01 / THE BRAND

What it’s all about.

Beach Plum Farm pairs cottage stays with a working farm, market and kitchen in West Cape May. Part of Cape Resorts, it offers a different rhythm from a beachfront hotel: gardens, seasonal food and farm activities shape the visit. The cottages provide a residential feeling, while Cape May’s beach and town remain separate outings.
