Host massively misrepresented the property: it does not meet standard building or safety codes. It will have no running water during a power outage (which are frequent) as the well pump is powered by another property with an inconsistent generator not run 24/7. There was limited internet & weak cell reception, despite host assurances of both. The host was rude and unhelpful. She left a dead mouse in a trap for me to deal with upon my arrival, and admitted she had not cleaned the property before my arrival. The “swimming pond” is stagnant and unfit for swimming. STAY AWAY!!!

Everything from the charming home to the beautiful property was lovely. It was truly a home away from home for almost three months! We adored every minute!

We spent a fantastic 5 weeks at the Beehive. The house is well stocked with dishes and beds. The perfect getaway with friends and family. We cooked, relaxed, swam in the pond, painted, and enjoyed. Easy drive to a ton of farm stands, markets, and other essentials. Our daughter went to camp. It is a great location. We would definitely come again. Gwen was excellent with communication and we felt well taken care of.

The Beehive is located in beautiful, serene surroundings. Cornwall Bridge is a lovely town ideally situated with easy access to outdoor activities, fine dining, antiquing, etc. Gwen is an exceptional host - generous, thoughtful, patient and helpful. She went the extra mile for us by arranging for internet service to the house. Communicating with her was a breeze - always prompt with her responses. We truly appreciate her letting us stay and for taking care of our needs. Thanks, Gwen!

This house is a perfect match for me and my active family. Surrounding rustic area excellent for trail walking.

This house is close to 200 years old, but well maintained. Gwen the owner is freindly, and helpful with any issues. Property is convenient to main roads to Sharon, Goshen, Kent, etc., on hill with some mountain views. New heating system for hot water and hydronic radiators. Plenty of parking. No road noise. Washer and Dryer in basement.

We had lovely month in Cornwall Bridge. The house is very basic but had all the necessities for our stay. The kitchen was well outfitted although disorganized. When we arrived, the house was quite dirty (lots of dust, cobwebs, dead bugs, etc.), so we spent the first two days of our time there getting it in better order. I suggest that guests bring their own linens. The overall community was very friendly. We enjoyed meeting neighbors and taking walks in the woods. Don't miss the sculpture walk!

I just spent one month at the Beehive guesthouse. If you are looking to get away from all of the hustle and bustle and find some peace and quiet, this place is for you. With only 11 other houses on this private road, you climb up the side of the mountain and into an oasis of chirping birds and crickets and the buzzing of insects to fill the air. It is an old farmhouse. It is simple and not pretentious. It has everything you need. Yeah, you are going to get some insects and moths inside with you (and somehow I still can't figure out, a bird made it in!)....but isn't that part of the country charm? I have never in my life drank water so perfectly clear, clean and refreshing. I had such great joy watching the fascination of my cats as they watched out the windows and held conversations with chipmunks in the mornings, and as they watched the swirl of moths in the evenings. All of the neighbors that I met were so friendly, welcoming, and inviting. I enjoyed hopping around to the various farm stands and farmer's markets (one of the neighbors, Alisa, sells produce grown on the mountain on Saturdays in West Cornwall) to get supplies for my daily meals. Megan's farm located at the Kent Land Trust, just south of downtown Kent even has a freezer full of local farm raised meats for sale! Make sure to bring singles, fives and change with you for the farm stands to pay for your goods as you can stop in day or night and help yourself to what you need. I loved my stay at the Beehive and in Cornwall so much that I have just put an offer in on a property two streets away!
