Staying in Wellfleet

Wellfleet sits on the Outer Cape, between the Atlantic beaches on one side and the sheltered bay on the other. Visitors come for the ocean and bay beaches, the ponds, the trails and the town's galleries, restaurants and shops, which cluster around the harbour and Commercial Street. The pace is slow and much of the day is spent outdoors, on the water or on foot.

The 4-star places on this list are spread through the town and its quiet residential lanes. Several addresses sit along Old Kings Highway, including Old Kings Hideout, Peace Among the Pines and Tall Pines. Others stand on the side roads off it — Sea Pine Road, Marven Way, Summit Avenue, Eastwind Circle — while a group of properties sits close in: 11 E Commercial St, 50 Harding Ln and 35 Long Pond Rd, within walking distance of the centre. It suits couples on a short break, families who need a full kitchen and laundry, and groups who want space, parking and a private terrace or garden.
