Location. Location. Location.
Historic Downtown / Central New Bedford
Welcome to Millie's, nestled within the historic Taber Building (circa 1815), a truly special place close to everything. Situated above Cork Wine and Tapas, this luxury two-story penthouse offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience in the heart of bustling Historic New Bedford.
Check out our video of Millie's to get a better view of the space! https://youtube.com/shorts/d3k981O65_w
Sleeping Arrangements: ( Sleeps 5)

Bedroom #2 (Loft, 2nd floor): Queen bed
All beds feature pillow-top mattress covers, high-quality pillows, and high-thread-count sheets.
Guest Sleep Area: Twin mattress in a small loft (not a private bedroom) with ladder access.
Bathrooms:
Each bathroom includes a stand-up shower, plush towels, a hairdryer, and travel-sized shampoo, conditioner, and soap.
Kitchen:
The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need — a Keurig coffee maker, Smeg tea kettle, starter coffee K-cups, teas, creamer, and Monin flavored syrups.
Experience Nearby:
Stroll to a wide variety of restaurants, bars, shops, and museums. Just a 5-minute walk to ferry terminals for Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cuttyhunk.

Open-concept, central, chic, and cozy. Perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Located above Cork Wine & Tapas, which offers great dining and occasional live music (primarily in summer weekends).
Important Notes:
Cork Wine & Tapas occupy the 1st and 2nd levels of the building. Millie's occupies the 3rd and 4th level. During weekends, live music and private events may take place in Cork, mainly in summer months. Uber is recommended for exploring further afield.

About the host
Hosted by Jen and Al Peters
I truly enjoy creating beautiful spaces and providing the best possible experience for my guests. Hosting allows me to combine my passion for design with my love of hospitality—there’s nothing more rewarding than making someone feel at home while they’re away.
Outside of hosting, I enjoy spending time with my family. I love being outdoors—whether it’s going for long walks or enjoying fresh air with my two dogs, millie and walter.
