    Check Availability
     
    "On a Long Island Sound cove where swans feed in the wetlands. On daytime busy street in a historic district, an oyster-fishing village at the turn of the century. Minutes' walk to Long Wharf Theater. Plenty of privacy with a warm welcome. Very convenient location. A Queen Anne house that has had the magic touch of the owners. All those bay windows planned by the Host Architect and designer and Raquel, a Californian who worked for a Park Avenue Interior Design Firm, furnished eclectically, with drapes and lace and Mediterranean, equestrian and safari themes. Some Long Wharf actors stay for months. Theatergoers and Yale visitors love this place. Corporate guests come for overnight or for small conference. Sometimes there are Art Receptions or Business Open House in this gracious home." -- Bernice Chesler's Bed and Breakfast in New England - Chronicle Books
