Beautiful in autumn

Bantam (just outside Litchfield) is a magnificent area during the autumn. The trees around the property and in the entire area were resplendent with color and it was a joy to walk in the parks, preserves, and even in some of the streets nearby. We have stayed in many VRBO/Home Away residences over the years, and we have never encountered an owner who was more available and responsive. The owner, Laura, and her brother, Steve, were moments away both in spirit and reality. The house itself is attached, somewhat quaint, and a bit older than some. It is, at the same time, quite comfortable. It was great to have our lunches in the outside enclosure and to hear and see the Bantam River flow as the colorful leaves fell.

Such a beautiful property

My 10 year old son, puppy and I spent a month at the property and had a great time. The property is really private, beautiful and even bigger than we thought. There are a huge field, hammock, and lots of comfortable outdoor seating areas. The grounds are well-tended with lots of beautiful wildflowers growing. There is also a basketball hoop which my son used a lot. The house was pretty and very comfortable. We had lots of room to spread out and a very well-stocked kitchen. The caretakers/owners were wonderful. If there was anything we needed or asked about they would find it and were really very helpful and nice. The house is a walk to Bantam, near Arethusa, so you're walking distance to delicious ice cream, baked goods and restaurants, It's not a village where you would walk around town very much, but its very close driving distance to Litchfield and there is a lot to offer.

Fabulous

There are just a few steps down to the river. Sitting by the river and hearing the river from the house made this a very special place

A hidden gem!

My 9 year old daughter and I had the most wonderful stay at the cottage. We wanted to escape the city for a week and this was just perfect. It felt like we had entered a magical world next to the stream, surrounded by the woods with gorgeous art pieces to discover in the garden in the house. The land was incredibly private which we loved. We were very well looked after by the host - not only did they leave masks and gloves, but also water and a leaving present on the morning we left. We will definitely book again. Thank you Laura and Steve for everything.

5/5 Excellent

Sister's weekend

My sister and I had a wonderful time at Laura's beautiful home. The house was warm and cozy and we especially loved all the amazing decorations throughout the house. We both look forward to returning in the Spring!
