We were an older siblings family of 5 well acquainted with Bristol and this home was a secret surprise. All of us worked in the wonderful kitchen without bumping elbows.The view from the porch overlooking a remarkably quiet working harbor was unforgettable. The owner's decor in art pieces was a rare treat in a rental home. A
