The Isaiah Jones Homestead consists of two separate buildings on one acre of land with a total of 7 distinctly decorated guest rooms and several common rooms. Each room has numerous antiques, a king or queen size bed, private bath, and many of the rooms have whirlpool tubs and fireplaces. Each room comes with luxurious robes and other amenities. All of the guest rooms have private baths en suite. A three course gourmet breakfast is included. All the guest areas have central air conditioning.
The Carriage House, built circa 1875 and recently renovated, has two large, luxurious rooms located on the second floor. Each room is decorated in Victorian Cottage Style and has a sitting area overlooking the garden and fish pond and contains a fireplace, cable TV, skylights, ceiling fan, vaulted ceiling, whirlpool bath and separate shower. These rooms also have a sofa that can convert to a full-size bed for an extra guest. These private, secluded rooms are ideal for that special occasion or a relaxing retreat. Come and relax by the fire, enjoy a soothing soak in the oversized whirlpool or gaze out over the garden and pond while enjoying your morning coffee.
The Thornton Burgess Room was named after the noted Sandwich-born naturalist and children's author (originator of Peter Rabbit, Reddy Fox and Grandfather Fox). The Captain Weeks Room was named after Captain William Weeks, a noted New Bedford whaler who was the father of Hannah Weeks. Hannah Weeks married Isaiah Jones in 1862, together they had 8 children.
The Main House of the Isaiah Jones Homestead was built in 1849 in the Italianate style. Here you will find a small study with books and pamphlets on Cape attractions, a cable TV, phone and internet access. In the Victorian living room (once used as the Jones family parlor), one can see many photographs of Isaiah and Hannah Jones and their family and many late 19th century photographs of the house. There is an original working fireplace at one end (look for the misplaced tile), two bay windows and an enormous china cabinet. The cherry-paneled dining room, opened in January, 2004, has a fireplace, bookcases and opens onto a deck overlooking the yard and gardens. You will also find a refrigerator with complimentary sodas and waters and a self-service tea and coffee set-up.
