El lugar
Come enjoy the Private Guest Suite in the barn at our small gentleman's farm along the RI coast. The guest suite is a cozy, clean, peaceful spot to spend the night. We are 15 minutes from Newport, 10 minutes from Narragansett, 10 minutes from Wickford, 20 minutes from the ferry to Block Island, 15 minutes from the Quonset Ferry to Martha's Vineyard (May-Oct).
The guest suite has a small sitting room, a bedroom, and a private bath. This listing is not appropriate for children. The bedroom has a queen sized bed. There is a full bathroom with a large shower stall. There are no kitchen facilities but we provide a small (dorm size) refrigerator with freezer, microwave, and coffee pot. There is no telephone but we do have good cell service and wireless internet in the barn. There is no TV. We provide fresh linens, bath towels, and even beach towels, 2 beach chairs, and 2 boogie boards. If you want to borrow a cooler or bikes, just let us know!
Our farm was built in 1941, during WWII, as a “model farm”. A couple of neighboring families were concerned about food shortages during the war and decided that it would be prudent to build a small farm behind their summer homes. We ended up with all ten of the original buildings including the barn, a large greenhouse, and the farmer’s cottage to which we have since added on. The barn where you will be staying was originally set up for cows, sheep and pigs at one end, with the office and a bathroom at the other end. It is currently occupied by four horses at one end, and the guest suite at the other end with a private entrance. (You may hear the horses moving around during the night but usually they are quiet and outside the barn in their paddocks.) The barn is a separate building that you can pull up to and park next to. It is across a large yard from our house. We also have a dog, a cat, a rabbit, and some chickens. Although we are not doing much “farming” at the moment, there is a wonderful Farmer’s Market just up the road every Saturday morning.
If you like peace and quite, and like farms, you will love this spot!
No smokers please. No pets allowed - we have plenty!
We are walking distance to a public bus stop and 15 minutes to trains at either the Kingston (AMTRAK) or Wickford (MBTA) station. We will gladly pick you up at the train or airport if we are available.
Disponible para huéspedes
Our guests are welcome to explore our farm property but should not be entering any other buildings when not accompanied by us.

We have just added beach towels, 2 beach chairs and 2 boogie boards for our guests. Enjoy!
We just ask that you respect our property. We do not allow guests with children. We are strict about the two person limit. Please do not smoke anywhere on the property. Do not use any candles, incense, etc in the guest suite. We ask that you park right next to the barn by the Adirondack chairs. Check out is by 11am - please call or text me when you are leaving so I know the room is empty and ready to be cleaned. Thanks and enjoy your stay!

My husband and I live on a small family farm along the coast of Rhode Island. We are an active family who enjoys spending our free time horseback riding, sailing, road biking, mountain biking, surfing, skiing, and hiking. We also have a passion for renovating old houses! The space we offer is across a large yard from our house, so it's very private and separated from our routine - except when I'm feeding or dealing with the horses. We find this spot to be the best of both worlds - farm life and beaches!!
