Winner!! We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. It is adorable, with many thoughtful touches and has extremely comfortable furniture. Although we did a lot of activities in and around Portsmouth and Newport, I could have quite happily sat in the cozy swivel chairs or deck gliders watching the water all day. It is next to a public beach but it is quiet and feels very private. I couldn't be happier about our weekend away. We will happily return to this same cottage. Our hostess was helpful, friendly, and provided thoughtful extras for our enjoyment. She takes excellent care of her property. Unlike other places we've stayed, the checkout process was very easy and had minimal requirements. That was so appreciated! If you're considering this cottage, you'll find it adorable and well-appointed. There is plenty to do right there and other points of interest in and near Newport, Bristol, Middletown, and even Little Compton are a short drive away.
