It was amazing being able to sleep in a home that displays the history and heritage of the Bristol area. The home is spacious, offers plenty of room for a group, family, or an individual. Everything was clean and organized. I highly recommend the stay!

Location was great and very convenient for our events. House was very interesting and I’m glad we stayed. I will say that some of the rooms were not practical. Ex- there is a bedroom you aren’t allowed to sleep in. Coffee not good. Would have liked soap inBathrooms. But it was well decorated and unique. I would still recommend it for the right people.

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO in Bristol! The home was exactly what we were hoping for—clean, comfortable, and very welcoming. It was clear the hosts put a lot of care into maintaining the property and making sure guests have everything they need.Communication with the host was also excellent. They were responsive, friendly, and made the entire process smooth from booking through checkout.Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would absolutely stay here again!

The owners Monica and Daniel were amazing. They greeted us and gave us a tour and history about the house.
They are very proud of the history of their house that was like a museum.
Gathering together for 6 adults was challenging.
