Jenny hosted us and gets the best five stars we can bestow thanks to our complete guest experience in Little Compton.
1- Caring and committed host - unexpected responsibility required our gracious host to change her personal plans, yet she went out of her way to accommodate us with a fabulous vibe - rather than canceling our reservation!
2- Cleanliness and order - From the bright gardens at front entrance, to every place open to guests, all was immaculate and sparkled: floors, supportive yet soft platform bed, parking area, bathroom (including vintage claw foot tub) mini-office with mini fridge and microwave, French press… all of it!
3- Privacy - While the entranceway is through the foyer of main house, we felt like we had our pad all to ourselves and that our host was extremely supportive of our experience. Little Compton itself is a beautiful, quaint community with the feel of southern New England right off a movie set!
4- Location - We heard the waves crashing on the rocks just under 500 feet away, as sound carries well under the gleaming constellations above the entire coastal horizon’s view. The glass doors open to the spacious and recessed private balcony. The beautiful guest suite is built under a high pitched roof giving character (slope is near perpendicular behind the bed) for a very effective use of space. We had an impression of roominess, being great for our needs as a couple. The back window (views are on both sides of the house), projects a rural residential/woodland feel and there is a sturdy fire ring for those inclined. Next time!
5- Value- Some people will want to have the bustle of Providence 40 minutes away, or Fall River midway when you don’t take the scenic route through Bristol and Barrington. Wilbur’s General store is here and there is a coffee shop and pizza place at the village commons, Johnnycakes, along with a church dating to ca. 1700 with a famous graveyard. Since our stay was over Halloween we attended the hopping party the town through across the street in the community center and had a great time. A modern home with quaint touches throughout, in a town surrounded by nature preserves and romantic coastal scenery vs. the city, at a quite reasonable cost, no ticket science calculation needed for us!
Thanks Jenny for everything. We had a pleasurable experience we will remember forever, and we appreciate how you welcomed us and made every effort to go above and beyond the AirBnB format where it truly counted for us.
