1840's Whaling Captain's Farm Estate, 6-10 guests

Jump back to an idyllic time when all you hear and see is nature all around. This thoughtfully restored, rustic yet elegant, property is surrounded by 72 acres of fields, brooks, and woodland, with all the amenities one could want while maintaining the home's historic charm. If you are looking for “Restoration Hardware Perfect” this might not be the property for you…think old Colonial, family home - with the texture and lived in feeling that adds to its charm. This home is in a tranquil location perfect for a friends or family retreat. You'll feel as though you've stepped back in time.

A lovely, 35 min drive to Tanglewood, Lenox & Lee , Jacob's Ladder (20), Stockbridge (45), Great Barrington, (55), Williamstown (60), and all that the Hilltowns offer - enjoy hiking, walking, swimming in waterfalls, or enjoy a day pass at Mirival Spa, lunch at the Red Lion Inn, some antiquing, The Clark Museum, Mass Mocha and innumerable gardens and historic home visits - or just lie in a hammock and read or paint while sitting on one of many patios.

There is something for everyone here at Sunday Farm. We own another VRBO property in Greenport, Long Island with 55 (5) Star reviews.

Berkshires at its best

Such a beautiful home and property. We had a great time exploring during the day and spending time together at night. Sunsets over the pond are particularly lovely and the screened in porch and sitting around a fire in the chiminea outside are the perfect spots for a cocktail. We look forward to our next visit!

Tranquil getaway!

Wow, what a spot, the house and surrounding grounds are beautiful, accurately represented in the pics. It was so nice having coffee looking at the amazing view in the mornings and a fire in the wood stove while making dinner in the evenings. Even though we were off the radar, we went into Lenox for brunch and antique hunting.The house is well furnished, kitchen fully stocked, very comfy mattress/sheets and great water pressure. Marcia was very helpful and quick to respond! Will definitely stay again, thanks Marcia!

Gorgeous Massachusetts getaway

The description of this property is spot on. It is stunningly gorgeous and we never tired of being on the patio, in the grass or exploring the many rooms of this authentic farmhouse. We loved how the original details are preserved, while having updated bathrooms and appliances. We had a group of 8-10 family/friends per night and then a family party with 20 people on the patio. The kitchen/sunroom/deck/patio made for easy circulating and serving food. Evenings on the patio with the party lights and a fire were truly special. We enjoyed every single minute. We also took lengthy walks/runs 4-8 miles (and bike rides) around the area. It is so scenic and we only saw a handful of cars, even on the paved roads.The owner was immediately responsive to questions, but we didn't have many. We pretty much used everything in the house--all the kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, etc--everything was easy. The pantry and kitchen were beyond amply stocked--this made our lives a lot easier because the area is remote with no shopping to speak of; we drove in with groceries.We really appreciated the delivery of farmfresh eggs our first morning--they were delicious.We would definitely return!
