We loved our stay in Bristol. The house is in a great location, near many restaurants and shops, the harbor and Bike Path. The pace of life and weather in Bristol was a great escape for us. We had read the reviews about noise from Aidan's and the daycare, and never once heard noise from the bar and the children playing on the other side of the fence were delightful in the morning. We also loved hearing the Prudence Island ferry blow its horn in the morning, and it was a really nice signal to get on with our day. The house is well equipped with everything you need for a short or long stay, and was exactly as advertised. Karen is a great host, very responsive, with nice reminders to take out the trash, and a very helpful online house manual.
