"We were looking for something special for our visit to Plymouth and we certainly found it here! The house itself is just beautiful, the listed photos, while great, don't do it justice, it's better than the photos. It is very well equipped and very comfortable. The street is quiet, but the harbor and shops/restaurants, etc are within easy walking distance. Highly recommended! Janet D, London, UK.

"We spent several weeks in the townhouse and enjoyed every minute of it! The house has an abundance of period features and comes with a fully equipped high-end kitchen. We enjoyed the proximity to a great variety of restaurants, and a bit of street life just around the corner even though the house is on a quiet street. To top it off, Robin and John were the perfect hosts, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the stay. We would love to come back!" (M+M)

From the owner:

We understand. You need a hotel but want a home. You'd like a historic B+B, but don't want to have to rub elbows with Mr and Mrs Innkeeper at breakfast. You want privacy, a beautiful in-town stay, understated luxury and comfort, a classy kitchen with high-end appliances you may not even have at home. You want room to spread out, with space to sort through your maps, guidebooks, history books, cameras and coffee, checking email via WiFi. Comfortable bedrooms, new bathrooms with granite countertops in a yesteryear 'mansion' home you can rent like a hotel so your family can play tourist without getting stuck in a forlorn motel chain. Think of it as a London-style townhouse similar to one you would rent in Kensington to visit the Victoria and Albert Museum.

Here is a lovely note left by our guests from Great Britain, 'We knew instantly when we spotted Cushman Place on the VRBO website that it was exactly what we were looking for. However, on arrival, we were even more impressed. Your extremely tasteful decor and furnishings made it an absolute delight to stay here in Plymouth. Add to that the location so close to the waterfront, restaurants, etc, and it was outstanding. Thank you so much for a fantastic rental; we will certainly tell all our friends about Cushman Place. With our thanks and best wishes'-- Steve and Jane L. UK.

Cushman Place Residence is a 2-story, 2-bedroom townhouse (with an alcove large enough for a crib), divided many years ago from a 1900s grand Colonial Revival home. It is located at the edge of the Historic District. Once part of a distinguished 6000 square foot manse (which had servants galore), this private in-town 2-bedroom townhouse is a separate, private home with its own entrance and easy parking and back garden patio area with BBQ grill and extra parking. Cushman Place living room was the formal dining room of the original manse, with its finely detailed fireplace (because of height of chimney and possible smoke backups in certain weather, we do not allow fires; we have a faux electric insert instead), crown moldings, and wainscot. Beautiful quarter-sawn oak wood floors, inspiring light from the large windows, delightful details, not the least of which is a sunlit kitchen with SubZero refrigerator and Miele cooktop and Miele dishwasher, Bosch convection oven, honed granite countertops and an abundance of quality cookware and beautiful dishes and glassware ... quite a change from your conventional lodging. You'll find a powder room under the attractive staircase leading to second floor, where two gracious bedrooms and a luxurious renovated bathroom let couples, a family, a bridal party, or space-loving singles, sleep comfortably, then foray into the exciting world of historic Plymouth, Cape Cod and the Islands.

One flight below the townhouse dining room, you can toss a load of vacation laundry into the complimentary state-of-the-art HE laundry, the LG Tromm Steamwasher, and have visions of a by-gone day, where servants scampered about taking care of such mundane tasks such as undies and lunch.

You can rent for days or weeks, enjoying amenities we today consider 'necessities' in the privacy and comfort of home. Your own front door is just a short walk to the waterfront, Plymouth Rock, whale watching, historic sites, ships, antiques, boutiques, and great restaurants, pubs, and entertainment.

Consider reserving Cushman Place as an alternative to a cramped hotel stay to see the historic sites, or if flying early into Boston or Providence for your Cape Cod vacation rental. In town too early to check into your vacation rental? We are here to jump start your vacation. As most waterfront vacation properties are on strict Saturday-to-Saturday or Sunday-to-Sunday schedules, we wanted to be able to offer our incoming guests a refuge and opportunity to explore the area if their travel plans brought them to Cape Cod earlier than the check-in day. Cushman Place provides our incoming guests a place to rest, refresh, explore, and catch up with email.

We consider it an honor to be chosen as your vacation home, and we work diligently to see that your trust is rewarded beyond your expectations. If Cushman Place Residence is unavailable, please see our other FIVE STAR listings in the Plymouth area:
