Fairthorne B&B
Be our guest at the Fairthorne Bed & Breakfast and Cottage, in the heart of the historic, oceanside village of Cape May. The warmth of our romantic retreat welcomes you at the door. Built in 1892 by a whaling captain, this colonial Revival-style inn features leaded stained glass windows and a graceful wraparound veranda appointed with wicker. The Cottage is located next door, a Victorian home built in 1880/1830 and it features 3 guest rooms with fireplaces and onsite parking, a great addition to the Fairthorne.
