Description
Circa 1880. Located on a reclaimed stone quarry, this 1880 farmhouse and newly- built carriage house sits 300 yards from a one-room schoolhouse still in use. The inn features Arts and Crafts décor with Stickley and Amish furniture accented by hand-knotted Persian carpets. Two guest bedrooms in the main house each boast whirlpool tubs surrounded by granite, wood floors and skylights. The one-bedroom apartment offers a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, washer and dryer. Luxurious comfortable surroundings include a great selection of current books and an outdoor hot tub. The quiet hillside setting boasts a flagstone walk with stone bench and finch feeder, a meadow, fragrant cutting gardens and a fountain. Sit in an Adirondack chair by the spring-fed pond or take an invigorating dip in the cool water. Dine in the famous Moosewood Restaurant and ask about the town's best new places to eat.
