The Landmark Trust USA
Historic vacation rentals close to winter activities a unique way to celebrate winter
707 Kipling Road Dummerston, VT 05301 802-254-6868 This winter, try something different for your seasonal getaway. Instead of a ski resort or condo community, rent one of the unique historic homes of the Landmark Trust USA. On the charming Scott Farm apple orchard property, there’s the cozy one-bedroom Sugarhouse and an 1849 farmhouse that sleeps up to eight with an expansive morning view. The 1802 Amos Brown House sleeps six, and you can walk out your front door to ski, snowshoe, or go snowmobiling. You’re also half an hour to skiing and snowboarding at Mount Snow. You can also rent Rudyard Kipling’s four-bedroom Naulakha home or its neighboring Carriage House or Stable, all of which are 10 minutes from Brattleboro’s shops, restaurants, museums, and brew pubs. Easy access to cross-country skiing, and snowshoes are always provided.
Hill Farm
Escape to a Winter Retreat You'll Never Want to Leave.
458 Hill Farm Road Sunderland, VT 05250 802-375-2269Close to Bromley Mountain and Stratton Mountain Resort, Hill Farm offers a different way to spend a Vermont winter. A historic working farm turned boutique hotel in Sunderland trades ski-town bustle for woodsmoke and quiet snow-covered fields, with cross-country skiing and snowshoeing right on campus. Ski groomed downhill slopes by day, or skip the slopes entirely, then settle in for an inviting winter cocktail and a delicious meal just a short distance from the warmth of your room at The Restaurant at Hill Farm. Near Manchester, it's the slower half of a ski trip, or a whole trip on its own.
