We loved practically everything about this delightful guest-house and it's charming, bucolic setting. The home is well equipped and has great ambience. Hydrangeas and roses beckon. The backyard, enclosed by tall hedges, is spacious and inviting - great for al fresco dining - romantic lamp-lit dinners and sun-dappled breakfasts under the ginko tree. The fields surrounding the property are picture-perfect and nicely maintained. Birds abound. We enjoyed biking to and from the nearby beach (private access, for residents and their guests), and coming home to the outdoor shower :-). If you're a runner, you'll love the 3 mi loop trail from the house and along the beach and back. This is a sweet get-away destination with a peaceful, relaxing vibe, lovely scenery, and fresh ocean air. If/when you want to mix it up a bit, you can drive to Newport or Providence (40-45 min) for sightseeing and dinner, etc. Cliff Walk in Newport and the Sanchuest Pt National Coastal Refuge are two great spots to walk along the shore. Also New Bedford is worth a visit, to see the Whaling Museum which offers an interesting view of New England’s seacoast history and heritage (also check out the Seamen’s Bethel across the street, mentioned in Melville’s Moby Dick).
