Photos and Description of the Londonderry vacation farmhouse rental 3 bedrooms/sleeps 6 to 8. 1 1/2 bath.

Dating from the early 19th century, the house is a classic Vt. farmhouse and has enormous charm. Many of the rooms are super sized. Our family has owned it for 75 years and have decorated it with family antiques, art, and Oriental rugs. There's a library, a fireplace and grand piano & a dining table that seats 10. Lovely views can be seen from several rooms. Well-equipped gourmet Ikea kitchen with Cuisinart, cookbooks, spices, herbs. The house is surrounded on all sides by open fields, and there's a maple sugar lot and woods to the west. We are half way up Hell's Peak with a gorgeous view of both Magic (Glebe) and Stratton mts. and the 60-acre property is ringed with smaller mountains. Our front yard features these views, and our large lawns extend to the front, rear, and side of the house with many beautiful flower beds. The picnic area overlooks the view of Magic Mt. and fields. Many of our clientele return again and again so great is their enjoyment of our property & the area.

Our wonderful stay @ the Humphrey House

HeidiAnne Liverpool, NY
Review Submitted: November 26, 2006 Date of Stay: November 2006
My family and I spent a long weekend at the Humphrey house at the beginning of November. This home exceeded our expectations in every way. I would not call this house a "rental" it was a Home!

There were so many rooms and such beautiful fine points to look at in each room. We spent a great deal of our time in front of a roaring fire in the large comfortable living room. The size of the home was perfect for our family. Our nephew had a wonderful time exploring all the rooms, opening and closing the numerous doors. The rooms were snug and comfy especially the bedrooms and the TV room.

My family and I were delighted with the cleanliness of the home. The kitchen was perfect for cooking all our meals, it had every kind of appliance we needed, and there was even an outdoor gas grill.

The grounds were beautiful with the mountain range in the background, they were perfect for flying a kite and taking long walks.

It was a peaceful, relaxing weekend get-away that was made even more pleasant by the kindness and generosity of the owners.

Old charm and new conveniences

Apollona Amherst, MA. USA
Review Submitted: October 24, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
My husband and I stayed at "Humphrey House" for two weeks during the foliage season early in October of this year. The house was all we hoped it would be and the surroundings are spectacular. Renovations to the old farm have been done tastefully and the period furniture adds a great deal of charm. There are several easy chairs and a couch, all with good reading lights, as well as clean and comfortable beds, and a well equipped kitchen. The library is versatile and interesting, so much so that our own books were neglected. After staying in many vacation rentals I add that Humphrey House is the first with good art on the walls. Excellent opportunities for hiking and appealing villages are within short driving distance. We also very much enjoyed taking after dinner strolls on the property: rolling meadows with old apple trees, flanked by dense forest. There are several good restaurants nearby. We made use of organic produce, etc. available in Londonderry, which is within walking distance from the farm. The owners are more than gracious. We hope to return...

Wonderful relaxing vacation

Michael and Danette Chester County, Pa.
Review Submitted: August 13, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our stay at the Humphrey's Farm was fantastic! The house was beautiful, big and relaxing and the views from the front yard are amazing! We did not want to leave! We explored the property and the surrounding area. We visited many fun places including Bromley Ski Resort- in the summer they have the Alpine Slide and a great zipline plus many other attractions for the kids. We also went antique shopping and exploring from Quechee Falls all the way down to Brattleboro. We'd love to go back again and again. We can't remember coming home from a vacation feeling so refreshed. The owners were wonderful and answered all our questions with such grace and kindness. This property is 100% all the way around. A+ Thanks again, Michael, Danette, Amanda and Michaela.

Guestbook Comment

HAC201372 Frederick, MD
Review Submitted: April 8, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
What a cozy and historic retreat to get away in! So, I wanted to take a trip to Vermont in the fall and I bundled 3 kids up in car with a portable DVD player and headed north. Our stay was nothing more than picturesque and beautiful - it was a wonderful time of year to visit [October] and the rolling mountains visible from the back yard even more vivid and beautiful than I could have imagined. Lots and lots of space in the house for everyone to breathe and a kitchen window big enough for me to cook dinner and watch the children while they played in the leaves outside. Kathryn was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. One of my children accidentally knocked over a lamp and she was so kind and understanding while I was absolutely sick over it. Anyway - the house just has so much character and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a rural getaway. It's romantic, yet family oriented. It feels like home!

We loved it! The location was great for exploring Southern Vermont. The house was beautiful and loaded with historical charm. And the views were incredible. We especially loved the huge stone fireplace. We would love to return someday!
