About this property

Country home in lovely Little Compton: stone walls, fields, woods, sky, beach

Family-friendly home on a peaceful, rural cul-de-sac, surrounded by nature—stone walls, pasture, woods, wildlife, sky—near the town Commons and beaches. Nicely landscaped property. Perfect for families and anyone seeking peace and quiet in a glorious natural setting. And...since Little Compton is the perfect place for reading, there's a small but eclectic (even eccentric) library in the house that guests are free to peruse—as long as the books stay in the house!

3 bedrooms, 2 baths on two floors. Deck off a fully-equipped kitchen. Mudroom and attached garage. Cable TV, WiFi, washer & dryer, dishwasher, wifi. Eclectic library. Outdoor shower for after-beach clean up. Walk to the town Commons and a quick trip to the beaches. Quaint, unassuming, easy, no-hassle summer living.

Little Compton is a rarity in the northeast—unspoiled, unaffected, easy-going living in a farming/summer community surrounded by water.

Guests will become reacquainted with the sky and light, clouds and the weather, the sound of wind and the feel of air. And birds.

Exactly What We Wanted!
Everything the ad says is accurate. The public beach is about 2 miles away, the property is at the end of a very quiet, private road, the yard is peaceful. We saw turkeys and deer. We heard a dozen different birds. The owner provides ample amounts of beach towels and kitchen supplies. We are definitely considering a return visit next summer if the dates work out!

Great location and property with both enjoyable outdoor and indoor living with enough space for 4 to 6 adults. Walkable to the town common with dinning options. Great area for riding a bike. Enjoyed out stay!

Rhode Island Getaway
We enjoyed our stay in Little Compton. John's house was clean and spacious, with a huge back yard for the dogs. All of the bedrooms have window AC units so that the summer heat is tamed. The bed was comfortable. The location is really good - a short drive to a lot of interesting places like Newport, Mystic and New Bedford. So it's a good central place to base out of to explore southern New England. There is also some very nice cycling in the area if you like that sort of thing.

Idyllic Getaway
We had a wonderful time at this spacious, beautiful, well stocked home. Relaxing on the deck or hammocks provides a perfect view of a spectacular backyard garden. We also loved using the outdoor shower after daily explorations of local beaches and nature walks. This was a perfect spot for a week of relaxation!

Lovely home with large backyard in a private setting close to beaches. Quiet, clean and comfortable.
The home was spacious and bright with a well stocked kitchen and all amenities. The location was convenient to everything and John ( the host) was available and responsive. We enjoyed relaxing on the deck and in the backyard. We had a wonderful week and enjoyed staying at this property. Would definitely rent again.

About the host

Hosted by John Pitts

Host profile image
The house is owned by my three sisters and me, but I am the principal contact on VRBO. I am a book publishing professional living in New York City. My sisters live in Providence, Boston and Woodstock, VT. We grew up in Providence and summered in Little Compton. We all return to Little Compton year-round, especially in the summer. It's truly a rarity in the northeast: unspoiled, unaffected, easy going living in a farming/summer community surrounded by water.

Why they chose this property

Surrounded by stone walls, woods and pasture, the house is serene and private. Depending on the time of year, the property is visited by deer, coyote, fox, rabbits, skunks, raccoons, wild turkey, all sorts of songbirds, hawks, falcons, owls, and hummingbirds. You will become reacquainted with the sky and light, clouds and the weather, the sound of wind and the feel of air. Close to the town Commons and beaches.

What makes this property unique

Peace, tranquility, privacy, rural ease and simplicity, glorious climate, natural beauty, flora and fauna, history, good books.
