A great place

Perfect location, just far enough away from everything but 10-15 minutes to Mystic and Stonington Point. The property owners are lovely people. The house itself is worthy of a chapter in a book. Very nice former B&B full of character and history. We will stay here again.

Wonderful Thanksgiving Getaway

Had a great time enjoying this historical home and property for our family Thanksgiving. Sandra and Jim are very welcoming and will share some of the stories of the old home if you are curious. Check in/check out was seamless and the owners live in the other home on the property if you need anything. They even provided recommendations for local restaurants for Thanksgiving dinner. The home had plenty of space for our group. My teens enjoyed meeting the resident horses as well!

About the host

Hosted by Sandra Wright

Jim is a retired college professor (theatre and communication) with a passion for pipe organs, model trains and antique engines. Sandra is a registered nurse, working full-time in Assisted Living. We have a dog named Jackie, two cats (Hobo and PC), a blue and gold macaw named Admiral Bird, plus our horses out back.

Why they chose this property

One look in August of 2001 and we fell in love! The location is perfect: quiet and rural, lots of trees. Yet we're only 5 minutes from Mystic and Stonington Borough, 10 minutes from Westerly, RI and 20 minutes from Watch Hill and Misquamicut.

What makes this property unique

Owners are nearby for assistance when needed as we live in the property's guest house, known as "the barn".

Where else can you sit on your back patio, or look out your kitchen window, and watch horses grazing?
