Circa 1790. One of Vermont's original land grant farmsteads, Hill Farm Inn has welcomed guests since 1905 when the widow Mettie Hill opened her home to summer vacationers. The farm is surrounded by 50 peaceful acres that border the Battenkill River. Guests can relax and enjoy the simple life and visit the inn's sheep, goats and chickens or soak in the 360-degree views of the mountains. Accommodations are charming and cozy, and summer guests have the option of staying in one of four cabins. A large, country breakfast of homemade fare starts off each day.

Innkeeper Note

We're so lucky to be able to offer our guests a special Vermont country experience -- we have fifty beautiful acres of open space with nature trails, farm animals, and fabulous views in every direction. Many of our guests come to hike,canoe or try fly fishing in summer, or to ski and snowshoe in winter. We are also fortunate to be just five minutes away from the shops and restaurants in Manchester.

My husband and I had an excellent time at the Hill Farm Inn: the room was wonderful, the breakfast was EXCELLENT and the animals were sweet. We will be returning and highly recommend the Inn to anyone staying in or around Arlington.

We loved the "farm"!!!! The farm aspect of this Inn nicely adds to the ambiance of the Inn. The animals in the fields and barn not only delight children but also the "child" in us. Our suite (Battenkill) was nicely furnished, comfortable and we liked the separate sitting room to watch tv (with a video selection from the innkeepers)along with a small refrigerator for our snacks and drinks we like to bring with us. We also enjoyed the porch off from our suite. We relaxed with our drinks and could see the farm's beautiful surroundings. The afternoon refreshments (aw, the smell of freshly baked cookies....) and drinks they provided were delicious and please don't leave the Inn in the morning without taking the time to enjoy their wonderful home made country breakfast choices. Absolutely, positively delicious...... Lisa and Al, the Innkeepers/Owners sure made our stay (two nights) very memorable. We will be back....

I have already taken the liberty of changing the meaning of relaxation in the dictionary to 'Hill Farm Inn.' Thank you. . . It was great.
