Jo-Anne and Richard welcome you to The Parsonage Cape Cod
In the eleven years of running the Parsonage Inn, Jo and Rich Hoad met so many wonderful guests. So it was with mixed feelings that they decided to re-invent the Inn and convert to the two rentals for the summer season. However, individual rooms will be available in the shoulder seasons and both Jo and Rich are excited at the opportunity of welcoming back existing guests, as well as new ones experiencing the historic home for the first time. They love the Cape, feel so lucky to live in such a remarkable historic house and look forward to sharing the beauty of Cape Cod with you. They’ve been married for 40 years, have five children, and have worked and lived in the United Kingdom, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Canada, Maryland, and Cape Cod. Your comfort and enjoyment while staying at the Parsonage are of utmost importance, so read their Blog and you’ll find delicious local restaurants, their favorite day trips and hiking trails, seal or whale watching, bike rentals, or theatre tickets, all to ensure you have a wonderful stay in Orleans, MA on Cape Cod.
