About this cottage rental
Beautiful cottage on Cape Cod, a wonderful experience, located in an area free from crowds, but with close proximity to all that the Cape and Islands have to offer. Come and relax with a glass of wine as you sit on your patio in your charming cottage. Located less than 5 minutes from Route 6, you are in a central location with easy access to Hyannis and the beautiful towns and beaches of the Mid Cape area, yet also close in either direction to the Outer Cape, the Lower Cape or the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. Your cottage getaway is tucked away at the rear of our property lot in West Barnstable, Massachusetts in a lush garden setting. You will be less than a 4 minute drive from Sandy Neck Beach which includes 4,700 acres of beaches, dunes, maritime forests, and marshes filled with many recreational opportunities. Located in a gorgeous and peaceful countrylike setting across from an old blueberry farm, our cottage has been totally and lovingly very recently renovated and redecorated with new appliances and furnishings. The cottage has a large living room/dining room, kitchen area and bathroom on the first floor. Sliding doors lead outside to your private garden patio facing the woods. On the second floor is a very large bedroom with twin beds which can be put together to form a king sized bed, if desired. (bedding for either twin beds or king bed will be provided.) (Our friends from St. Remy de Provence, France loved our beautiful and special cottage when they visited us for three and a half weeks last summer. They made numerous day trips to various locations around New England during their stay with us and are looking forward to a return trip soon!) A book of suggestions for local excursions, attractions and restaurants is available for your use to help make your stay a magical one!

Oh my, I really don’t want to tell the truth in this review as we want this as our very own special spot in the Cape, and we don’t want to share! That said we must be fair to the wonderful couple who own this sweet little Cottage on the Cape, as they deserve nothing but the best.
Simply stated you are unlikely to find something nicer on the Cape at this sensible price point that feels so authentically Cape Cod. Yes it is small, but it feels grand, with lots of room for a couple or a small family and every touch feels just right. So much wonderful stuffed into a small space with a private back patio overlooking the woodland to BBQ and relax on after a day at the beach.
You will without a doubt love your stay, but please don’t book this property as we want it for ourselves… only kidding folks, don’t let this one get away, book today!!
A very Special thanks to Susan & Ned for the special treats and the wonderful hospitality.

Apple Tree Cottage in West Barnstable is the ideal place for two adults to stay when you want to explore all of the amazing sites anywhere on TheCape. Susan is a delightful host and has everything prepared - plus treats - in true Cape Cod style for her guest. We are so happy we decided to stay at this amazing little cottage! It is perfectly situated in the mid-Cape area making it the ideal starting point to anywhere on the Cape and Historic Route 1a (which is a must travel route). The cottage is just perfect! No detail has been missed, and the owner, Susan has not missed any detail to make your stay enjoyable. It is peaceful and quiet, there is a wonderful back patio where you can sit and enjoy bird watching with your morning coffee. We will definitely save this VRBO listing for our future trips to The Cape! Thank you Susan for providing such a lovely cottage on The Cape to rest and relax.

This is our second time at this beautiful cottage. Again, not disappointed. The cottage is lovely, made for two with privacy and a charming interior (with surprises of snacks and information) and outdoor space, all done in total Cape style. Susan is a great host. The location is within minutes of beaches, bike trails, restaurants, attractions and shops. We love this place and recommend it highly to enjoy, explore the Cape.
Thank you for such a perfect setting! See you again!
