Norm's place by the sea was everything described and more! The apartment on the bottom floor of the house opens directly onto a nice patio with a fantastic view of the ocean. The place itself could not have been better -- up to date, spotless, comfortable and spacious. The nautical theme is carried throughout, but is especially well done in the bedroom which is inviting with its white bed and navy and white bedding. There is a cozy sitting room with a gas fireplace that provides heat as well as atmosphere. The dining area ties the patio and the sitting room together. Bathroom is modern with a nice big shower and a separate heater. Norm could not have been a better host! He met us as we pulled in and showed us about, answering our questions and pointing out the many snacks and drinks in the refrigerator. And in the morning, he brought down freshly baked cinnamon rolls, which were delicious! Aside from all of the amenities, there is much to peruse in this apartment, including several beautifully crafted ship models and a number of paintings. All in all, we had a wonderful time in Little Compton, and our accommodations were a very big part of that.
