Sow's Ear Farm offers two acres of grounds enhanced by private sitting areas, patios, and paths through herb and perennial gardens. The grounds are bordered by working cranberry bogs, the Santuit River, a herring run, and walking trails through 300 acres of conservation land, once the site of the Wampanoag Native American Nation.

Perhaps the most compelling reason for lodging at Sow's Ear Farm is that we are surrounded by several businesses housed in 18th Century homes often referred to as "Crocker Corners" of Cotuit.

Next door is the Cahoon Museum of American Art known for its display of wonderful art work and unique gift shop. A few steps from the Museum is the Isaiah Thomas Book Store, across the street, Cape Cod's famous five-star restaurant, The Regatta of Cotuit. Also nearby, an exquisite boutique, and another wonderful antique shop and buckle works called ETC. Not to be missed is our own antique shop, Sow's Ear Antique Co. You're welcome to browse and chat with us about our favorite subjects - Old Houses and Antiques. If inclined you could visit one of Cape Cod's most beautiful ocean beaches only one mile away and outstanding shopping at Mashpee Commons.

THE CAHOON ROOM

Surround yourself in the 18th century art and antiques of two of Cape Cod's most well-loved and famous folk-artists, Ralph and Martha Cahoon. Some pieces of their original artwork and hand painted furniture decorate the room. After basking in the cozy olde world ambiance treat yourself to an abundant continental breakfast served in the common room. A sumptuous queen size four poster bed with a twin bed for an extra guest.The private bath with a modern shower is graced with a rare oak trimmed footed tub.

   

THE EBENEZER CROCKER ROOM

First Period Architecture is featured throughout the 1729 house and showcased in the Ebenezer Crocker Room. Named for the founder of the "Crocker Corners", Ebenezer Crocker, moved the house to its current site in 1739 from the Village of West Barnstable using sleds and oxen. The house was moved because Mr. Crocker was appointed by King George II to be the overseer of the Wampanoag Nations. Fortunately, the 300 acres behind the house, once the site of the Tribe's reservation, have been preserved, available for our guests to take leisurely walks through the many trails. This gracious room and bath feature a canopy queen-sized bed with a twin day bed. The private bath is adorned with a "Rufus Porter" style mural. Sit by the fireplace and read your favorite book.
