SECRET
ATTRACTIONS OF CENTURY HOUSE
"If you can tear yourself away from
"Gerry's Berry Buffet Breakfast" or afternoon cookies and cream on
the
veranda,
you might consider touring the surrounding area where this charming
1830's B&B is located;
classing styling is met by with luxurious modern amenities (Molton
Brown bath products),
at this Cliffside spot frequented by TV producers scouting
locations..."

We embrace and preserve the Nantucket we know
and combine luxury, history, comfort and intimacy. We
are a family restored bed and breakfast for 175 years. The
oldest continuously operating guesthouse on the island and
not the cookie-cutter hotel. We provide a personal
touch, and an unforgettable Nantucket experience, the way we
know Nantucket. This is your private, home away from home
for those wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of
the city, and mainland life. Each room is decorated in its
own style, hand-picked by the innkeeper himself.
Original fireplaces and restored hard wood floors.

ADVENTURE. Century House is an adventure itself.
If you are a fan of the NBC
television show "Wings," you may find the
Century House sign or facade familiar. Executive producers
David Lee, Peter Casey and David Angell chose the Century
House as their B&B when first visiting the island in 1989 to
scout locations. In the following years, scenes of the
inn have often been featured on the show, and the
innkeepers were invited to watch a taping and to be extras!)
of a September, 1994 episode.
Other adventures exist here. Thrill in the surf. Ride the waves
watching the whales. Swim in sparkling waters.
Feisty fishing, kayaking, indulgent shopping, basket
weaving, bird watching, enchanting bicycle paths close to
the inn, sunlit cruises, enlightening island tours, star
gazing and others. |
