Lovely space great location

The room was clean, spacious, bright and beautifully decorated. The hosts were very attentive and responsive. I would definitely recommend staying here. We had planned to walk or bike to town which seemed very doable but it was unseasonably cold so we drove. Everything of interest was close by and easily accessible.

Perfect Get Away

Caitlin and Chris’ place is cozy, tranquil and situated in beautiful area. You can easily walk into town or drive to other great locations such as Stonnington, Westerly and Newport. This was our third or fourth time staying with them and have never been disappointed. It is so nice to stay during the off season. We look forward to staying here in the spring. I highly recommend this place.
