“What a treat having the opportunity to stay at Carol’s home. It’s a bit eclectic, which was part of the charm. A great place to stay. Very comfortable and a perfect location to explore the surrounding area. And Carol was a real pleasure to work with throughout. ”

About our home
Hello there
I am Carol an artist/designer, I own a handmade clothing boutique…check out the vintage sewing machine base in our bathroom …Mike is a world squash referee .We are avid DIY ers always doing some project or other, so things are always changing ,right now it’s a shabby chic boho look .....we love a relaxed lived in and loved feel ... We are originally from Ireland and England.....Our home is in a beachy quiet residential neighbourhood . We have 4 grownup children (I say that loosely) 3 live here in USA , one in Geneva , .with 10 grandkids ... We are mostly relaxed about our home... its vintage styled and is clean & comfortable, ITS CLEAN NOT PRISTINE .. ...not to much is precious. We would like you to feel completely at home here during your stay .Our only gripe would be someone smoking in our home. We live in the next town and would be happy to answer any questions you might have .. We had a brilliant swap with a couple in Brittany and a couple in Cognac ... also a castle in Ireland ...swapping really is a great way to see new places...
We were featured in a local news magazine

Bristol is a small seaside town within easy reach of providence Boston and New york either by public transport or by car, Cape Cod ,Martha's vineyard and Nantucket are all day trips .Our house is a great base for all these cities. Newport with its world famous mansions is 20 minutes driving distance and has hundreds of small shops and resturants .Bristol also has great restaurants many of them right on the water .Providence has waterfire and that is a must see. we are also in a great spot for the Newport Jazz and folk festivals
