This old house was very cool in my opinion. The view from the front porch looking across the Sakonnet river to Aquidneck island was amazing. Enjoying coffee on the porch early in the morning you could sometimes hear a boat fighting against the incoming tide as it slapped against the water. Tons of different birds chirping away each morning (the Cornell merlin bird app was quite helpful in identifying them.) Be aware that the house is over 100 years old so it is not perfect...but that is what I found added to the charm. The rear of the property is the Peckham family's Greenhouse business so the owner is not far away if needed. We were always given plenty of space and never felt encroached on. Actually we sought them out a couple times just to chat and find out more about the house and what it was like growing up there. Despite Little Compton being a sparsely populated town of only 3600 people or so, the Main rd and Peckham rd were frequently traveled. We spent three weeks there and it was quite relaxing just hanging out. There are also a number of small shops and restaurants within a 15 minute drive...or you can relatively easily venture into Fall River, Tiverton, or over to Aquidneck island & Newport.

Wonderful old farmhouse with plenty of room for all of us! Very comfortable and accommodating. Our host was terrific. Thanks for sharing your house with us.

I just love this place. Six summers and counting.

Our first family vacation combining 3 generations. From the morning coffee on the front porch to meals in a dining room that sat everyone comfortably to ending our days playing whiffleball on the lawn and watching the sunsets and stars come out I couldnt have asked for a better spot. Plenty of spaces to sleep, bathrooms and the kitchen had all the tools and appliances needed.
