Charming 1870 cape cottage in Litchfield

A beautifully renovated cottage just minutes away from Bantam and Litchfield, this is the perfect getaway for a couple or family to visit Litchfield County. Shops and recreation are close by but you are in a peaceful and bucolic setting with views of the Litchfield Land Trust forest and minutes from White Memorial. The master bedroom has a modern ensuite bathroom. There is plenty of room for up to three kids in an open second floor space. Enjoy the outdoor bluestone terrace for sunsets and grilling. Pool access during the summer months.

Property was great and the owners thought of everything. Instructions were clear and helpful! Didn’t want for a thing, such a lovely space to spend a few days and so close to Litchfield and Bantam shops and restaurants. We loved it!!

This property was lovely. As a former resident in CT, I appreciate the New England charm. The house was pristine. Unfortunately I was in for a memorial and during a snow storm. Jeffrey and his family were so accommodating and so kind to us. I highly recommend this home. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

We stayed at this lovely New England home for Christmas. We are originally from the area and traveled to spend the holidays with family. We were lucky enough to have a white Christmas and the kids were thrilled, as we now live in NC and don’t get snow often. The hosts were lovely and attentive, even bringing over a couple of sleds for us to use and we had a blast. Would definitely recommend to anyone for this perfect country setting spot, that is also convenient to restaurants and shopping.

Jeff was an absolutely great host! The cottage was so beautiful inside and out. Everything was there, we didn't need to bring anything with us. Jeff even made sure we had a brush to clean off our cars after a snow storm. We were able to have a cozy fire with wood provided by Jeff. The cottage was so close to everything. I would highly recommended this host and property.

Beautiful home - perfect for our family to stay in over the holidays when there wasn’t enough room At the family home where we were visiting. Just note that although it states 3 bedrooms it is really 2 bedrooms - master on first floor and open space on 2nd floor (no door to the second floor) with 4 beds. It worked for my 3 kids but not sure it would work for ppl looking to have more privacy And separate bedrooms.

Hosts were very accommodating and are next door. Property is beautiful. The home is spacious, comfortable, extremely clean and well-stocked, and has that wonderful New England charm. Jeff provided reccos for dining and nature that proved to be perfect. We missed the autumn colors by a week or so….so may just have to go back to enjoy that next year

Our stay in Litchfiled was wonderful. The town offers all of the New England charm we were hoping for when we picked it. Jeff's cottage is beautiful and a great size for our party which included 3 adults and 3 children.

Jeff was so responsive throughout the entire process of getting this VRBO. I was able to get ready for my wedding with our small group and it was such an incredibly beautiful place to do it. The property is gorgeous. The cottage is wonderful, well lit, and charming for sure. We will definitely be returning!
