Gingerbread House
Bed and Breakfast

The Gingerbread House Bed and Breakfast, built in 1869 and lovingly restored by your hosts, is one of the original Stockton Row Cottages in the oceanside village of Cape May.

Located in the heart of the historic district, the Gingerbread House is less than a block from the beach and promenade and merely two blocks from the Cape May Victorian Mall.

As you enter the long foyer of the Gingerbread House, you'll notice the chestnut and walnut staircase. A light and airy feeling that surrounds you while peaceful sounds of the classical music playing in the background will warm your soul. The wood-burning fireplace is an enjoyment in the wintertime. Authentic Victorian antiques adorn all of the rooms. The large stained glass window in the dining room is a real eye-catcher. The delightful breezes and the sounds of the sea create a romantic setting at this New Jersey shore home.

The Gingerbread House offers six charming guest rooms, several with private baths and all with air conditioning and ceiling fans. The master bedroom boasts a spacious private porch. All of the lovely guest rooms are embellished in beautiful lace curtains. The walls are adorned with original watercolor paintings by Jane Echevarria, Fred's mother. Beach towels, personal toiletries, guest refrigerator, a guest telephone with free local calls, wireless Internet and LCD flat panel TV's are just a few of the amenities you will enjoy.

You can enjoy all that Cape May and the New Jersey shore region has to offer during your stay at the beautiful Gingerbread House.

A delicious home-baked breakfast is served every morning to enjoy at your leisure in the elegant dining room or on the front porch. The healthy-style breakfast consists of coffee, teas, juice, homemade granola cereal, assorted yogurts, fresh seasonal sliced fruit or fruit compote, and home-baked coffee cakes, muffins, or cinnamon buns. Between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m, enjoy a complimentary afternoon tea. This is a delightful time of the day to mingle with other guests and relax before dinner.

Cape May's attractions and finest restaurants are within walking distance. Take a stroll to the beach and promenade, wander through the Victorian Mall or visit the lighthouse.
