My husband and I traveled by ferry to Block Island with only our bicycles, and Sheffield House was absolutely perfect for us. We were not in the hubbub of the ferry landing and downtown businesses, but were just a couple of blocks away. The house is a charming Victorian with a nice shared kitchen/dining room and plenty of breakfast continental style. Our bedroom was attractive and very clean with a spacious en suite bath. The room was quiet except for some chickens in the morning, which made us smile. In the afternoon, Diane has wine and snacks available for a relaxing time on the pretty wraparound porch. Diane helped us find good restaurants and island trails. One of the things we discovered ourselves was a beautiful view at sunset of the village from the street beside her house. Hike up the hill and have a peek! Thanks Diane. We hope to return to polish off more of the hiking on beautiful Block Island.
