Wonderful house!

This was a last-minute getaway so we were pleased to find such a great place available. Lots of space - and lots of art and cozy spots to sit! Especially loved the screen porch.

Extraordinary

The home is every bit as charming as advertised, and there is no square inch without evidence of the owner's artistic temperament. It is about a half mile from South Beach/Goose Wing Preserve, which we took advantage of every day. The beach is uncrowded and very beautiful. We had not been to Little Compton/Tiverton for several years, and we found plenty to do. Our host, Abby, was very attentive, and when one minor internet issue arose, she and her husband Len jumped on it. We look forward to returning.

Perfection!

We had a wonderful stay at Abby and Len's Art Barn. The house was absolute perfection. Plenty of cozy nooks for us to each have a good dose of peace and quiet. The backyard with the wildflowers and the bunnies was also a favorite spot to sit and read. The property is on a very quiet private road, and we enjoyed being away from all the sounds of traffic etc. We would stay here again in a heartbeat - and we most deffinitely did not want to leave. Thank you Abby and Len!
