About this apartment rental

Located in Falmouth, MA, The Shire is a charming 1960s Cape house surrounded by trees and mature plantings. It has a unique character, with interesting nooks & crannies. Outside, there is always something in bloom. Located on a quiet street, it’s a 5-minute drive to the beach or a 20-minute bike ride.

Wake up in the morning to the sound of birds, relax with a cuppa on your private back deck, check in with work with high speed internet. For remote work stays, a home office setup can be provided.

The Space

The studio, affectionately named The Cupboard Atop the Stairs (any Harry Potter fans?), is its own private space. It contains a B&B Italia queen bed with luxury bedding, kitchenette, fold out lighted desk, large updated bath, and hi-speed WiFi.

The studio is perfect for singles or couples, and is pet friendly. Can also accommodate a wee one. Portable crib available upon request.

Guest Access

Guests can access the entire outside space which includes your own deck, a large fenced yard, outdoor shower, brick patio with seating and fire pit. Except for the deck, the yard is a shared space. On occasion, you might spot someone in the yard gardening. Guests may also access the washer/dryer in the garage, and may store bikes, kayaks or other recreation equipment on the property.

Interaction

We respect your privacy and will interact with you as you desire. We live here year round and are happy to share recommendations on local places of interest.

Other Details

To customize your stay, please let us know your preference on our 100% cotton luxury bedding (sateen, linen or percale), and your favorite flavor of Girl Scout cookies (seasonal).

This is a family home with an art studio, so you may see some personal items about, or a curious cat through a window. Everything inside your accommodations and in the outside space is available for your use. And if you need anything additional, just ask! There’s enough parking for several cars.

We are pet friendly and can welcome one dog. Reach out with details about your pet or any questions before booking. A small dog (up to35lbs) would be most comfortable in the space.

Laura was an incredible host - her attention to detail and kindness is unmatched. She was great with communication and always quick to respond. The space itself is beautiful, lots of natural light and very Cape like finishes. The private back deck was our favorite place to relax during our weekend stay.

Great accomodations offering everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood, neat and clean rooms, thoughtful amenities. We originally booked for two weeks prior in order to attend a family reunion. However a threatening hurricane forced the party's cancellation. Laura was terrific in working with us to reschedule our reservation.

I stayed here with my cousin for a girl's trip to Falmouth/Martha's Vineyard. It's a nice little place to stay and in a great location. It's on a quiet street in a cute neighborhood, but it's close enough to easily drive (or Uber/Lyft) to Falmouth center, the ferry, etc. The shower is big and the bed is comfy. The host is really friendly/helpful and greeted me when I first arrived (she also always responded to my messages quickly). She provided us with lots of snacks, a fridge with water bottles, a microwave, etc. We had a great time, and definitely recommend this spot! If you can, take advantage of the porch out back. We forgot to do that, and it looked really peaceful! (Just a note to bring an eye mask if the light wakes you up. I forgot mine and the light shines pretty brightly into the skylight on the ceiling)

The Cupboard Atop the Stairs is a very special place. The room was nicely appointed with a comfortable bed, luxurious bedding, large fluffy towels, and many amenities that you would find in a deluxe hotel. The mini fridge and Keurig coffee maker were great to have and stylish too! The private deck was wonderful - a peaceful place to enjoy a cup of coffee and some Girl Scout cookies while looking out at the lovely garden. We truly enjoyed our stay and recommend it highly. Thank you Laura!
