Tom was a great host and we had a really good stay at this hotel. Everyone was very helpful and it’s very close to town. There isn’t much in Falmouth but it is a very quaint little town. A very good breakfast is included in the room rate and it’s also only a 10 minute walk to the free shuttle service if you intend to visit Martha’s Vineyard. One word of warning about Martha’s Vineyard, everything is closed from November until April. We went to Edgartown, Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven but we’re very disappointed to find that virtually every store, restaurant and coffee shop were closed! We visited Nantucket at exactly the same time last year and at least 50% of the premises were open. Very puzzling and even a couple of locals we spoke to don’t understand why this is the case. Especially so close to Christmas and they actually had Christmas merchandise in the store! The island is beautiful but we struggled to get a coffee and only found one bar open in Oak Bluffs. However, I can thoroughly recommend The Palmer Inn and Falmouth as both are charming. Lots of places to eat and a couple of good bars as well.
