Location was perfect , property was beautiful and the tiny house was a much better choice than a motel room. Peaceful mornings and quiet nights while being close to amenities — Guilford Lobster pound,etc I walked to shell beach and highly recommend 1928 Speakeasy in downtown Branford . I would definitely stay again

Beautiful setting and design.

This small, beautifully designed guest house shares three acres with the owner's residence. The guest house is tucked away in the corner of the property with beautiful views and plenty of privacy. Both the building and the interior design were modern and outstanding. The small kitchen area includes a sink, coffee and tea set up, small well stocked refrigerator and complementary snacks and beverages. I believe there may be a grill available in the summer but our weather was too cold for grilling and we had take out or went out to a few of the many great restaurants in Guilford. We loved our stay and will try to stay here again when we are in the area.
