We travelled from England, via Toronto, to this lovely, lovely holiday property - it was well worth the journey! Caroline, the owner, was really helpful with arranging our stay - sending the keys to us in advance so we had no worries about arriving and not being able to get in. We followed the travel directions that she sent and found the place easily.
The house itself is in a lovely, peaceful location overlooking the green. It was very relaxing to sit out on the patio in the early evening, with a gin and tonic, and watch the last few golfers go through. We found the house to be very clean, well equipped and nicely furnished. We were four adults and found it to be very spacious, and convenient with two bathrooms. The beds were very comfortable and there was an endless supply of fluffy white towels. We used the cooking facilities most evening and the kitchen cupboards were well stocked with china, pans and utensils. We were able to connect to the internet without any problems.
Caroline was absolutely brilliant - checking that we were okay on arrival and advising us about some of the local attractions and places to eat. We loved the local beach, but on the couple of days that we did venture further afield, her advice and suggestions made these outings stress free and all the more enjoyable. The local area and closeby towns of Falmouth and Mashpee have a nice 'holiday feel' to them, but not spoilt by over-commercialism/development. We made the trip to Martha's Vineyard, which was also well worth the visit.
Anyone reading this revue would realise that if it is a nice, peaceful relaxing holiday that you want, this is a perfect house, in a perfect location, with a very helpful owner. We have absolutely no reservations in recommending it.

We just returned from our stay at this great place! We were to attend a wedding and with 5 of us, it's hard and uncomfortable to squeeze into the suggested hotel. This place was perfect for us. Many of the conveniences of a hotel (towels, linens and comfortable beds) with much more space! My husband just loved the view of the 12th green. He sat out on the porch whenever he had a chance and we ate out there quite a bit. Very relaxing and quite neighborhood. The house was very clean and welcoming. The beach was just right now the road a bit. We were very pleased with everything and would return again in an instant!

My husband and I rented this townhome for 10 days and were not disappointed. The place was quite clean (not perfect but not bad) and the amenities were as described. The kitchen needs a bit of upgrading -- microwave is ancient, pots and pans on the cheap side -- but the owner seems to be heading in that direction. Most importantly, we were never bothered by noise and were able to truly relax. The surrounding woods are lovely, and being on the golf course was a nice perk. The Mews is close to one entrance to New Seabury so in and out access was easy, and if you know a gym member, the gym is 60 seconds away by foot and you can use it for a minimal guest fee. One small caveat: these units have steep stairs up to the second level so if bad knees or bad balance are an issue, you might want so consider a main floor master unit instead.

The condo is really perfect, comfortable beds, quiet environment. The only reason it was a good was that it was advertised as having internet and it didn't. This really was inconvenient for us as we had work to do while there. The little village has WIFI so we sat at a picnic bench and worked. Also, there is a fantasic fitness center next to the pool. Apparently we didn't have access to that facility, just the pool but the guy at the desk let us in. That would be something to clarify. All in all I would definitely recommend the place.

Everything we hoped it would be. Property well maintained and cleaned to a high standard. Owner telephoned us a couple of times to make sure everything was okay and to see if there was anything she could help us with. She was very friendly and helpful. There was lots to do nearby. We did visit Boston but there are lots of places nearby that we were able to visit within about 30 minutes drive - Mashpee Commons, Cape Cod etc and plenty of local restaurants all at a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend this property and if we were visiting the area from the UK again I would certainly want to stay here.
There was only own problem and that was that we thought we would be able to use the fitness suite as this was mentioned in the rental details on the web but when we tried to use it we were told that the owner was not a member of the fitness suite and so we could not use it either.
Other than that it was a very pleasant and memorable experience and we would be happy to visit here again.
