Weekend stay for wedding
Serene and peaceful, this weekend getaway was so good for the soul. The horses and donkeys in the lower level of the barn each had their own unique personalities that enhanced the festivities. Walking around the property accompanied by three happy dogs while hearing the goats bleating and the chickens crowing in the background only added to the quiet winter magic. A huge thank you to our wonderful hosts.

Beautiful and specious
I came to this property because it looked cozy, and quiet. My partner and I had a very rough year mentally and physically with both of our healths. We came here and totally relaxed. I went in the pool, read my book, took naps and had a great time. The hosts were nice. The animals were friendly. It was perfect!

Special property!
How fun to stay above a hose barn in such a spectaular spot. The apartment was much more spacious than we expected and really fun! As we sat poolside for a little bit we watched Frank driving his tractor, heard animals chatting and played with the dogs. It was the perfect spot to call home during our high school reunion. Loved it and hope to return again some day!

Luxury BNB with beautiful surroundings and farm fun!
Staying at Juliana's place was perfect blend of luxury and nature. Upstairs above the barn is a beautiful apartment, immaculately clean and designed with taste and style. From the plush towels to the wine in the fridge, we enjoyed every minute -- and bonus, bed was super comfortable.
Downstairs we were greeted with friendly horses, shepard dogs, barn cats, and even 2 donkeys! Walking the grounds was a breath of fresh air and the owners could not have been nicer! We will definitely be staying again!

The entire experience was over my expectations! From an early check-in, to the most adorable animals (kudos to the friendliest dogs and cat ever) and the donkey who wanted to come in my car how with me lol. The pool with a pergola and peaches to pick off the tree were an added bonus. I felt like I was at an Italian villa. I will definitely come back ever year. Even the music selection while I swam was on point!!!

Beautiful property! Great hosts.
Huge apartment above barn. Bright with lots of natural light. Plenty of room for 4 adults to sprawl out. 2 bedrooms, living room, eating area, French doors to outside balcony big enough for chairs overlooking beautiful view. Lots of closets. Even a small office space.
Note that the eating area has a small refrigerator and microwave, not a kitchen. There are plenty of dishes, but no convenient way to wash them. We rinsed dishes in bathroom sink and the hosts washed them later. This was fine for breakfast and takeouts.
Spotlessly clean, even the barn. Perfectly tended grounds. The hosts let us store our 4 bikes in a vacant stall.
The hosts are friendly and available but not intrusive. Children would LOVE this place. Most of the animal interaction is optional and/or from a distance, but expect to be greeted by friendly dogs.

Loved our stay! What a unique and special property!
The apartment was sooo spacious, comfy, clean and beautifully decorated. Loved the outdoor balcony overlooking the gorgeous farm grounds. The owners were so welcoming and helpful with area activities and restaurants and stuff. We loved petting all the horses, the donkeys, goats and their two playful lovable doggies. We took advantage of a warm sunny day and spent an entire morning and afternoon poolside (the owner had so nicely blown up rafts for us to float on too). There were so many little nooks and sitting areas that we didn’t even get to enjoy because our stay was so short. Definitely want to go back and be able to take advantage of those, the hiking trails and more time with the animals! Can’t stress enough how impeccably clean the stables were and how meticulous all the landscaping was. CT is beautiful but this spot on 14 acres was a piece of magic hidden away from any hustle and bustle. We are already picking out our next dates to book and looking to extend!

Wonderful Stay!
My mom flew up from Fl and I drove down from Western Mass for a relaxing weekend. The space is very clean, the living room is super cozy and beds were comfy. The view of downtown Hartford is crazy, hard to believe it's so close because it feels so far. Frank and Julianne were amazing hosts, seemed happy to introduce us to the animals and provide recommendations. Simsbury and Bloomfield are very close and have great restaurants. It helps to be an animal lover to stay here because meeting the cats, dogs, horses and donkey were a major bonus for us. The BDL airport is super close. I'm section hiking the New England Scenic Trail and was able to get to the trial on foot just a short walk up the road. This would be a great place to rest and recharge if you're thru-hiking.
