Elias Child House is located in a rural area on 47 acres of pasture and woodland. Perrin Road is extremely lightly traveled, so city dwellers may have trouble sleeping due to the silence, which may be punctuated by the singing of the night "critters" or the hooting of an owl. We are located 15 minutes away from the Audubon Society in Pomfret, lots of birds on our property including wild turkeys. We are centrally located among many tourist attractions. Several fine restaurants are within easy driving distance and the Taylor Brooke Winery is just 2 miles down the road.
