It was a wonderful wedding weekend for us! With this property being our home base throughout! We were lucky enough to stay an extra night to decompress post wedding and couldn’t think of a better place to do it!

What an amazing place - it is very luxurious and located right next to everything you want to do in New Bedford. My friends and I stayed the weekend to go to the Moby Dick Marathon at the New Bedford Whaling Museum.

30th Birthday Get Away

Without a doubt the best place to stay in New Bedford. The view and location are top notch. So convenient to walk across the street and take the sea streak to Martha’s Vineyard for the day. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely be back! Big thanks to our gracious hosts for such a fabulous time.

Perfect Location in an Historic Building

I can not say enough about this property! What an awesome unique place to stay! It was absolutely perfect… clean, roomy, beautiful, and the most amazing view!! Great base for taking day trips and conveniently located across from the ferry. Restaurants and museums are in walking distance. The townhouse is located on top of the Cork Wine and Tapas.

Beautiful, historic charm and great location!

We absolutely loved this place! The history of the building and how everything was redone created such a rustic and warm feel with modern amenities! And it’s walking distance to many shops, restaurants and bars. We loved walking across the street to the marina and eating at the Black Whale, and the coffee shop and creamery were great too! It was also extremely convenient to be able to walk across the street to catch the ferry to Martha’s Vineyard as well! Such a great place!

Awesome home!

We loved the property! The home was clean and the architecture and decor were so interesting! The home had everything we needed and we felt comfortable. We had a few issues with the fact that neither bedroom is totally private but we made adjustments to feel comfortable.

About the host

Host profile image
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.

Why they chose this property

the history. I love the old stone building and cobblestone streets.

What makes this property unique

Just take a look! : )
