Hope to return soon.

The grounds were spectacularly lovely in the way that subdued Connecticut way. Peaceful. The screened in porch added to the size and charm of the cottage. The house itself was comfortable. The kitchen was surprisingly well equipped for its size. It was a perfect peaceful place to retreat from the world for a little while.

I loved staying at the cottage on this property. The entire property is beautiful, well-maintained and in a great location. Not too far from anywhere you'd want to go. I am thinking of booking the cottage at this time next year.

Above and beyond expectations. Beautiful property. The guest house could have been it's own property if there were more rooms. Clean and cozy! The porch was so nice my wife said she was bummed we were so busy that weekend that we didn't get to spend more time out on the porch.

It was just what we needed for an escape...a beautiful, peaceful location and the house was just right for the two of us and our dog. Plenty of needs taken care of with the kitchen set-up and the screened in porch was the best! We spent most of our time out there as the property is just so lovely that the view alone was worth the trip. As was the trip to Ferris Acres Creamery for a hot fudge sundae! Would definitely go again....it must be gorgeous in the fall.

We had a wonderful time at the guest house. It was clean and comfortable - we really enjoyed the big yard for our dog and the screened in porch to relax on. We will definitely stay again.

Really enjoyed my stay here. Janet & Steve were very helpful. The place was cozy and clean with everything I needed. Heat and air both worked well. Bed was super comfy. Screened in porch lovely to work in on warm days. Quiet roads where I cycled. I practiced my yoga outdoors on the green lawn. For a country respite, I'd recommend.

Had the most perfect stay at Janet & Steve’s guest house. Our dog loved the space to run & play in the backyard, and the rental was exactly what we needed for a 4 day stay in Connecticut. The bed is SO comfortable - we had the best sleep we’ve had in months! Thank you, Janet for being the perfect host. We can’t wait to come back again!

Would have been happier here if the listing was accurate, there isnt much charm here. Old building retrofitted as a rental. Nothing wrong per se just old (minus the character of the surrounding properties). Reasonably tidy although paint, blinds, carpet, ect all at the point of being truly clean. Owners working with whats there but its dated at best. Nice property though rural to be sure. Overstatement to say there is much of anything in walking distance. Bieng in a rustic setting we also walked into a place which was cold, full of beetles, and over our short stay we dealt with two dead mice. Properties electrical and plumbing is retrofit and it affected our stay in that there are only 4 circuits in the house and the microwave killed one of those four circuits knocking out some heat and other sockets. In the end the owner in my case was unreasonable and reactive causing us to leave on poor terms. Problems arising from a discussion stemming from what I felt to be a lack of of response to some of the aforementioned issues. had the management not alienated us we ultimately would have stayed longer if not just for our own convenience. Expect a mediocre place in a nice setting and hope not to have to talk much with management and its ok for the price but is certainly is oversold in the listing.

This was perfect for me and my husband to stay. We came back to Newtown to visit family and friends and the cottage was delightful. The weather was warm enough for us to sit out on the screened in porch and enjoy the afternoon warmth and setting of the sun. Perfect location and perfect proximity to great restaurants. We will definitely return to this gem next year.

We had a relaxing visit in Newtown. We didn’t most days seeing the coast and even took a day trip to Providence RI.
The setting at the VRBO is quintessential New England.

We are from Colorado and we’re venturing out of the state for the first time, post COVID-19. We have close friends in Bethel, CT and wanted to be near them for mutual activities. It was the perfect place for us as we were only15 minutes from our friends and yet far enough away to enjoy the peaceful scenery on our drive. We were also close to the Ferris Acres Creamery that serves some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had. One of our intentions on this visit was to get some RnR following a string of ailments(yes, including contracting COVID-19) and we were able to accomplish that as we awoke on quiet mornings and enjoyed the view from the enclosed outdoor patio. I would recommend this location for others and will return given the opportunity to do so.

This was a sweet little cottage behind the big house. The back yard was serene, the screened porch was lovely with a gas fire pit. We had a little problem with fresh towels but the host was responsive and things were resolved right away! Great little spot to come to after a long day at music festival!

Thought I'd try something other than a Hotel for a 4 day business trip. Was able to bring my pup! The location was beautiful, peaceful and on the top 5 list of quiet!

This is a real gem and you would be glad to stay here. A cute little cottage on a well kept property. We enjoyed the spacious screened in porch as well and our pups did too. The cottage is clean with nice comfortable furniture. Our host was always available if we needed her. We had everything we needed. We highly recommend this perfect place.

This is a great little cottage with everything you need, plus some. Enjoyed the screened-in patio and gas fire pit!

Peace and serenity
From the screened in porch you look out onto a sprawling lawn with beautiful trees. The guest house is very private. The owners thought of everything for a pleasant stay. For us, it was the little things....gas stove, plenty of hot water, plenty of anything you need to be comfortable. We are planning on another stay at the guest house.

Wild turkeys
Had everything we needed. Communicated a few suggestions to owner for future. Watch for the wild turkeys in the early morning hours and enjoyed the serenade of frogs at night. Private and quiet. Pastoral views.

Incredibly cozy cottage on a beautiful property. The king size bed is very comfortable. My kids loved running around the yard and the porch doubles the size of the cottage. We live in the area and needed a place to stay for a bit.

The weather was so-so through our 5 day stay but it didn’t really matter. We loved the space, the location, the country atmosphere, and that amazing deck. I spent as much time out there as I did inside. The host were very accommodating and great to interact with. I look forward to staying here again!

We recently stayed at this guest house while visiting with family during a difficult time. The guest space was larger than we had expected from the listing photos and had everything we needed for a family of 4 to have a quiet, cozy place to retreat to each night. The kitchen is VERY well stocked, and serves us well for breakfast each day. Our children easily shared the aero bed made available to use, and the king bed in the single bedroom is high end hotel quality comfortable. We did not enjoy any of the porch or outdoor space options because of our winter visit - but we would certainly return other times of year. There is not much near this area - but we needed to be near family, so location was perfect for us.

An i Idyllic Haven
I came up to CT to spend time with my father who recently went into hospice. I chose the property based upon the beautiful pictures on the site. When I arrived, however, the property and its surroundings were even more peaceful and comfortable than I imagined. The guest home is so thoughtfully appointed, flooded with natural light, and comfortable. And the vista from the back porch is truly idyllic. I felt as though I was in movie called “Autumn in Connecticut”. Truly a great find during a trying time. And the hosts could not have been kinder or more attentive. It really is very special place, and I feel fortunate to have come upon it.
