Amazing house and location

The house is a beautiful updated old farmhouse next to an amazing local farm with a market where you could eat three meals a day. It’s a quick 15 minutes to Portsmouth and even though at the house you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere, there’s everything g you need within a quick walk or drive.

Emery Farm Idyll

Lovely restored antique farmhouse with super chill vibe, just a short walk up past the blueberry bushes from the Market & Cafe at Emery Farm that you can look over and beyond to Wagon Hill Farm across the road. Spacious and fully equipped kitchen with a fantastic island for prep, cooking or just sitting and having a cup of coffee, plus a full dining room and comfortable living room. Upstairs the beds were cozy. The master bathroom had an amazing soaking tub, plus a walk-in shower. Three full baths total made it easy for all 6 of us to get ready for a wedding in South Portsmouth

Beautiful getaway on an amazing farm!

This destination was quite a treat. The house was beautiful and well kept. The location couldn’t have been any better from the Whittemore center at UNH. There are gas stations and grocery stores nearby along with some cool fishing spots. David was a great responsive host. I would book this place again! (I probably will)

Charming

My husband and I with our grown children had a wedding in a nearby town in Maine. This was a beautiful cozy house to spend time together without the disconnection of hotel rooms. We walked to the lovely store down the hill for coffee and breakfast sandwiches and spent time in nearby Portsmouth. I would absolutely stay here again

Simply wonderful!

The property was just as pictured. Welcoming and comfortable. We were attending a family wedding nearby and it was just what we needed for our 6 adults and 2 year old . Nice yard for toddler to run around and the walk down to the farm stand nextdoor was easy and fun with the chickens and goats and play tractor to drive. Our host called the evening we checked in to make sure it went smoothly and to let him know if we needed anything. Everything was perfect. Would highly recommend. Thanks again!

Beautiful property in a beautiful setting

We were three couples staying for the weekend, and thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The property sits on a large farm that is fascinating to explore. The Market, within walking distance on the property, is a great place for coffee, and breakfast fare. The host is very gracious, and makes you feel very much at home. We hope to return again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property! Everything was as described and our host, David, was delightful. The attention to detail exceeded our expectations - from the charming decor (love the crystals hanging in the kitchen windows!) to cozy blankets in the tv room to the thoughtfully provided toiletries. Our accommodations were top notch! Thank you, David!

Wonderful

My husband and I, both in our 80s, have mobility issues, and renting a place where all of the bedrooms were upstairs seemed impractical. But we were so glad we listened to our hearts and chose this place. The entire property is beautiful and well-tended. The air is fresh and clean; the water tastes great right out of the tap. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch watching honey bees gathering pollen from the rhododendrons growing by the front porch. This family has maximized the assets of their farm and created a heathful, environmentally sustainable operation. Solar panels dot the property, and there is a EV charging station at the house. The cafe on the property serves delicious breakfast sandwiches and sells products made in the area. The host sent us detailed information about the property well in advance of our stay. He called us the day of our arrival to welcome us and ask if we needed anything. We knew he would help us any way he could. Our party consisted of my husband and I and our two adult daughters. All of us loved being in the farmhouse. And the stairs? There’s a good solid handrail, which all of us held onto, and we took the stairs one at a time. I’m so glad we did not let our fears from experiencing this farm. We had a wonderful stay.
