Perfect Early Summer Getaway

Our stay in Bristol was extremely pleasant. We were able to take advantage of all of the surrounding activities, including tours of the mansions and the cliff walk down in Newport. The house was wonderful, and John was extremely helpful in making our stay free and uncomplicated

The location was wonderful...a short walk to shops, restaurants, amazing water views, and the bike path. John was very accommodating, allowing us to arrive earlier than planned and the use of the front porch.

This adorable apartment was in a perfect location in the center of historic Bristol. I could walk to all my favorite local restaurants, stores and ocean spots. It was very clean with thoughtful care taken by the landlord to provide just the right amenities and personal touches. I would definitely recommend it and will stay there when I visit again if available.

Lovely Little House for Two

We were here for our grandson’s graduation from high school and we were looking for a place downtown. This house was perfect for us. John was a great host , everything you could possibly need was provided! We were even treated to a delicious blueberry loaf! Clean and recently updated with new kitchen and bathroom. Would certainly like to stay there again.

Sweet apartment in the most darling town

We had the most wonderful time Bristol. The location was ideal. We could walk everywhere. The apartment was perfectly suited for 2 of us. Every detail was taken care of and John was wonderful with communication. The marvelous homemade chocolate bread was such a great gift to start our girls trip. Would highly recommend.

Nice Surprise

An old New England home with a surprise! I was concerned at first! Upon entering the unit, I was amazed to see the modern kitchen against the highly polished, old wood floors! I was greeted by a beautiful ceramic dish containing fresh blueberry cake, with a ribbon tied on it, and a welcome note! The sitting room and bedroom are furnished with antiques, old rugs, preserved original lighting, and comfortable bed and bedding. The bathroom is completely new, with rain style and hand held shower heads, and a large soaking tub. Outside on the porch are two chairs for enjoying the bird choruses in the mornings, and a green open space for games and visiting. The location was perfect for me-6 tenths of a mile to one sister, and 7 tenths to the other! I would recommend this unit!

This was our first VRBO we have booked and it did not disappoint. I highly recommend staying here. John was easy to work with, making sure we had everything we needed start to finish. Very close to other parts of RI, such as Newport. Downtown Bristol has many cute boutiques, such as Wink, owned by a local. Great coffee shops, empire and the beehive, top notch. Several walking paths and bike paths within walking distance of this apartment. Everything that you would want when staying out of town. We can’t wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by John

Host profile image
We purchased this property in November 2016, it was a derelict property, only one apartment had a heating system. Over a span of 5 years every apartment was completely remodeled. This apartment, the last, we use for ourselves and short term rentals. Dont let the exterior fool you.....its next on our list.

Why they chose this property

If you like historic homes you will like this apartment. We added all modern amenities while maintaining a lot of the original features like the moldings and southern yellow pine floors.
