you!

August 08, 2011
My wife and I spent a truiy memorable 34th wedding anniversary at the Tupper Inn. The rooms were large, very clean, and beautifully decorated. Jana's tour of the historic building and her descriptions of the renovations was very educational and fun. We also enjoyed sitting in the beautiful garden and spotting a hummingbird. We visited the town's wonderful historic sites and then toured the gardens at the Heritage Museum. Topped it off with a fantastic meal in the quiet downtown. All within walking distance.

5 out of 5Fantastic historic inn
July 30, 2011
For our 30th wedding anniversary, my husband and I spent several nights at 110 Tupper in Sandwich on Cape Cod. Jana, the Innkeeper, gave us a tour of the house and its wonderful history. The house has been lovingly restored and still features everything one could desire on a special getaway. The town of Sandwich boasts great antique shops, delicious restaurants and wonderful walking tours, as well as serving as a great "home base" for exploring the Cape.
4.4 out of 5Good location to explore Sandwich
June 20, 2011
The inn is a short walk to the glass museum. Nice walk to beach and around marshes. Be prepared to walk up a steep stairway, but the room at the top is worth the climb. Host and hostess were friendly and the stay enjoyable.

April 11, 2011
This inn is well worth the money. Our stay was great: the rooms were large and beautifully decorated; the bed and furniture were comfortable; the bathroom sparkling. Our innkeepers gave us helpful advice about where to go and what to see, and the inn's location is relaxing and scenic. I wish I could've stayed longer! I just can't say enough good things about this inn.
