Selden Cottage is a charming, cozy, comfortable place with views of fields, stone walls and barns. It has a private driveway off a quiet road. There is excellent biking, hiking and walking from the front door. Occasionally a family of eagles can be seen training their young on the ice 100 yards from the front door. Osprey fish all summer long a short walk away. The Goodspeed Opera House, Chester Hadlyme Ferry, Fox Hopyard Golf Course, Gillette Castle and the Hadlyme Country Store are all within a few minutes by car. No one lives in this cottage. It is only available for short term rental.
- "Had a great time. The cottage was clean and very quite. Great communication with Clinton. Thank you." - "This is a delightful property that is immaculately maintained. It sits near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac at the end of a country road, very close to the Connecticut River. Coffee on the front porch is a special treat. My Merlin Bird App from Cornell (free on Apple) recorded the sounds of 12 different species of birds in just a few minutes during our first morning. While highly private, the property is convenient to a wide range of activities in the area. The owners are special people and very attentive. We highly recommend this property."
