The Tern Inn seems to have something for everyone. There’s a swimming pool, bicycles, nearby beach, breakfast room with full breakfast included, lovely outdoor patio with plenty of seating, small private cottages, rooms in the Inn and rooms in a small carriage house. There was even a complementary wine happy hour. The rooms were really well stocked with toiletries, linens, snacks, etc and the whole property was beautifully landscaped and maintained.

The Tern Inn was perfect for our 3-day stay in West Harwich! Friendly and helpful hosts, delicious breakfasts, bikes for guest use (but no helmets, so bring your own). Our room in one of the cottages was very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!
