Another perfect stay at The Oxford where comfort, courtesy and the personal commitment from the owners are the key criteria that make this guesthouse Number 1 in Provincetown. If you are looking for a beautiful place to stay that is close enough to all the P'Town action but also just far enough away to provide peace and relaxation time, then this guesthouse is by far the best option. Will be back shortly.

Our stay at the inn was warm and welcoming. The ambiance of the inn and gardens are not to be missed or topped by any other inn. Trevor & Stephen have been innkeepers for years and yet they make you feel like it's all brand new and you're their first guests. We made plans to return before we left.

Breakfast, afternoon snacks and evening treats are added pleasures. The instant romance fireplace in the Exeter was perfect for cool evenings.

The inn is also located in a beautiful area of town, so taking a walk through the surrounding streets is an added pleasure. We highly recommend this inn. Potter the dog is quite charming.

Where to begin...My boo and I choose the Oxford due to a recommendation from a co-worker of mine. Let's just say, I owe my coworker a gourmet lunch...

Stephen and Trevor along with their home are delightful. Their garden is in surperb condition, one the most beautiful patios and backyards I have ever seen. The guesthouse is situated on a quaint little street which is away from the hustle and bustle but also in perfect walking distance to the action on Commercial St.. The rooms including ours were immaculate and classically stylish, I should know cause I sneaked peaks into all of the others while they were unoccupied of course.

Carl, one of their staff members was extremely friendly and helpful especially when we constantly bugged him for the clothing iron. The light morning breakfast served daily was a great way to start the day; freshed brewed coffee, english muffins, fresh fruit salad and a variety of cereals and even homeade bread pudding which my boo highly enjoyed. Their dog, Potter is probably the friendliest and cleanest dog in all of MA. At first when I was reading reviews about the house that mentioned their dog, Potter I was worried because I'm usually allergic and scared of big dogs but due to her calm manner and well grooming my boo didnt have to protect me or give me a benadrly shot.

In conclusion our vacation to Ptown was a wonderful experience and the Oxford Guest House only made it an even more memorable trip.

We had an amazing time staying with Trevor and Stephen (and Potter) at the Oxford Guesthouse. My girlfriend and I really needed a vacation away from our jobs in Boston and we were looking for a nice and quiet B&B. The Oxford fit the bill perfectly. We felt like we were staying with old friends who'd given us the run of their beautiful home. Our room, the Trinity Suite, was luxurious yet comfortable and I especially enjoyed the sunfilled mornings waking up in 480 thread count sheets. I also had some shoulder/back problems while were there, and Stephen was kind enough to make me an appointment with their massage therapist. The DVD collection and high speed internet are alsp a definite plus! We were there in spring, so it was very quiet and relaxing, but I have a feeling that the Oxford maintains the same feeling even in the middle of July. We will definitely be returning as soon as possible!!

We spent 4 wonderful days in Cape Cod and The Oxford Guesthouse has certainly contributed to our pleasant stay.
We really enjoyed the home-made breakfast, afternoon snacks and wine, relaxing ambiance and the decoration of the Guesthouse. The owners are very nice, friendly and easy-going. And they also have one of the cutest golden retriver's too!
I will definately suggest the Oxford to all of my friends who wish to go for a vacation to Cape Cod.
