The house was very clean and had all the amenities we enjoy. We were able to use the fire pit and outdoor hot tub. The hosts were easily accessible and responsive. My kids enjoyed running around the spacious back yard and it was the perfect location.

We really enjoyed our time at Hens & Honey, River Tillard. Ashley, our host., could not have been more responsive and accommodating. The house was very well appointed --the hot tub, the barbecue grill, the outdoor seating and fire pit, were all great. An added plus: we bought live lobsters and Ashley and Matt supplied a butane burner, and lobster pot, and sea water for boiling. All in all, it was GREAT!

Girls getaway

4 nurses (some retired), getting away to relax. We loved the location. Hot tub was great. Had everything we needed. Stairs were slippery so a non slip product would be great. We had a great time
