Beautiful, Rural Setting

We very much enjoyed our stay at the Historic Vacation Home. The listing was accurate. It is indeed, a very old property, so the fact that doors or drawers might be misaligned is just part of the character. It was quite hot during our stay, but all the bedrooms stayed cool with window AC units. The king and queen beds were comfortable (pillows could stand to be replaced), but the trundle beds were less so for the adults who slept in that room. The kitchen is stocked with every conceivable pot or dish that you could need and we appreciated that there were numerous spices available. We loved driving around the area and made frequent stops at Walker's roadside produce stand and coffee bar. The dining table was a good size for the six of us to play cards around, although the lighting was a lacking in that room. All in all, it was a great place for three couples to spend a wonderful week together. PS If you go here, you *must* buy a locally-made pie at Wilbur's General Store!

Lovely beach getaway

My friends and I enjoyed a long Labor Day weekend at this lovely cottage. The yard is perfect for games and hanging out, there are farm stands with local produce nearby, and it’s a short walk down a peaceful street to the water.

Sibling Vacation

Our sole purpose in renting this house was to have a place for breakfast and a place to sleep at night. It was a convenient location for sight seeing Boston, Cape Cod, Lexington, Concord as well as Newport and Providence. It’s a historic house so the lighting is dim and seating in the living room was not sufficient to accommodate our entire group. The house is very quaint and our time there was enjoyable.

Perfect New England farm house stay.

We loved this house. The location was excellent, in such a beautiful spot in Little Compton. We rode our bikes to Sakonnet Point and Little Compton Commons. Easy access to beautiful beaches and so much outdoor space to enjoy. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
