Sandpiper's Rest

Sandpiper's Rest: New York

Between the wildlife refuges and empty sand of the Northern Hamptons, this cosy little bungalow awaits. It’s in the quiet hamlet of North Sea, where a handful of bakeries and restaurants can fuel your beachside days and wildlife-filled walks. An eight-minute drive (or under an hour’s walk) takes you to the soft sand of North Sea Beach.

The bungalow itself is a haven of beachy charm, with crisp white walls keeping things feeling bright and airy inside. Lightwood floors and pops of yellow from the breakfast bar chairs add to that holiday vibe. The modern kitchen has everything you need for self-catering, including a wine fridge to keep your whites and rosés cool. Spend evenings in the living room, where a striking, floating wood-burner takes pride of place and glass sliding doors let the sunlight stream in. In the private backyard, you’ve got a patio for alfresco meals and a barbecue for sunny evenings.
